Alpaca farm

We went to a alpaca farm yesterday. I thought it was just going to be a bunch of alpacas, but it had heaps of other stuff. First we saw the birds but because the guinea fowls (a flightless bird) made noise, we did not stay there for long. Next we went to the llamas. We fed one, but the other had weird teeth.

After that, we went into the kangaroo and alpaca enclosure. We were permitted to go into that space. A white alpaca got Scotia’s food and knocked it out of her hand. When we got out of that enclosure, Mum gave Scotia some extra animal food. Scotia then fed the emu. It took the food off her in a surprisingly cheeky way, so we decided to not feed the emu any more. We went down further and there was a crazy piglet and some other baby animals. After that we went even further and Mum did not give us much time at that part.  We started watching the joeys play, and they started getting a bit harsh (play fighting).

So next we fed the baby animals milk. I fed a lamb first. My lamb drank probably the slowest out of all of them. We fed a one-week-old lamb and a Scottish highland calf that was about one week old too. When we looked at the one-week-old lamb, it looked weird with its tail as lambs normally have these cut off. We fed the joeys, and the joeys were probably my favorite out of all the animals.
