This is a very simple service which we extend to our clients. We are always willing to help point a new or experienced breeder in the right direction when it comes to basic alpaca nutrition advice. We answer such questions as what hay to buy, whether to feed supplements, and what kind of mineral blocks are best. If you or your vet are puzzled by a particular problem, we might have an idea about a sick animal or certain symptoms you have not seen before. We can show you how to do routine maintenance, such as trimming the nails or giving shots. We can point you to the proper parasite control programs.

In general we are available to answer questions, such as:

Who can I get to shear my animals?
What fertilizer should I use?
How many days should I wait to rebreed my female?
What body temperature should my new cria have?
How do I register my animals?

We have over twenty years of experience raising alpacas and we are always happy to answer our clients' questions to the best of our ability. This advice would not be meant to replace or contradict that of your veterinarian. You should always seek your vet's recommendations and follow their advice.
