No I mean there's fields of just llamas.

maybe they are raising them for the same reason some of them raise sheep.......for their hair.

The wool is super nice on llamas. If it's whole herds of them, they are for the wool. A llama wool sweater goes for a heck of a lot of money.

Oh wow, strange. They're not that common, there's just one farm I know of that keeps them.

Good Morning All

Thanks for getting the morning going WVC.
I take it that the roads are safe enough for big trucks?

Good morning, Café, coffee is great and much needed.

Good morning, iced coffee anyone? Off to work today, DH has today and tomorrow off, so at least "the boys" won't be alone today. The plott hound is taking Miss Wiggles death pretty hard...

FiveLittleHens, so sorry about your babies. I absolutely hate irresponsible pet owners. If you don't want your dog, bring it to the local shelter. People drop their dogs off up here too. They seem to think that "some nice farmer" will take them in and feed them. What happens is they form packs, terrorize farm animals, looking for food and eventually meet a less than pleasant end.

It's the same wherever we have lived, people dropping off 'pets' when they see horses.

Why do they think that I need/want any more mouths to feed.

I don't understand why these people don't just drop them off at their local rescue centre.

The same people that dump their trash off in the ditch, 2 miles from the dump site.

Morning! I hope you all have a wonderful day.
It was not my decision to make about the TW and yes, I was thinking she would be good for my kiddo until Woody graduates from college, so to speak. " Green on green makes black and blue!"
We will come up with another plan, but I think Woody will settle in pretty quickly. He has a "nice eye."
It rained here yesterday and I believe more is coming in. We are starting out at 54 degrees(F) this AM so the coffee is wonderful. Thanks!

But both will learn real fast what works and what will get you quickly planning a landing while your in mid-air.

I was a fast learner, only landed on my backside twice.
Good starter horses are few and far between around here.

My parents are breaking a new 2 year old paint named Rooster. Mom miscalculated when hopping on the first time and when he crowhopped to the side she went all the way over, landing on her shoulder. She had intended to roll when landing, but she realized that she isn't as young as she once was. Poor mom is pretty black and blue! Guess Rooster is getting more lunge line work for now.

Two of my doctor's favorite lines : You're not 25 anymore, and you no longer bounce when you fall. I'm not sure I like that guy.
