maystone: (Four alpacas)
[personal profile] maystone
He's doing OK, but not great. His temperature is normal, which is a minor miracle since it's cold and damp (we just had a rain of ice pellets), but he's not nursing, and when he tries, Gertie moves away. Dar is feeding him goat colostrum to supplement; he takes that well, so that's good. Poor Dar is so tired, and I'm only good for short bursts of activity these days.

Anyway, behind the cut are two pictures of the new boy.

He's about 18 hours old in this pic. You can see the apricot
coloring on him.

Dar brought him outside thinking the daylight would help
him figure out the nursing thing. He only lasted about
3 minutes because it's so cold and damp outside.
That's mom Gertie, and big brother Valentino.
