Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: Speaking Of Pronking!~

hi Janice - i'm glad your cria is doing well.

yes my old girl is hilarious - she is the boss of the herd and very dignified - a direct Chilean import - dignified that is until it's time to pronk and then she really gives the crias a run for their money - they can't keep up as she is very quick at changing directions and leaves them in the dust. She is the mother of a gorgeous light rose gray female born last summer and i think she might be pregnant again - i had no intention of breeding her last year but she would not leave our stud alone. She was teasing him from her side of the fence and driving him nuts and over the fence he came. She is a bit of a party animal.

We love her, she is such a character, and i hope she reaches a very ripe old age.
It's fun sharing happy stories about our alpacas - it kind of balances out the mites, and injuries, and all the other "experiences" that come along with raising these wonderful animals.

<<<<That is so cool, Wendy! Anyone else have older alpacas that pronk? I'm
curious. Also, the girls pronk a lot more than the boys do - is that par for
the course in everyone's herds?
>>>>

That is incredibly cool Wendy! I am so impressed. I thought my girl
was old at 9 - she acts old, in fact even my male has never shown one
whit of interest in her at all :-). She was so playful when she was
young......weren't we all :-).

But as to the girls pronging more: none of my females prong; hmm some to
thing of it neither of my males either. Actually only my 5yo gelding
prongs. He is large and handsome and is just a sight to behold pronging
about. Now he has a little buddy (Merry Morning) to prong with and they
have a grand time together. He is solid white, she is solid black.
What a sight they are.
