Come join us on our journey that we call the llama life. Were we worked the better part of a decade to save up enough money that we would quit our jobs and begin living our American dream. We will take you along on all of the good days and on some of the bad days. We will focus on different aspects of our llama life such as: what it takes to be a llama rancher and outfitter, different backcountry tips and tactics we have learned over the years, how to keep and take proper care of your llamas, the changing environment of working on public land and the preservation of public lands, raising a family in today's society and even some backcountry hunting and fishing. Well maybe a lot of hunting and fishing.

Come to Guyana you’ll regret saying that 💀
Nah come to Mexico you'll regret saying that more than going to Guyana 🤦🏽♂️
Yeah, wait until Summer time 😆😆😆
Suzanne was telling him, “No touchie! Respect my agency.” lol. Beautiful animals.
That is funny

For all those who misspelled Llama, here is a poem by Ogden Nash to remember better: The one-L Lama, He's a priest; The two-L Llama, He's a beast. And I will bet A silk pajama There isn't any Three-L Lllama.
When i was a kid i didnt know the difference but now as an adult i have to tell that it is so obvius xD
So many people struggle with it. We did too, before we started this business about 10 years ago. Once you know though, it's pretty easy to tell.
I always had a hard time telling the two apart if they’re not standing side by side. But I know llamas have banana ears and alpacas have fluffy heads. 😆
I weigh more than an alpaca ... the diet starts tomorrow!!
Same here. I weigh 62 kilos
@@valeriansimmer7462 How old are you? Do you think you are fat? If you are male, you are pretty underweight, so you should be healthier than a person who is obese, lol. No need to worry
@@steel5333 depends on height dude
Same girl same.
125 pounds is fking light even for a girl. Wtf are you talking about?
I lived in Peru as a child and grew with them My dad was a mining engineer I live in oregon madras Our friends have 2 llamas one male alpaca and a goat and ram I feed them pellets and the female goat fruits and veggies I have names for mama g for the female goat wimpy one llama sweetums the other llama ramscoat male goat ragga tooth for the male alpaca I have seen they mate llama and alpaca I speak spanishs and LOVE THEM !!!! Llamas are also used for nursing home visit!! They are my love bugas!!! Joanna Mumby
Great video on explaining the differences. My husband and I were playing with a fisher price toy with the kids and I told them it’s an alpaca and then I thought well what is the difference between them and llamas so I had to look it up to find out! You explained it perfectly and you can definitely see a lot of differences.
This dudes happy made me happy. Thanks my man
Thank you for explaining the differences. They are both beautiful animals.
Alpacas are adorable, I have some to guard my sheep which they do so well as they bond closely with them and protect them from Dogs♥️ Suzanne is a beauty🥰
That Susan is a cutie! I didn't realize how heavy llamas were. How tall is Drago at his head? Who makes your alpaca/ llama jacket?
Draigo is about 74" at the top of he head not counting the ears. And the jacket is made by Altiplano insulation out of Colorado.
This guy could be my bestie! Seriously, it sounded like me, how he cracked up laughing when he brought the alpaca over to the llamas! I am considering both alpacas and llamas, for our farm, for totally different reasons, this is a cute, and entertaining video, thank you for posting!
I loved the video and the lesson regarding Lamas and Alpacas! There is a farm on Martha's Vineyard that has both and knowing more about these beautiful creatures is great! I like this guy that did the video - he comes across as a kind, caring, lama and alpaca owner!! I will check in again!
Is it ever possible to cross breed the two? A llampaca!
Only you would think of that. It has been done many times in NA over the years. I think mostly by just keeping them all together and on hobby farms.
Matt Dyer they are called huarizos.
No
She's like if you're going to keep touching me like that, you're going to have to take me out to dinner first.😂
Great video. What jacket (brand/model) are you wearing?
Suzanne... Fiesty!? Nnnnaaahhhh... What gave you that impression? LOL!! I didn't realize that Llamas were that much bigger than Elpaca's.
yo... Suzanne you crazy:) Fun comment Eric.
The name is Alpaca. The animals that you call llama, their real name is Guanaco. Llamas are different, smaller and of better character. 🙋🏻♀️🇨🇱
Cool video. One time when I was hiking in Winter I saw 3 people walking with llamas in the opposite direction. They were all dark brown.
Hey, the lady says "No touching the merchandise" :-D :-D :-D
The alpaca is very similar to the llama in minecraft, while the real world llma is not the same as in Minecraft
I'm dead loool ! They are so clever so emotional looool !
Damn, this made me realize llamas are HUGE. They look a little smaller than horses.
Love to zearn llamas and alpacas as far as the wildlife
They are beautiful babies!
What's about the personalitys?
So cute ❤️
Do you post this on Instagram?
