RE: [AlpacaTalk] Minerals / Copper
Because they are ignorant. (I am included in this generalization) Is this the answer you were waiting to hear?
I appreciate you bringing up the subject, really. But the exclamation points are getting old.
I will do better research regarding copper, and will have labs run on the one girl I am feeding broodmare supplement.
I do know that alpacas require more copper than sheep…….closer to goats but not as much as horses or cattle, so if I feed anything not labeled for alpacas, I will avoid those labeled for cattle and probably horses, too.
Thanks for bringing this up.
To anyone out there with skinny animals, please disregard my advice to feed Calf Manna or Broodmare grains. While it appears to be working for us, I would not want anyone to have negative results due to my ignorance.
