[AlpacaTalk] EPE
<<< Okay, we chose to supplement her with a non-alpaca supplement
and this is controversial and has been discussed before on this website. I
am not advising anyone to do what we did- only answering your question.
(ok-disclaimer done)....snip>>>>
So you didn't treat her with Biomycin? You call her your EPE girl; did
you have her tested?
My matriarch has always had a hard time keeping her weight up. Well I
am not sure that is an accurate statement. She carries a large rounded
belly low......she always always always looks preg, and the right side
is always larger than the left so she has fooled me more than once;
these days until I see legs coming out her behind I won't believe she is
preg! But her hips and along the top of spine area are just skin and
bone.
So I am unsure as to whether to suspect EPE or not. I am leaning in
that direction, but just hate to inject anything that I don't absolutely
have to.
She gets plenty to eat - all she will eat.....with no competition as
they are all fed separately - so that is not the problem.
