Feed Homestead Alpaca Crumbles at the rate of 1 pound per head per day along with at least 4 pounds of quality hay to mature alpacas. The feeding rate can be adjusted to fit the needs of individual alpaca or to compensate for low quality roughages.
Alpaca Crumbles have grain sources to supply energy as well as vitamins/trace minerals.
Feeding and Management Tips
Alpacas should have continuous access to good quality roughage.
Additional feedstuffs (such as a 16% protein corn, oats and soybean meal mix) may be necessary during lactation and in creep feeding situations.
Changes in the diet should be made gradually over a 1 to 2 week period to help prevent digestive disturbances.
Provide plenty of fresh, clean water at all times.
Provide a feeding station (creep area) for crias (baby alpaca) free from adult competition.
Keep animals in a clean, dry environment. Shelter from adverse weather should be provided.
Never feed any feedstuffs that are moldy, musty or suspect in any way.
