RE: [AlpacaTalk] Hijacked question about Alpaca Treats
Hi CJ,
We feed pellets in small quantities, most fruits, raisins, dried cherries, dried apricot bits, carrots, cucumber slices, nuts---not salted, (they seem to like pecans and almonds best), apples, pears, peaches, (all cut bite size) hard winter squash bits, pumpkin bits, melon bits ---with rind (if washed) ----Actually they like most of the things that they could find if they were out in the wild. The fruits and nuts falling from the trees, the best of the available browse, and some of them like things humans have accidentally dropped while out in the fields---like root beer or peppermint candies!
We have one girl here who will reach through the fences to eat along the walkways where there are herbs----especially lavenders and mints.
Each animal has their own list. One of our girls absolutely relishes orange peels especially from the “CaraCara” oranges which are pink inside.
So they have their own favorites, just like the two leggers.

Subject: [AlpacaTalk] Hijacked question about Alpaca Treats
C'mon you guys -- one simple question was asked -- what treats do you feed your alpacas? If you have something other to say than about the current topic could you do it privately? All this bickering is getting really old.
I'm just trying to see what kinds of different foods alpacas like. So far, carrots, figs, weeds, pears and apples......
Warm regards,
