MLAS Rescue Llamas Update

We are on day 32 of our MLAS llamas.  For those not knowing about this story, I have attached a bunch of links at the bottom of this blog post!
Listed below will be those Llamas that will be available after their quarantine time is up.  Many were emaciated scoring as low as a .5 on a 1 - 10 scale! Some have abscesses and all are eating non stop, getting daily grain, DE and minerals......some we were not able to get hands-on so we are listing Body scores for those we could get some idea of their overall conditions.
We are waiting for a reply from WSU to get a llama knowledgeable vet to help us with their care.   So far, we've not had any reply from them.
Starting with:
1.  "Silvia"(She has very pretty silver colours on her checks & face) female adult
2.  Not named yet.... Would you like to add her to your herd?  (female adult)
 3.  Not named yet (She has long forward growing bottom teeth - female adult)  Healed cheek abscess
 4.  Not named yet Female (Brown markings on her cheeks & face - estimated young adult)  Body score on arrival '1'
 5.  Not named yet Female (estimated as a young adult)
6.  "MILO" male (will be gelded prior to adoption - ADULT)
7.   "Haps" Appaloosa Female - estimated young adult  Body score on arrival '1'
8.  "Kisses" Young adult chocolate coloured female (healing lip abscess)  body score on arrival '1'
9.   No name yet (green collar) female adult (abscess on cheek)  body score '1' or less.
10.   No name - Female white (nic on ear) adult
11.  "Phantom" Gelding.  He needs a place with a 6' fence.  He jumps.   Body score '4'
 12.  No name Yet - black and white adult?  Female - body score' 2'
 13.  "Tipper"  She was a body score of .5 on arrival (emaciated) named for her tipped ears.

  2. I think #4 should be Dottie Marie. :)

    Such good work you do. I can't imagine how grateful they all are to have such plentiful food. And wow, how close they were to not making it with body scores so low. Fast forward a year - the pictures will be phenomenal to see they all plump and cleaned up and healed. Great work!
