Mom introducing Cria to the aunties 5/13/232
Our first cria (baby) of the year was born on 5/12/23 at 9:50 AM. Another MALE!!!! But, gosh, is he cute. Lots of crimpy fiber, good conformation. Up and going in about an hour. But that 18.8 pounds of cria wore his mom, Alpaca Palace's Houdini's Countess out. She was tired and sore for awhile.
Today Zinger 1 of 2023 is an independent little guy. He can often be found up by the barn while Mom is in the girls pens. Or he will be running around with Karri and Limba (both 7 months old). But he knows where to find Mom when he is hungry!
We call him Zinger 1 as his sire is Alpaca Palace's Zinger. Until he has an official name, he will be Zinger 1 of 2023.
Update 6/12/23 - This guy finally has a name - Sawdust's Linden. Linden is a Basswood found in Eurasia and North America. My nephew in Seattle, WA area has a linden tree!
