Marsy holds her own with Trip these days; she doesn’t let him get away with anything. She’s a cutie, but I love his little black nose.
Marsy gives Trip plenty of trouble; she's a diva.
Trip still doesn’t like water, but Marsy is being a brave girl about it.
What is that thing? Why does everyone like it so much?
Dad is so cute with his ‘pacas.
Being a baby alpaca is, indeed, exhausting.
Mom says it’s like they run out of energy, and then they just plop down. It’s probably a baby thing; I doubt it is species-dependent 🙂 .
i absolutely love crias….especially the noise they make when they are trying to communicate with you…beautiful creatures…
It is totally the noises that were the surprise for us. Little Tripoli has a siren call that puts all the other alpacas to shame! And when I weighed Marsy, and she did that shudering little “Hehh” sound. So adorable.
I love the way Marsy is all majestic in her plop actually cushing vs Trip who is just sprawled out. She’s definitely got some of her mama’s diva/regality in her.
Tripoli is a clunk head, fo’ sho’. During “bump and run” (their favorite game), Marsy is now the bumper and Tripoli is the runner!
