Keep the reports coming. AlpacaWatch'
to grow. Listening to the concerns of other alpaca owners we have added
articles on, BVDV and BarberPole Worms.
Please remember that our long-term goal is to be an early warning system
for issues that effect alpaca/llamas. So let us know of other health or
safety issues that you hear about.
Thank you for your support, and team work!
