Ebony & Ebon

Meet Ebon! He is Ebony's boyfriend! They just met so Ebony is trying to check out her new digs for the next 2 weeks.

He is a stud, so he wants to breed, but she wants none of that right now! We took Ebony out to the stud farm today after she had been sheared. It seemed like a good time to do it...then she does not have to move all around, when we pick her up she will be going straight to the new farm.

Kiwi is a little sad I think. He is not used to living without his little sis. Thankfully he is not totally alone, he is with the horses and he knows them well as he has lived with them for a year now. But I think he will be very happy when Ebony comes back.

Yes that is Ebnoy jumping over some logs. They are not very high, she is going into the adjoining pasture area. She certianly can jump though, when I took her off the trailer she jumped right at me and almost landed on me! Thanfully I moved out of the way fast!

Ebony is in a private field with Ebon, but she is checking out the other females over the fence and making friends. In about a year, next April, Ebony will have a little baby of her own! Baby llamas are only about 15 lbs at birth!! SO CUTE! Ebony will be home in 2 weeks, and until then I don't know who will miss her more...Kiwi or Me??
