At 1:05 pm PST, a male from Waypoint Viognier and Linden Hill’s Sequoia! He’s like—give me some time to learn how to stand up and drink from my dam!
Have to come up with a name- preferably related to both words Viognier and Sequoia!
Victoria & Charli
Victoria: This chin rub feels nice, but I am still new on the farm, and to you (me, her new owner).
Charli (in the back): Hey! That rub was supposed to be mine! Move over!
As You Wish: Five months old
Charli and Sequoia’s offspring!
We are thrilled that spring is almost here because we will soon be on the lookout for our first cria of 2024 in April, with ten more to follow! The female giving birth is Charli Tango (got her from Cinco C’s Alpacas)and she was bred to Sequoia of Linden Hills. Charli’s genotype is EE Aa, and although the service sire has not been tested, he has produced two white and one DRG male offspring. We are hoping for a female offspring from this pair, and since we rely on the dam's genotype, the offspring is unlikely to be white. Although we love white, we already have many at this time. Stay tuned! For more information, please visit OpenHerd Talen Ranch.
Although the temperature currently stands at 34°, which is not considered cold for us(freezing temperature starts at 32° below), we still receive a substantial amount of snowfall. However, we anticipate that the snow will begin to melt this week as we approach the onset of spring.. 🤞🏼
Can you believe it? Despite the chilly -4° weather, the male alpacas were hanging out with ease. Their super soft and snug fleece is what's keeping them warm. It's like they have their own personal heater built right in. How cool is that?
