Re: [AlpacaTalk] Mouth / lip
Hi Michele,
Don't worry, I remember, the first time one of our alpaca had this we
were alarmed as well! It's just the result of having been in a fight
and being spitted at. Sounds like your boys are jostling for dominance.
They'll work it our eventually.
Best of luck to you!
