Oscar Scat!
This piece of clicker training, whilst looking very ordinary, is actually the most difficult thing I have ever taught. I am asking Oscar to run away from the reward he hopes to receive for running away!

Carrot time...but only for seated llamas!!
Переглядів 4,9 тис.7 років тому
Probably the most useful thing I have ever taught, illustrated on this old video clip: requiring a llama to sit down (Kush). Note that in this sequence of handing out treats, no llama interferes with another. Any llama standing up misses his turn. Oh what cruelty!
Challenge for an alpaca!

Rolling takes quite a bit of energy. This clicker-trained alpaca has been challenged to roll four times in one direction. Can he do it?
Clicker training: llama displays recently learned movements, as well as old ones.
Переглядів 2,5 тис.8 років тому
This is Oscar again. On this video you will see some new movements: in the last month I have managed to teach him to lie on his side. This took me ages because I had previously taught the roll, which begins with side-lying. I had to get him to stop in his tracks! It wasn't easy! Also, new on this video is the reverse turning on the "turn a roundabout" sequence.

Llama Haltering Problems
Переглядів 8 тис.9 років тому
I DO APOLOGISE for the sound quality of this clip. I tried to do a voice-over, but it is muffled. The gist of the film is that I am sharing the haltering problems that I seem to have a monopoly of, with anyone else that might have them. If you subscribe to my videos, you may know that my main interest is hands-off (off lead) training of llamas. It sometimes seems to me that as my hands-off work...
Llama Obedience: Recent Update on Clicker Trained Llama
Переглядів 2,6 тис.9 років тому
This is Oscar back again, practising movements he has learned in the past and showing off a couple of things he has learned recently. This includes the spin in the anticlockwise direction which I thought would be hard to teach but which he picked up in about ten minutes. Please note that we are working in an open field. Oscar is free to wander away any time he pleases...but he never does! But I...
Clicker-trained alpaca learning his colours
Переглядів 10 тис.10 років тому
This is just a fun, clicker exercise really. I taught my alpaca to drop knitted toys of three colours into a box ( incidentally,the dropping part of the exercise was very difficult in fact; it really stretched me) and then I wondered if he could consistently pick out just one of the three colours.
Stand Square
Переглядів 53110 років тому
This is more than a trick; it is a very useful piece of llama training. I freely admit that it is one of the "waiting game" pieces of training that I've done, in that I've waited until the animal is doing exactly what I want, then captured it with a clicker. With repeats, when it reoccurs, over the following days or weeks, the hand and spoken cues are finally added. I do apologize for the wind ...
Alpacas: Cute .. but totally untrainable!
Переглядів 23 тис.10 років тому
The title is, of course, a come on! Banksy has been trained using the clicker (operant conditioning) method. The frequent rewarding seen on the video would not be necessary in "normal" circumstances, (and indeed would be a sign of weak/insecure training) but I was working under stressful conditions, namely with a cameraman present! Banksy is a suri alpaca. I do not know how he compares, in trai...
Alpaca retrieving
Переглядів 1,3 тис.11 років тому
Banksy, my alpaca,(my only alpaca!) is learning to retrieve and here is a short video of what he is doing so far. We have a LONG way to go: that run out should, of course, be much faster and...oops..he does tend to drop the sock a bit on the return run. (My cameraman kindly ignored those moments!) For those into clicker work, and have done some target training, the orange ball takes the place o...

Clicker trained llama: his newest off-lead movements to signals
Переглядів 3,1 тис.11 років тому
This is Toby, showing some of his old, and a couple of his new, off-lead movements to hand and verbal signals. ( The new ones are: "Have a scratch" and "Kneel") Most of this training has been accomplished using a clicker and a few yummy treats! You will note that the clicker is absent in this video as the behaviour is already learned. The treats should also be absent but, well, Toby loves 'em a...

    What are you using for treats?? I find that pellets are way too small and only for the open hand. I want a single treat that I can offer quickly/easily.

    • @zxzllamazxz
      @zxzllamazxz Рік тому

      The very best you can do is to go along to your nearest horse-supply shop and buy a bag of horse treats. There will be a variety to choose from and different sizes and flavours. Failing that, if you don't mind giving your llama sugar occasionally, I find ginger biscuits are something all my lot would kill for. Then there's sweet apple and slices of parsnip. No need to be restricted to tiny pellets. Terry

    Alpacas are not untrainable, it’s just they are more stubborn than llamas and demand praise, unlike llamas. Llamas work for praise.

    I'm about to get llamas. I am very dedicated to being sure they are loved and productive animals. This video gave me a lot of confidence, and was fun to watch. I trained my dog very well, when I had one. This helped me start to understand how they are different.

    • @clairet.waters4060

      And I would like to tell you, like everyone else did, how beautiful your children are. I do similar things with my cats, 'desensitizing' I didn't call it anything though, really supportive to see a professional. I would make them do things they hate, like roll on their belly, hold them upsidedown...and reward them for it. It's so much easier to groom them, and if they ever get hurt, I can do what Ever I have to do to keep them safe, with as little harm to everyone possible. You are such a beautiful llama parent!

    I just subscribed to your UA-cam channel. I notice that you have not made a video for a few years. I do hope you and your amazing llamas are fairing well. I don't have a llama and only have seen them in person a handful of times at petting zoos and the like. I find your videos especially helpful in trying to capture llama forms in 3D needle felting using wool and alpaca fiber. I am far from mastering one yet but not because you don't offer the most wonderful video footage on llamas.
