Llamas
Llamas
They say every scar tells a story — Nala’s just happens to have a happy ending in progress.” 🦙✨
We rescued Nala (the tall brown llama) in 2022 after she had been through a life of abuse and neglect. She’s an older llama, and her many scars tell a silent story of resilience. Though she’s still a bit timid at times (especially around men wearing hats) she’s come such a long way since arriving. We get asked a lot " how long will it take for her to come around" and the simple answer is UNTIL... until she can trust again, until she feels secure again and until she can love again. Some days are better than others but until then, we count the good days as a win.
Isabelle is the tall white llama born here at the Ranch. She is a bit on the shy side but likes a good fist bump every now and then. (Hold your hand out like a fist and she will come nudge it). Llamas don't usually like to be pet as they always keep their guard up but the fist bump is their way of showing affection.
Ollie is the smaller white llama with some brown patches. He can be shy at times, but quickly forgets how shy he is when you have treats.
NOTE: When feeding the llamas, please feed them small cubes and limit it to a couple. Llamas don't need a lot and can have problems swallowing them if they are too big,
WHY LLAMAS?!
Llamas are excellent guardians for our herd. They constantly monitor the pasture. If a coyote or dog enters, llamas become vigilant and approach the intruder. They are recognized for driving the animal away from the pasture. While not aggressive, their size can be intimidating to predators. Typically, the mere act of llamas charging towards an animal is enough to make it leave the pasture.
