It was like they could read each other's minds. Llamas are incredibly intelligent and extremely curious. Very feline-like as we always like to say.Split Rock Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18024537773861076383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562253670243573735.post-9458697539149618482011-06-16T18:20:40.175-06:002011-06-16T18:20:40.175-06:00That is pretty darn amazing.

They always come over to see what I'm doing, so I explain it all as I hike past. They seem so smart!Sharkbytes (TM)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08379841586422814410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562253670243573735.post-49013042109636057362011-06-16T08:09:55.299-06:002011-06-16T08:09:55.299-06:00Pricilla: Thank you!

Everyone just loves BJ!<br /><br />Lin: Thank you! He is incredibly soft. Most animals as they age get fiber that it fairly coarse and not very soft. Black Jack has retained the softness of his fiber. I would so very much love to shear him one more time but will need to buy him a coat to wear this winter if I make that decision.Split Rock Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18024537773861076383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562253670243573735.post-50229700926339416142011-06-15T19:36:11.688-06:002011-06-15T19:36:11.688-06:00Oh my!
