RE: [AlpacaTalk] fertility issues another situation

 

Thanks Peggy,  I usually am a hands off kind of gal but  wouldn't you now know it.  My three best females have given me nothing but trouble this year with breedings.  These two I just described and another gal that kushed fast.  Spit off's all along and no cria.  Turns out somewhere along the line she lost the cria then developed a uterine infection shown by fluid on her U/S.  Jeezzzeee!   Gotta Love them they really do teach you observation and patience skills.

They US pregnant.  We have another female that is always mounting a female when cushed by a breeding male.  She will not allow any one to mount her or sniff her, she US pregnant.  We also have a couple of young maidens that are mounting each other but have never been bred.  They are not pregnant just hormonal.  So, odds are if they will not allow a breeding, they are pregnant.  Some girls are very hormonal but usually they will not allow a breeding if pregnant.  Most stop this at the 2nd trimester.  T   Not a vet just observation from our herd.   Peggy Daniel and Peggy Emmerich EnchantedMeadows Alpacas & Goats 9357 CTY RD O Wausau WI 54401 715.675.0584 www.enchantedmeadow s.com   To: AlpacaTalk@yahoogro ups.com From: rv@lovethemalpacas. com Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:01:09 -0700 Subject: Re: [AlpacaTalk] fertility issues another situation   Let me thow another fertility question at you.  I have two females.  One older and one maiden.  They both have positive progesterone test  2 wks ago for pregnancy.  The older dam still runs from the male and she usually kushed fast so I think she is pregnant.  The young maiden does not cush really fast but follows the male around like a puppy dog and will rub his neck with hers if he is doing another breeding.   Sunday the older gal was mounted on top of the younger maiden as if breeding humming as loud as she could.    She still runs from the male and the younger gal still follows him around with sad puppy eyes.   What do you guys think?  Pregnant or not?    We will do another PG test and u/s.
