My aunt just sent this to me. She keeps llamas and alpacas, but this caught her attention, since I keep goats.
"Elderly man who has an 11 year old (more or less) female guard llama that he would like to rehome. He is single, lives alone, and is having health problems. The llama is currently in with his goats and he said she makes an excellent guard. He lives just west of Menomonie off of Highway 29. She is registered (he is looking for her papers) and he recalls her lineage is of Chilean descent."
What is your opinion? I personally am a bit wary because of the age, I'd hate to get attached and then have her pass due to age. How long do llamas live on average? I'd also need to get much more hay, since a llama eats more than my small goats. I can get hay, it just won't be cheap.
