Re: [AlpacaTalk] Cria weight gain has slowed way down.
Oh yeah, I forgot that question. :)
I like to feed between 1/8 and 1/4 cup. My mom prefers 1 tablespoon.

I feed flax seed meal mixed in with the lactating females' pellets. Start out at the rate of a couple tablespoons per animal and go up to about a 1/4 cup per animal if need be. It makes their fleece really nice! Just like human kids and all other animals, alpaca crias have growth spurts and weight gain plateaus, so I wouldn't worry too much about it unless he looks sick or starts losing too much weight.SUSAN OLSONAlpaca LocoRiverside, CA
