[AlpacaTalk] Stock feed or sweet feed

 

Hey y'll,
First off, the crummy economy cost me my full time job four months ago. So the tight budget has become super tight. My farm is in true danger of being lost. Secondly, I have 2 males and a yearling female that I have added to the farm last summer. They are not registered but do have thick beautiful fiber.
With that in mind, I can not afford the Evans alpaca feed at Tractor Supply anymore. I have been feeding "all Stock" and "sweet feed" mixed. What if any will the ill health effects be ? I really liked the info on offering goat minerals. I am willing to add that to thier diet.
When I adopted them I thought they were going to be fine with grazing on the farm and a small amount of feed. Winter reality is they have been eating lots and lots of good horse quaility hay and I doubled then tripled the feed. I hand built them a barn and fenced in an acre plus lot for them. I have fallen in love with them. I am learning as fast I can about these wonderful animals.