Great video.
I love how the Lammas is standing so still and not moving at all
I have sheep that size that weigh 250 pounds so I was surprised she’s only 125 pounds.
Very nice video. I got to see the difference. I was also keen to see their personality up close - you did a great job holding her near the camera and interacting. They are sweet animals, so camel-like. I think if you crossed a kangaroo or wallaby with a camel you would end up with an alpaca! Looks like you have a Huacaya breed not the Suri. I wonder if there is a difference in personality between these two. fyi - music was an annoyance and gave me a headache. Best to leave it out of videos.
What did the Lama say to the others before it went on vacation?? Alpaca!
I gotta show this to my friends who think "alpaca" is a fancy word for "lama"
Thanks you for sharing this video. Good information! In our farm we have wooly llamas. I just published my first llama video to KZhead. It is "Llamas in Garden". Pia from Finland
Both too cute
STAHP MAKIng MEH jELLYyYyYY I’m litteraly crying that’s how jelly 🥺🥺🥺
I like alpacas :3 so cute
Beau, how many years will you get out of a llama as a pack animal?
It seems to me like Susan feels like you are humiliating her in front of the llama. Lol
Great video and information, 👍 GOD🙏🙏BLESS YOU. EDUARDO MIAMI FL 🇺🇸
long time no see my friends
I wonder if Susanne is related to Retracto?
Love this. I'd like to raise some some day.
thanks for sharing facts about these incredible animals very informative, quite fun to listen. I feel bad about alpaca could be eaten, they are useful burden animals also very unique of their appearances, behaviours and characters. Suchlike rams and milk cows got slaughtered when they aged, too cruel after used their body products for many years. Same to exploited old workers after retirement got sentenced to death...
Is it easy to keep them as pet?
Si
Not really, its like horses, buying them is the easy part, feeding them proper nutrition and proper vet along with accomodations is the bulk of expense. They will easily live 20 years if taken care of so ypou have to be ready to committ 20 years of your life. Its a creature not a toy or ornament so you have to be ready to care for it for life.
The hell does that weigh less than me and I'm already underweight!? That's insane. I could literally walk off with one.
Alpama
I never knew llamas grew that big it’s almost a horse
Yeah so the alpaca would be a donkey.
@@Yussonoooooo ponyaaayyy
Interested Jerry scott
I like that..

Is there a certain breed that does better with the cold? I live in Minnesota so the winter weather can get cold. Ive been tossing around the idea of starting a heard for the kids and hunting.
U want to hunt with alpacas??
Llama is more chill
😮
Do llamas and alpacas breed...with each other?
Yes they can. It is a viable option most of the time. We do not do this at ranch.
They should make a baby together and call it a llaca! That'll be so cute!
That is funny.
Name it Alpama instead
Llaca Llampaca Alpama Alma
Yeah, but that would also be irresponsible and likely create genetic conditions that would make it hard on the baby. If you are going to breed them you want to make sure their genetics are as sound as possible.
How many acres are needed for a llama?
That is a good question. Usually about 2 llamas to the acre. If you have water rights and can irrigate you can get more.
Me like this vid ad I like llamas in till I new alpacas I new that they we’re similar
can you help me . I want to import it to Morocco so do you know how and how much it costs?
Hoy no .
That it would not so good they live in a cold climate
emerson I know this, thank you. I live in Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa. I wish I could find someone to help me export it to me
@@Ali__muslim why do you want to import them them . Do you have a business related to textile or weaving ?
emerson Because I love her very much. I only want two male and female that’s why I love it
What when spits
the llama looks grumpy 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Siapa yang kalah
How can you tell how old llamas are?
One of the best methods is to have their teeth checked
@@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971 Would be great if you can do a video showing what hard work and dedication it takes to have a herd. I see a lot of people on here saying "I want one" but they dont see the vet bills, food expenses, farm cleaning up work, teeth trimming, hoof care, property maintenance etc. Plus they can easily live 20 years if you care for them right so you have to committ yourself to them for life and be responsible enough to care for another creature. Its not all fun and roses. But if you are willing to put in the work and expense the animals sure are worth it. The issue is many people get them thinking its like a dog then once the expense and care time becomes too much they abandon the animal (just look at all the dogs people abandon at kill shelters because they dont want to care for them anymore. If you think a dog is hard to care for then alpacas and Llamas are definitely not for you, you would be in for a real shock. Would be great if you made a video talking about this to give people a realistic view of what its like actually caring for them.
Is your Llama spit to you often?
They dont spit on people, that is a huge misconception. Only way they will is if you are between 2 of them that have a dispute. They generally will only spit at each other and kick each other to establish dominance and during mating season. If you have a well behaved herd then its minimal and usually the spitting may only be over food or small issue but they tend to get along well after they sort out the heirarchy.
