Re: [AlpacaTalk] Cria/Mom questions

For meningeal worm protection you should never stop treatment. Ivermectin
every 30 days year 'round. It will not cause birth defects nor abortions.
If you are in M-worm country you should start the cria at 4-6 weeks as well.

Any other parasite treatments should only be made based on fecal exam and
indications that treatment is needed.
