[AlpacaTalk] RE: alfalfa hay
<<< Hey Janice,
Just a note of caution that some livestock feeds are
medicated with antibiotics that are extremely harmful to alpacas. Be sure
not to let your alpacas get into your pellets for the poultry.>>>
Thanks Laurel. I am organic farm basically and never feed medicated
feed. But I do NOT like the alpacas in the chicken feed for another
reason - copper! But I have one pushy lady that so far has broken
thru everything I have done to enable the chickens to get into the pen
where the feed and water are during the day but keep the big guys
out. Now I just close the door to the pen which is inside the pasture
so the chickens, ducks, guineas, have to make do with what they can
forage during the day and do all the pellet eating in the evenings and
early mornings before being let out. Not so bad hehe.
Janice
