hedge hunter 107 Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Haha Llama's are childs play, try getting in field of these feckers. Got a couple of farms that breed these down here, feckin nasty things. Your right mate. I used to have a permission with these on, used to breed them for meat. Bunnys everywhere on there, it was like a bunny bashers dream. One day they took a disliking to my old whippet bitch and kicked the crap put of her , really give her a tunning. Needles to say the dog refused to go anywhere near that farm from that day on, so in the end I just stoped going there altogether Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RubyTex 1,957 Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I second them emu / rhea things. When I used to volunteer we had 3 come in, had to raise the fence and everything. One day a bloke was visiting, not sure why, and was being all macho standing next to the fence winding them up. Well the f***ing biggest one reached through and grabbed his arm. I'd never heard a grown man yelp until then lol lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
beast 1,884 Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 i used to keep a few llamas, made a few quid breeding them, breaking the babies ("crias") and selling them as pets. they are normally just a bit curious of people and will come over for a look, but i never known one to be aggressive............unless you are a strange dog (they will get used to dogs they see every day) old couple near me had half a dozen sheep and a llama in a little paddock. another old couple decided to let their retired greyhound have a run in the paddock and it pulled down a sheep, well while it was ragging it this llama runs over rears up and pounds it so hard with its fore feet that the greyhound goes flying, must have knocked the wind out of it because the llama is trampling, biting, stamping kicking all over the dog before it gets a chance to get off the deck. dog ended up with broken ribs, internal bleeding, vet said it looked like it had been in a RTA. llama had a couple of bites to its legs but nothing serious. thats why they are used as livestock guardians in parts of the states now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AndyH 52 Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 One of my perms has got 2 emus in one of the fields on it, and despite the old dear who own them telling me they are fine, I'm not getting in there with them. I got mobbed & left with a black eye by the pecky twats when I was in Australia, never again! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted July 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 I don't go in the the llamas or the emus. The cows are quite big and some of the sheep looked at me funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
