Re: [AlpacaTalk] Cria/Mom questions
That's what I thought too, but like I said, Dr. Evans was pretty insistent about the '45 day rule'. Slide show and all we had shown to us.
The only problem with this industry is that it seems there are a million ways to do just one thing, and everyone does something different. Being new to the biz, its sort of discouraging because there seems to be no straight answer for anything. I really appreciate the help! Its nice to be able to find a little help in your living room.

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.
