00:00Albert, put it out in the kitchen, please.
00:04Come.
00:05Come.
00:06Out.
00:07Come on.
00:08Out.
00:09Listen to your daddy.
00:10Let's go.
00:11Come on.
00:12Good boy.
00:13Good boy.
00:14Good boy.
00:15You want an apple?
00:16You didn't do anything wrong.
00:17You're just too big for the kitchen.
00:19OK?
00:20You don't belong there.
00:30I think we had an immediate connection and a bond.
00:33I bottle fed him 10 times a day.
00:37OK, Albert, I'm going to get you a bottle.
00:50I'll be right back, OK?
00:52I'll be right back.
00:53I had him in a little pen, but when he was not supervised.
00:56I'll be right back.
00:59And then he would just start screaming for me.
01:05Like a baby was screaming for their mom.
01:12Look at his tail.
01:15He's falling asleep.
01:18He's a camel.
01:21He's a camel.
01:24He's attached to me at the hip.
01:25He just loves to follow me, running back and forth with me
01:28in the tractor.
01:33He would just come over to my house,
01:38and he would just lay down right next to my bed.
01:44First time the goats saw Albert, they were petrified.
01:48Albert wanted to interact with them.
01:50He wanted to smell them.
01:51He wanted to see what they were doing.
01:54But over time, they got to know each other,
01:57and they got to trust each other to the point
01:59where he could view himself as a goat.
02:14They're good climbers, so he's not able to climb with them.
02:18So he'll get on his knees, and he'll
02:21slowly climb the little hill.
02:25Good boy.
02:27Whenever it rains, I provide them shelter and cover.
02:31And Albert can navigate basically a room full of goats
02:35without stepping on any of them, without waking them up,
02:38find a spot for himself, and just lay down.
02:41And he's just one with them.
02:47It's a really fun thing to watch, because the goats are
02:49like my babies.
02:51And Albert is also my baby.
02:52And for all my babies to get along and be able to live
02:55together is really nice.
02:57Woke up in the morning, and what do you know?
03:00We're covered in snow.
03:01And he is, oh my gosh.
03:03You're a snow camel.
03:05He's so excited.
03:07A snow camel.
03:09And he was just jumping around and having fun.
03:12There he goes.
03:13It's inspiring to see how much fun he has.
03:16I'd never had a camel before.
03:18Albert, you're way too big.
03:19You don't belong here.
03:21But now I couldn't imagine life without him.
03:24No, no, no, not today.
03:26No, no.
