I teach a professional development class and it looks like you are doing what is in my presentation. It is called "Learn it, Live it, Share it. How to become and expert." I believe that this concept applies to any field that you want to become and expert in. As you gain more knowledge, you teach and share that with others. Thanks for sharing. You are a wealth of knowledge and an expert!!!
@@wildernessridgetrailllamas6971 --- You got the order mixed up a little. First you learn something. With that knowledge you start doing it, or living it. After you have been doing it, you share and teach others. You Learn it, you live it and then you share it. In my class I doing a demonstration of a double fisherman knot using climbing ropes, and show two people how to tie two ropes together. As I do the demonstration I tell one of the participants that they are going to have to teach this knot later on to someone else. Now which one of the two people are going to learn the most from my demonstration? The one that has to go teach this knot to someone else.
I must say Ive watched a few videos now. Some people want to sell to people, Some people want to talk at people, once in a while you find a person that just wants people to get to where they are easier than they got there. Sir you know which one you are, fine job! Ive always hated packing with horses. so much so I started researching camels. then I found yall. most def going to use yall next Elk hunt!
So can llamas pull small carts? do they do ok with temperate weather?. I once remember while working in the Caribbean there was a barge abandoned and adrift with either Llamas or Alpaca's (IDR) I went out with a SAR team the poor damn things had no water or food had been adrift for who knows how long. I took out both water and some grain. And we got them ashore where they immediately disappeared.
beau, have you ever heard of the Bob Dustrude saws? I need to get a saw for backpack hunts, and am trying to find the balance between lightweight and function. If you have heard of that saw, which do you prefer for cutting firewood in the backcountry? If you haven't heard of it, check it out and see what you think. Thanks, great info as always!
Hey good to hear from you again. I have heard of those saws and own one. They are pretty dang nice. For simplicity and durability I prefer the Fanno hand saw. But both are tremendous saws. Here is the link for the 24" Fanno Saw: amzn.to/2Th8mrx
You can use most types of fence. We prefer using no-climb horse fence. You can use wood post or metal, you can use lodge pole fence. Really what ever you feel is safe for your animals and helps keep whatever predators live close by out of your pastures.
There are few ways of telling: 1- The llama bows it's back when you touch it with your hand, take off or put on the saddle 2-There are spots where the wool is matted down more than others, the wool turns white over time, or simply you will see inflammation of the skin. 3-by watching the saddle you can get an idea that this is going to take place: watch for slipping and sliding, tipping and teetering, and for pinching of the spin or jabbing of the ribs. 4-rule of thumb is get to know your llamas and pay close attention to them. They will let you know when something is wrong. 5-Do your best to make sure your saddle is fit correctly and is a proper saddle for packing a llama. Asking around and talking to other llama packers can help you figure out more about saddle fit etc.

I really like that. Live it, learn it, share it. Solid principles. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing! Love your content! 🦙

Very informative beau. Thanks. IAM ready for a trip now.😉
2019 is going to be a wonderful pack season. We start March 20th in Utah. The desert is a magical place in the spring. Lets go??
Great info. Thanks!

I think what amazes me most is that you really don't need a lot of food compared to horses or mules.
I would agree with that 100% and I own horses ha.
15-20 gallons vs 1-3 per day, 15-20 pounds vs 4-8 of dry forage. Within the comparison there is a significant disparity. @@fireguy7004
Hi , my name is Gabriela, can you tell me about what type of fence I can use .
Can I use wood ?
Thank you!!
You can use most types of fence. We prefer using no-climb horse fence. You can use wood post or metal, you can use lodge pole fence. Really what ever you feel is safe for your animals and helps keep whatever predators live close by out of your pastures.
How do you know if saddle is causing hot spots?
There are few ways of telling:
1- The llama bows it's back when you touch it with your hand, take off or put on the saddle
2-There are spots where the wool is matted down more than others, the wool turns white over time, or simply you will see inflammation of the skin.
3-by watching the saddle you can get an idea that this is going to take place: watch for slipping and sliding, tipping and teetering, and for pinching of the spin or jabbing of the ribs.
4-rule of thumb is get to know your llamas and pay close attention to them. They will let you know when something is wrong.
5-Do your best to make sure your saddle is fit correctly and is a proper saddle for packing a llama. Asking around and talking to other llama packers can help you figure out more about saddle fit etc.