Interestingly, camels (family Camelidae) are constituted by six extant species within four genera, all four extant camel genera a based solely on morphology, the six extant species of camel are the Vicuna (Vicugna vicugna), the Alpaca (Vicugna pacos), the Guanaco (Lama guanicoe), the Llama (Lama glama), the Dromedary (Camelus dromedarius), and the Bactrian Camel (Oreocamelus bactrianus), interestingly, all six extant camel species belong to the subfamily Camelinae, which is further divided into two tribes, which are Lamini (Modern Humpless Camels) with the genera Vicugna (Vicuna and Alpaca) and Lama (Guanaco and Llama) and Camelini (Humped Camels) with the genera Camelus (Modern One-Humped Camels) and Oreocamelus (Two-Humped Camels), all four of these extant camel genera have many major differences, for within the Lamini tribe, the differences between the genera Vicugna and Lama are that Vicugna species have short snouts whereas Lama species have longer snouts, while for within the Camelini tribe, the differences between the genera Camelus and Oreocamelus are that Camelus species have only one hump whereas Oreocamelus species have two humps.
A atitude do lama é tão altiva xD A alpaca comporta-se mais como uma ovelha medrosa (ups, pleonasmo)
I love ❤️ Llama more than Alpaca but Alpaca are still so cute 😄😗💖
llama!
hehe
Que vive Chile
I was thinking ...If we could ride a Lhama like a horse...Or not.
No you cant ride them you can mess their spine up if you do. They are made to have weight on their sides not directly on their spine. This is why they have special packs made for Llama and Alpaca so it can distribute the weight evenly across their sides and not have the weight on their spines.
@@jensz9360, Thanks, your explanation was spot on.
I througt they were one and the same
I thought you was gonna fight them....to bad
Llamas are my favorite animal
Same there soo cute
waoooo..LLAMAS gringas....seguro que hablan inglés. y varios idiomas...!!.....😇...
Alpacas are that light?
I WISH I HAVE ALPACAS LLAMAS AND CAMELS.
I want get some alpacca to be my lovely pets
you have to have three and they have to be all girls unless you wanna have behavior issues or have two pastures. you also have to have them shorn.
Well its not like a dog and you would have to have a decent sized property, good veterinarean (preferably one who is familiar with alpacas and llamas) and you will need a lot of food. These arent animals for beginners. I suggest if you are interested in getting them that you work on a Llama or alpaca farm for 2 months every day so you can see the responsibility and hard work that goes into caring for them.
I've noticed that alpacas are more skittish than llamas. I'd assume because their stature is smaller and they'd be easier to take down by a predator. Born with hypervigilance.
Bro I weight 125 pounds
Llama compared too a alpaca is actually pretty different..
Llama is pronounced "yama", the LL = y sound en espanol.
Español ESPAÑOL The ñ and Ñ are enlisted on the ASCII CODE At least, we, Spanish speakers have the ñ on our KB's.
En el Peru nunca le amarran el hocico . Es cruel .
Hace muchos años viví en Perú por 1 1/2 años. Me encanta, una tierra y una gente tan hermosas.
yo dude weres the other loot lama in loot lake *other teammate* uhh he moved somewhere else
Suzanne the Alpaca lama?!!!!!! OMG. If I were still with my ex Suzanne I would tease the heck out of her with this!
Son oriundo de peruvian
We can add a third specie my boyfriend looks like a lot with alpaca, I will add a photo of his shortly
Llamas are better in every way.
Do these animals belong to camels family?
Yes, they are camelids
@@animalcrossing1233 Thank you for your kind reply
lol does eneyone else wan a llama now.
Lapacka your shit down to carry-on and farmer Jack son..
Llamas S P I T
Cos they always spit on me
Your sale ilama & alpaca ? Can your shiping to Indonesia ?
I thought she was going to weight 200+ but I guess it’s all the fur that makes her look puffy fat. 😅
Alpacas look tiny when they are shorn.
Cute animals and great owner! I would prefer the Alpacas over Llamas, because they are more fluffy and cuter 😍
Bruh she spitting☠
Llma do'nt
I had always heard that alpacas tended to be much friendlier than llamas. Obviously, you don't seem to share that opinion.
I think it is a nurture vs nature thing with both animals. For some reason every time I am around alpacas they seem to be more sassy.
@@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971 I think alpacas are like Chihuahuas they are smaller so as a defense mechanism they tend to be more reactive and Llamas are bigger and stringer so they are more confident that they can handle a situation if one arises. Plus they are taller so they dnt really see you as a "threat" or likey to harm them. So Llamas are just like "whatever , just dont piss me off and we'll be fine" and alpacas are more jumpy due to uncertainty.
