If you are wanting to learn more about the care of Alpacas, you should plan to come to one of our monthly herd health days during the year.

Here are some of the things that happen at the Ranch each month: toenail trims monthly proactive Ivormectin injections teeth checks—and floats when appropriate routine oral probiotic feedings body scoring weight checks conjuntiva checks ear checks
You may even see some halter training or an occasional breeding! And we'll show you the advantages we've found in using our Alpaca chute! NOTE: Pre-registration is a must for these events. We are a working ranch, and this is what we do, so young children or pets are not permitted. And, of course, as with any ranch event, weather or other unforseen circumstances can play havoc with our schedule from time to time. But we promise you'll have a unique experience! |
