Re: [AlpacaTalk] feeding questions/DE
No, I just throw a handful in their pellets each morning. I wouldn't want
them breathing it in while eating hay. One handful per 8 alpacas, I'd say. I
also pre-mix it in when I pour the pellet bags into the containers and just
feed it already mixed. You reminded me I should start feeding it now. By
the way, I ran fecals on all my alpacas and the guard llama 3 months AFTER I
stopped feeding the D.E. Although we ARE on drylot, hardly anything showed up
and I didn't worm them last summer. I believe it does work for worms also.

While we are on this subject again - how do you feed the DE. I finally
found some and started adding it to the chix feed about a month ago.
Now that I am convinced it is food quality and not going to kill them
I'd like to start adding it to the paca and horse feed.
I think I remember Susan saying she just threw it on the hay as it
clings to everything? lol for some reason I think that is funny :-).
but sounds the easiest!
Thanks! Janice
