Trimming LLAMA Toenails?- Ep.61 - Llama Life
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- It is just one of those jobs that every llama rancher has to do. It takes some time to trim your llamas’ feet. Mostly training them to let you touch their feet is the time-consuming part.
We recommend spending ample time teaching your llamas to pick up their feet for you. Once they are trained and trust you then trimming their toenails is not so hard. Having a llama restraint chute or a second hand to help you is always best.
In the video we use a trailer to help us get the job done. This is how we first learned it and how many folks without a llama chute can trim toenails.
Taking care of your llamas’ feet is very important to their healthy and livelihood. Often you do not have to trim their feet depending on many factors such as the terrain they live in, their diet and how often they work in the Rocky Mountains. The packers we have are trimmed less often than the females that stay at home in the pastures raising their young. On average we trim our llamas’ toenails 3-4 times per year. Sometimes less and sometimes more.
Having the right toe nail clippers is a big first step to trimming their toe nails. Here is the link to the brand we like best: www.jefferspet...

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.

Outstanding video! Finally a realistic demo that shows it the way most of our llamas react. Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!
Thank you for the comment Curtis. It means a great deal coming from you. Hopefully they are helpful. We have enjoyed making them. Have a great rest of the day.
I just love how happy you are, it's contagious.
I am interested in a video about llama nutrition.
I would also enjoy seeing them work on the trail. Or just out in the field, being llamas.
Certainly a lesson in patience and skill. Great job! He's a good Llama and trusts you. I've seen some critters (Horses, llamas, dogs) really really fight it.
We have been on that same end before Eric. Always we love and appreciate your comments.
Thank you for this helpful video since we haven't trimmed our new alpacas yet. Great to see how calm you were, efficient with the process, and how you used assistance when needed. Learned a lot!
I had the same feeling as Curtis when I saw this video! Haha. Makes me feel better about my llamas! Great tutorial!
Sure thing Zach. That makes sense. We will try and do more like this.
Great video, will subscribe
This is one that I have been waiting for. Thanks Beau! Your videos are very helpful.
Sure thing Jay. Again thank you for watching and supporting the channel. Hopefully it was helpful.
Great video as always Beau. My boys (older studs) are easy on the fronts, and difficult on the backs. Cecil sometimes fights me for about all he's worth on his backs and he's athletic as you know, and I'm always glad I don't have more animals to do! Unfortunately both of mine grow their nails fast and they don't wear down much here at home due to our non-rocky soil.
Can you Please give a link where to buy clippers? We will try do it ourselves. We have one alpaca. Thank you!
Great video. Just did a rescue of a couple of llamas I use to own. Extremely underweight. Hadn't had feet trimmed in 6years. One just laid down and wouldn't let me at her feet. Any suggestions? I did a video on the whole thing any suggestions would be great.
I didn't see the link for the toe nail clipper. Can you send that?
This would be better if we could understand you are saying. The background music overwhelms the audio.
Hi where do you buy the clippers?
Educational indeed. Curious...who made your railroad hat?
Here is the link to the hat: www.cabelas.com/product/Stormy-Kromer-Mens-GORE-TEX-Original-Cap/1385696.uts?slotId=2
The first time I trimmed these drew a little blood
