Happy National Llama Day (yesterday)! Today we would like to spotlight our oldest girl, Georgia! Georgia and Rosie were our first farm animals ever. We bought them to guard our sheep but they are so much more than guards! They were in poor condition when we got them after not being handled or sheared for 7 years. They were afraid of people and didn't trust us at all. Georgia especially was in rough shape physically and emotionally. But over the last 3 years, with much food, supplementation, and gentle care, she has thrived! Her fiber is thick and full, her skin in much less flaky, she has gained weight, and she is more trusting than she was. She is the sweetest and gentlest of the llamas and is always up for a romp with babies. She let's the sheep snuggle with her and has been a loving auntie to Eddie. We decided to try to breed her this past spring to our classic male, Trenton. We are very pleased to announce that Georgia is pregnant and due to have her cria (baby) in March 2025!

Dayton veterinarian and founder of the Narrows Pet Cemetery, Dr. Raymond Aull, had a pet black squirrel, named Inglebore. Dr. Aull's son, Raymond Aull Jr., acquired Inglebore while traveling, likely for the USN Air Corps. Dr. Aull was known for taking Inglebore with him to events and his veterinary office. Inglebore liked to sit on Dr. Aull's shoulder and nap in his vest pocket.

Q: Are there snakes in the cemetery?
A: Yes. Snakes are found in natural environments like cemeteries due to the greenery and peaceful surroundings. They play a crucial role in controlling pests, so their presence is beneficial.

Look at these handsome guys! Even though it was over 90 degrees today, that didn't stop the studs from their daily cuddle session!
(Note: Pierre is not included in these sessions since cuddling is a hard no for him 🤣)

-The Sheep at Narrows Farm

We are working on growing a flock that is calm and friendly with people. We have narrowed down the traits we want in our sheep to fit our needs and benefit the cemetery once more fencing is done. We hope to have sweet and calm sheep for visitors to enjoy!

We are so lucky to have Latte the alpaca. This is not the first time she has seemingly herded the sheep into a group when she sees a coyote. Coincidence or intentional 🤔

Sweet llama Eddie Rose has grown up alongside pushy ewes and lambs and takes it all in stride. He will literally lets them walk all over him 🤣

Tonight was bittersweet. We sent Mocha off to her new home in Indiana! She is going to a farm that has many other llamas and who handle their llamas much more than we do. We are sad she didn't work out on our farm but are very excited to see her thrive in her new home!

Our sweet llama, Georgia, is the embodiment of what we love to see in our llamas. The sheep always seek her out when looking for a place to rest. She is patient with, and tolerant of the lambs, and always willing to let them snuggle (even in a heat wave!). She was bred to our handsome stud, Trenton, this past April. We are hoping she will bless us with a cria of her disposition next sping! 🙏 🦙
