[AlpacaTalk] Re: Digest Number 552
Janice,
This can be a good list for that. You just have to ask the questions
and if people have any experience or suggestions, then they will
chime in. If you don't get answers right away, just ask again. You
can also try alpaca_husbandry-
very active right now, but it may be more focused on actually raising
alpacas.
Did you have necropsies done on any of the alpacas that died? If so,
what were the conclusions?
