Re: [AlpacaTalk] fertilizing pastures
Hi Peter,
We used to feed the WABA pellets, but it was the declining quality that
prompted my mom to have the custom pellet milled. The fiber blowouts
alone were enough! Actually, that was what spurred it, and my nagging,
to get going on the project. We didn't expect the other general health
benefits.
Mom is the sole distributor of these pellets, they're available right
here from our barn in Creswell. Most of the EVAA membership uses them,
as well as many members of WABA and CABA.
Here's the label info:
