[@rayjr.9187]

Missed your videos glad you are back. Was so happy that Beau doing good. Kristin, you are such an inspiration, taking care of a family a business like the one you and Beau have, but even more to be able to keep going with something as devastating as your husband with cancer. I continue to pray for your family just stay strong.

Our family loves watching your videos. Glad to see that Beau is feeling better, love watching him use the llamas with Randy Newberg.

Alpacas are so cute..they look like smaller version of Lamas...like soft toys roaming around..I visited an Alpaca Farm recently in Colorado, US...it was a great experience....made a video too....can't forget that day...watching the videos itself now makes me feel so happy :) Regards!

Thank you soooo much for the training tips. There is precious little info on this topic and I look forward to seeing more. Blessings to you and yours. Stay strong.

Blue eyed llamas are pretty, but llamas with one blue eye and one brown eye are very pretty and unique!

[@sharondonelow5364]

Very interesting video! I am wondering since llamas have the same type of pupil in their eye as a horse, do they have the same type of vision also? I know a horse pointing straight ahead can see almost all the way back to their tail.

Thanks for sharing! How did you catch and halter them if they had little training? Whenever I somehow manage to put the halter and lead on my 3yo, he bucks and jumps and fights me so hard that it gives me rope burn or I get scared he will break his neck (and he's so much strong than I am). I adopted him and a 6yo female from a farm where they were really never halter trained or handled except to shear/give meds (the former owner told me to grab the base of the ear and that's how they immobilized their llamas for treatment). My biggest obstacle right now is just to even get the halter on without them breaking their necks!

Great to see you all again. Stay safe.

So many nice llamas, thanks for the training tips I tried them today on my two who are still a little hesitant on the lead, the boys did well 🦙🦙

[@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971]

So glad to hear that it is helpful! Good luck. Let us know how things help. We would love your feedback.

[@elizabethmoore4761]

Wish you would have shown how you caught & haltered the young llamas in the first place.

[@Dhelgemo]

That’s exactly what I was just saying!!!

[@neilandlizziehart902]

We are praying for you guys.

[@curtissalvesen6629]

Nice preview of next year’s studs!

[@Atlas531]

They seem incredibly docile. When you said you were behind on training, I was expecting a lot of bucking and pulling.

[@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971]

Depends on who's training them 😉

[@tommythuntdeer]

That was cool!

[@ashleefreed8242]

i love llama what do you feed them they look good

[@abelrios6567]

How long did you expose the halter to them prior to this training?

[@wherethereislight...8380]

i am getting 3 older llamas approx 5 years old not trained. i would like some advise on training them 2 females and 1 male. thank you

[@idahodogparkllc2871]

I would love some tips on how to deal with a llama that kicks! I have 2 girls that just turned 2. They had never been touch when I got them 5 months ago. They are both pretty good when it comes to walking and going over/through basic obstacles but my little female Penny absolutely hates me. I go slow, reward her appropriately, but even when I enter the pen with grain/hay she immediately pins her ears, flicks her tail, and wants nothing to do with me. It's so disheartening! Any advice or insight? Even a video you've done previously that maybe I overlooked? Thanks so much in advance! Kind regards, Laura

[@rbljackson]

This will be a great series. I went back and viewed the training baby llamas too. Quick question....do they kick as a defense mechanism? You dont seem to be very concerned with them kicking ya during the training.

[@Dhelgemo]

But how do you get them in the halter in the first place? How do I even catch them to do it?

[@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971]

Email is at [e-mail] and we will share or manual that goes over that with you.

[@ashleefreed8242]

what kind of llama breed do u guys have ?

[@mattthecat5036]

Vulcan is a small hypothetical planet that was once proposed to exist between Mercury and the Sun. 19th-century French mathematician Urbain Le Verrier thought that peculiarities in Mercury's orbit were the result of another planet, which he named "Vulcan". A number of searches were made for Vulcan, but despite occasional claimed observations, no such planet was ever confirmed. Peculiarities in Mercury's orbit are now explained by Einstein's theory of general relativity. (Wikipedia)
