Wanted to share a pic of our new guard, Dalai Llama. we are picking her up next weekend!
We just bought 5 goats for our new farm on 35 acres here in Larkspur, CO. We need something to help deter daytime coyotes, and reallllllly don't want to get a LGD.
Hoping she does well with the goats. Currently she is with two older llamas and they guard an alpaca herd.
I'm building a 50'x50' pen made of hog panels just outside of the barn and will split it in two with field fence. Will keep goats on one side and her on the other to get them used to eachother and their new home before letting them out in the pastures. (Also need to get some electric fence up around pasture to help deter coyotes as well)
All the animals will be locked up in the barn at night, we have not only coyotes, but bears, and lions in our neck of the woods.
Fingers crossed it all works out!
