My alpacas LOVE the DE. My horses like it too. I put it in their food
and give it to them free choice. It takes them about a week or two to
get used to it but they really like to eat it. The only problem is
that because it is so powdery - it also gets them really excited and
they want to roll in it so their knock their feed dishes down while
they are rolling/ eating. Craziness! I also give my alpacas free
choice redmond salt and granulated Kelp (seperately). They love that
too.
