Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: FEEd- A great Alpaca feed

Oh my god, those are the size of large dog kibbles! There is no
information about this feed at all except for promotional claims. No GA
or ingredients listed.

No thanks anyway, I'm very happy with our custom pellet. It's the
regular small pellet size. And it's a harder pellet so also no dust,
and we have no choke, either.

We do ship as well. It's just very expensive and the buyer is
responsible for all costs involved. For a few bags, last time we
shipped any feed, FedEx was cheapest. We check UPS and USPS as well.
and figure 55 lbs for the weight of the feed and a box. Our zip is
97401 if anyone is interested in seeing what shipping would be from our
location to yours.

Oh, by the way, I receive absolutely no income from these pellets. It
is my mom's deal 100%. I just think they're a superior product to
eveything else out there. And we've tried Dynamite. Haven't tried
Mazuri or Evans. We're just not willing to feed our alpacas corn and
by-products. We had not only the death from a perforated ulcer, but the
fleeces of our entire herd blew out in just one year. A yearling who
won a blue at Alpacapalooza (Level 5 show!) who had 20 microns at 15
months, had 27.8 microns the following year. Another girl who was 20µ
at 1 yr was 30µ the next year. My 16.6µ boy was 20 something the next
year. The only thing we could think was the feed, since everything else
was the same.

We just won't feed a product that has those vague ingredients listed.
Agricultural roughage product? What kind of thing is that? It's
whatever they can get at the lowest price. Our feed is the same every
time. Have you ever noticed that one bag of your other feed will look
and smell completely different from the next? And the animals will eat
it sometimes but not others? That's why! Alpacas do not eat something
if they don't know what it is. Our alpacas get exactly the same pellet
from one run the the next, or the next. Unless we make changes in the
recipe, as we do from time to time to improve it as we learn more and
observe our herd.
