The only thing I would have done diffrent was scrubbed area rather then combed it or scrubbed it after combing.I would check the area a couple times a day for several days.If there is no wound you are likely alright. Always,T

Subject: [AlpacaTalk] Help Please

This past Thursday I had a snow white blue eyed male cria born. Everything has been going terrific until this evening when I was giving him his evening pet and rubbing I felt knots in fiber on his stomach, when I investigated it was FLY EGGS!! Immediately checked for wounds or dried blood and checked his navel for infection. Nothing. So I combed out the eggs and spray both mama an cria with on herbal fly spray, retreated the navel with betadine. Is there anything else I should do? What on earth would cause this to happen? I would really appreciate any advice on this. Jim
