[AlpacaTalk] Re: Speaking Of Pronking!~

My three bred females 8/9 yo, will all pronk with the crias on occasion if instigated, and regardless of stage of pregnancy. The crisa like to end their laps by bumping into their respective moms and eventually the moms join in, or hide in the barn! One of them (the oldest) even starts it herself sometimes. And one acts like "ok, fine *sigh*, if everyone else is doing it...*sigh*", but you know she's secretly smiling :) I love it!!!!!
