Llama Corral

On Friday we went to Liberty to pick up some gates. We also picked up a set of panels for the llama corral. We got them at the Tarter Gate Company's factory second store. They all have dents or missing pieces but still work. We picked up a few more sheep panels while we were down there. They were at Floyd Gates which isn't as high-end as Tarter but they are the only one that has the sheep panels. We spent about $300 on gates and panels but it would have been over $900 retail. We had a trailer load.

  We sold the old horse trailer a few weeks ago. We got this trailer from a guy in Waco, KY. It is a 12' livestock trailer.

 Livestock trailers are better suited for hauling a large steer to the meat packers. Charlie goes next month. He's large, really large. We didn't think he would fit in the old trailer. This one doesn't have a post in the middle, the door swings all the way open. And it has a working escape door so Lisa can get out after she leads him in there.

 We got another one of Edith's bottle lambs.

  This one is Shelby.

 Notice in this picture that Abbey is flying.

 It still gets chilly at night so they have the heat lamp. It is supposed to be in the 30s tonight so they have two lamps now.

 The small birds here are the Silver Laced Wyandottes.

 The ducks can get in the sheep water tank now. yay.

 Speedy in his new cage. He lost his halter so we knew we would have trouble catching him again.

 Molly was trying to get at Speedy's food. She was bumping at the latch and might have eventually got it open. We'll have to put a clip in the latch.
