Re: [AlpacaTalk] Van riding...

 



Hi Carla,

       Congrats on your venture in the alpaca world...

I would think the mini van would be good also in the heat over the trailer, especially in this Texas heat, you can crank up the A/C Keep an eye on them and they wouldn't suffer from the heat unless you have an air-conditioned trailer.

 

We also discussed this week that we might think of getting a mini van just for this purpose when we thought we'd have to take in our newborn cria to the vet earlier this week, but all is well and we didn't have to.  (we also thought if we needed to, we'd use the camper). :c)

 

Good luck & Congrats,

Hello everyone...

Still a lurker on here...but soon an owner! I'm so excited I finally told my husband...its either a pool in the back yard (which I didn't really want) or my alpacas!

Funny  when I said I wanted to rent some land close or find someone with land..he knows of a boy scout friend that raises llamas! lol...

So...my question is this...how far if any can an alpaca ride in my fold down seat van? I don't want to upset them..would a trailer be better? I want to start out with 5-6 as this wonderful friend of my husband has lots of pasture with just a couple of llamas...we have farm land about 25 miles away which my husbands uncles care for. So we will be providing the hay...

I'm so excited can you tell!

Any help on the van or advice on buying would be helpful...I have been looking at alpacanation...

Thanks

Carla Martin
