RE: [AlpacaTalk] Beet Pulp

Hi Janice,

With our skinny girls and our thin from nursing mom's to be.we use a
smorgasbord which includes moistened beet pulp, pellets for our area,
oatmeal, flaxseed freshly ground.and alfalfa. We mix the grains
together.including moistened and squeezed beet pulp. The alfalfa is "on the
side" and each girl gets her portion when she is segregated from the rest so
that she can enjoy the "whole thing" in peace without competition. We have
seen real improvement in body score and they seem to enjoy having a
non-competitive opportunity to eat everything to their heart's content.

We have liked the results and the animals like the menu!

Subject: [AlpacaTalk] Beet Pulp

Does anyone here feed beet pulp to their alpacas? I started feeding it
to our much loved elderly horse this year and have been so pleased with
her weight and coat improvement. I started giving it to my dog who has
been suffered with coat and skin problems for a couple of years and
nothing seems to help. His stool almost immediately improved, it's been
a few weeks and I've yet to see any changes in his coat. I've started
giving it to my inside cat who always has a hard tiny stool; but she
won't eat but a tiny tiny bite of it.
I started giving it to my alpacas about a week ago. They love it. Any
thoughts or info anyone?

Also, wanted to let you all know that I just recently read that ducks
will "totally clear your garden of snails and slugs". I am excited to
think they have cleaned up the snails in the alpaca pasture they share.

Warmly, Janice in GA
