Yesterday our 2011 American Alpine babies crossed the road from their juvenile paddock back home to the farm, with their llamas Dolly and Lorenzo. Every baby was born on the farm this spring, named and tagged so that we have a record of her pedigree. The babies were raised in small groups on our annex before being set loose on their first grass paddock. Now, at 90lb or more each, they are sturdy goats ready to meet boyfriend Holstein.
First time crossing the road, so they romp about instead of following Dolly Llama
