[AlpacaTalk] Copper Boluses

 

Hi,
I am beginning a miniature dairy goat herd and have learned about
copper boluses for parasite control. The theory behind them sounds
excellent and with Barber Pole worms being such a threat, it made me wonder
if alpacas and/or llamas could handle them.

I am interested in hearing from anyone who has actually used copper
boluses on their camelids. I realize it is a risky venture if done
improperly in the wrong amount and copper toxicity is a huge issue, but if
anyone has used them, I would like to hear of their experience.

Thanks, folks!
Laura
