Re: [AlpacaTalk] CDT shots for late term girls
Hi Wendy;
We personally give them the CDT right after they have their crias. We have talked to some of the vets in OR as well as our local vets who have been in the llamas and alpacas 30+ years, and they don't reccomend it until after birth or a couple weeks before you start breeding for the next cria. According to our vet, CDT after the birth of the cria also allows them to transfer it while nursing but doesn't fully cover the cria. We know of a farm down in OR who we have known for many years. They had given their pregnant girls the CDT and sure enough, they all aborted. We have never had the abortion issues due to the fact that we have never given CDT while they were pregnant but it seems to be prevelant in the responses already posted.
Hopefully your vet can help you...

Subject: [AlpacaTalk] CDT shots for late term girls
I have 3 girls that are due in 4 to 8 weeks. I just got them so I was wondering if I should go ahead had give them their CDT shots or wait until after the births?
Thanks,
Wendy
