Nature has Other Plans

After my post yesterday, I had pretty much decided to breed Keyla and the younger girls in early September when the younger girls were ready.  I just wanted to do a little math first.

This morning however, I neglected to latch the boys' gate properly.


This isn't the match-up I had planned, since we have done this match-up before.  No worries though, Keyla and Bandit make nice babies.  Check out Eduardo and Apple.  :-)

So, assuming this breeding was successful, we should be expecting our first 2012 cria around the middle of July next year.

    lmbo...oh, sorry. Perhaps I shouldn't laugh? Oh, those wonderful plans we make that get dashed to pieces. Weren't those Alpaca dogs supposed to prevent such things from happening?

    LOL. No. The very good dogs alerted me to the escapee, but they were secured in the girls' corral.

    I tried to lure him with food, but the only thing that really works is a pretty girl. ;-)

    I like Bandit's Lucky Day.

    tehehe, I am so glad I have never had that happen especially now that all of my Suri girls are gone and I have so many Suri fiber boys. My Mystery keeps the Huacaya females birthing gorgeous offspring.

    I smiled too when I saw and read this post! So much for pet family planning. :)

    Bandit's Lucky Day is good ... but a little wordy. Maybe Mr./Ms. Opportunity?

    Can't wait to see this cria next year.

    P.S. - In terms of names - what about a riff on your blog post title? Still a little wordy, but Nature's Other Plan might be appropriate. :)

    This post and the comments really make me giggle. We are going through sex ed (or rather, avoiding it) with the 12yo, I should just send him to a farm.
