Hello everyone! I finally fixed my laptop and it's working smoothly again. It was such a tedious task to backup so much of data before fixing it, but I'm grateful it is complete now and even fixed some old problems I had.
The place is called Bazar Kea Farm and it is located in Cameron Highlands, Pahang, Malaysia. This is how it looks from the outside. If we are going through this way, then we have to climb the multiple flights of stairs at the back and it can be quite tiring. There's another entrance at the upper level and that can be reached by going in a free shuttle jeep they offer at the car parking area.
This is how it looks as we enter. These beautiful umbrella decorations installed on top make a colourful background for our pictures. I took many for myself and my family. We need to keep walking and the farm animals area will come around.
We didn't know that there is such an area in this place. We only wanted to check the goods and souvenirs available and buy if we like something. So these cute alpacas and goats came off as a surprise. They were surrounded by many people, everyone trying to get some space so they can feed them.
We need to buy the grass from them and then feed them to the alpacas. I was taken aback by how large they were. I didn't think alpacas can be almost to my height and they were moving around actively. They were walking around to anyone holding grass in their hands and even if they're not walking, they quickly move their long necks towards the hands.
Honestly, I was a little scared that they might spit at me due to being slow as I was hesitant to feed them since they seemed big. A few days before this trip, I figured that alpacas sometimes spit at people if they get angry or frustrated. However these never did anything like that and seemed to be so social while everyone was touching them and talking to them while feeding. A lady was speaking to them as if they were her own pets and she won't move as she fed them for quite long so it was getting more crowded. However others were swift and moved along after feeding them.
There was also another section where there were baby goats. They were so tiny and I felt a little bad for them because their cages seemed to be their full height and more restrictive. I really hope that after this feeding session, all the animals will be taken back to farms where they can feel more comfortable and relax.
There were three of them and they were all quite active. I noticed the black goat was situated at the edge so he got fed less by the people because the visitors feed whichever goat that appears first. So my family and I mostly fed the little black guy. He also seemed to be the youngest. My brother pet him on his head and he got angry and didn't like him touching his head. I'm guessing that his skin could be sensitive due to his little horns emerging and developing.
So we were back to feeding the very social alpacas. Seems to be easy but it was so hard for me to get close to them to feed them. I barely got a picture taken while feeding.
This brown alpaca is the one that the lady could not let go earlier. She talked to him for a good 15 minutes like how she would speak to a child. It was adorable although she shouldn't have taken so much time when we were surrounded by many other people waiting for their turn to feed. The alpacas seemed to be smart animals as they move away to others when they notice our empty hands after feeding. It was a fun memory although I was a little nervous while getting close to the animals.
Thank you
