I'd love to learn more about this moon phase breeding. Also, my husband has a proven track record with goats and sheep about getting females. He was constantly getting 80% female. We are now applying his technique to our alpacas and will know next s…
We give them hay all year, but in winter we add a handful of pellets (lucern or other pellets high on fiber). We also mix in some mineral pellets.
Thats all.
You know, we used Fibrevive this summer on a thin girl and boy during our hot months and it was amazing the difference in weight gain!!! It has been said that the Fibrevive helps with heat stress so, thinking it may help with any kind of stress and…
Steph,
Try and find some alfalfa hay. I know that it's a "no-no" for them to have alfalfa.... but not if you give it to them carefully. I used some last winter on the really cold days. it got sprinkled across the top of their normal hay so that the…
Wow!! That's awesome. Was this some kind of long running contest?
Hi everyone! Just curious how you change your feeding protocols as winter comes on. I have heard of people adding oats and stuff to the feed among other things. What do you do? We had a tough winter here last year and some of my pacas came out of it…
We're still a new farm and don't have a AN site, but from a buyers perspective I can tell you we have bought 9 of our alpacas from 4 different farms off of AN in the last year. So in that respect it's working. I am on it nearly every day looking for…
Thanks! I was beyond excited because we actually got to see the birth. My kids were kind of grossed out, but facinated also.
Got another one due on the 15th, but we'll see what she does. She's a maiden, so could be any time now.
Congrats Heidi, I am too awaiting the first of the year. Was just due the 4th so not too far past and this is going to be her first one.
Sure, that'd be great. Congrats on the new one!
Hi Stephanie,
My girl FINALLY had her cria - tonight at 6 pm! Baby is 16.8 # so about average. If you still need measurements, I get them for you.

Thanks so much Heidi!! I would really appreciate it. I am trying to make a cria sling and don't want to make it too big or too small. Our cria won't be here for about a month and I want everything ready before they get here. :)
I have one that was due yesterday, but momma is hanging on, maybe for better weather this weekend. I will gather the data for you.
Stephanie,
Get ahold of Ann at Nyala Farm.... she just had a cria born yesterday or the day before!!!
