    SkyWarrior's Llama Wrangling and Goat Wrestling

    Well, okay then. I need another blog like I need a hole in the head. I haven't been keeping up with EatingWildMontana, which is where I need to be. But here goes nothing. Really. I'll try to get this stuff written up occasionally, but you may want to check out EatingWildMontana.com for my...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Llorelei is doing terrific. I've been keeping her in the barn to keep warm but she's been ransacking the place (we have a pile of trash we need to move out and she knocks that all over), trying to get in all the grain, and turning the lights on and off. Her hair is growing back and she's fat...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    I am actually happy she put up enough of a fuss to try to bite. Got to be alive to be angry enough to bite.

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Thanks. If I had been on my toes more, I might have been able to save the four boys. It sickens me that I had to bury so many this year. I guess if you take anything from this, don't trust what vets say. Even so called experts in the area. I had to correct a vet on what actually worked on...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Thank you. We've both nearly burst into tears seeing her standing up. My thought now is to make sure she's solid before decreasing all the injections. Poor thing. She must feel like a pincushion with 2-4 shots a day and stuff shoved in her mouth. No wonder she wants nothing to do with me...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    I have a loose llama running around my barn now! :celebrate Llorelei got mad at me for giving her a shot. First, she tried to bite me. Then, she got up and went to the hay bales and started eating. Every time I approached to put down water or give food she moved off. She wants to stay on...

    Thanks. I lost 4 llamas to this, including my trained packing llamas. :( I pretty much have to start from scratch. This so sucks big time. Ah well, I am lucky I have Llorelei so far.

    Not too spammy, I hope, but I'm giving away audiobooks

    Folks, I hope this isn't too spammy for you. With all the headaches with epe, I haven't posted about my publishing company's audiobook raffle going on. Basically, we're giving away one copy each of our top five audiobooks: The Lost Enforcer, Modern Sorcery, Acheron Highway, Samurai Son, and...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    More good news. Last night around 3:30 am I left Llorelei facing the back of the barn by the turkey pen. Today, my husband found her 20 feet away at the front of the barn facing the door. So, she moved big time. She wants to go back to the pen with the goats, but she's too weak. But the...

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Well, guardedly good news! Guess who stood up for the FIRST TIME since early December?:weee Llorelei wanted to get up and managed to get her front legs straightened out enough to stand. I held her vertical for maybe 30 seconds while she worked on keeping herself up. When she finally had...

    I suspect not, but their kicks look about the equivalent of a cow's kick with less weight behind it.

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Just a tiny bit bigger. I can just barely move her while she's down. Getting kicked by her isn't something I'm looking forward to but I'm expecting because of all the shots. Getting kicked by goats is laughable by comparison.

    Llorelei Needs Here Own Thread -- She's Doing Terrific

    Well, she's about 150-200 lbs, and luckily gaining weight every day. :fl A little heavy for our barn rafters. She is moving, which is very good. I caught her moving in the barn. She walks with her hind legs and walks on her front knee joint. She gets out of her poop (good) and has been...
