A pocket hopper! Not as cute as a pronghorn but still an interesting challenge. 8-) Is anyone lugging Rooby about in a sling-pouch or is his pouched hung on a heat source in a humid room? I see you have him nicely lubed.

The article is pretty old, Rooby is covered in a lovely soft fur now :) I think at first they tried a pouch but it wasn't working so they kept her in a large rubbermaid tub with oodles of blankets and warming things. The girl who has her has been quite the busy mom for these last few months! Her only 'break' is when Rooby is in the hospital while she is working, that is when I can sneak in :) Now she is in a hanging pouch with a heat lamp, it is also working very well. I really enjoy watching her hop back into it, she pretty much summersaults in then flips around so her head pokes out.
I will HAVE to remember to take my camera tomorrow. I keep forgetting it at home :( I will try to get shots of all the babies tomorrow
It's been very quiet 'round here. Have you left us for Twitter or Facebook? 8-) Or *quails at the thought* found something more interesting than the internet?
I just haven't been online very much lately, am caught up in a bunch of stuff atm but should be around again soon! I have my own section now, the llamas are all mine :D
