A GUIDE TO ALPACA CARE & WELFARE

A full version is available on the British Alpaca Society website www.bas-uk.com

The Alpacas

Alpacas are naturally herd animals and only really feel safe with their own kind; they must not be kept singly.

Generally they are hardy healthy animals and, as with all livestock, they should be checked at least once a day, preferably twice.

By spending time with your animals you will get to know them and it is easier to tell when they are ‘out of sorts’. The earlier problems are detected and help administered, the greater the chance of a speedy recovery.

Alpacas usually give little indication that they are feeling unwell until they are very sick. Early indications may include loss of appetite, spending more time lying around and not keeping up with the herd. Other symptoms may include abnormal breathing and/or posture, lameness, discharge from the eyes or nose, and just generally looking depressed.

If there is ever any doubt pertaining to the health and welfare of your animals, veterinary assistance should always be sought.

Members of the British Camelid Veterinarian Society who are happy to advise on the treatment of alpacas can be found at their website: www.camelidvets.org

You

Never be afraid to ask if you have any problems. You could learn something new each day about alpacas and they would still appear to have an air of mystery about them.

If you experience any problems with newly purchased alpacas your first point of call should be with the person you brought them from.

Don't be afraid to question your vet and provide him with all the information you can. For example, mention the weight of a fully fleeced animal before he approaches with the hypodermic. There are many conflicting views and opinions regarding all aspects of these creatures.

If selling animals, make sure clients know and understand the minimum requirements involved in looking after alpacas.

If possible, visit the new homes and ensure paddocks and field shelters are of an adequate size and that the animals will be safe and looked after.

Most importantly, enjoy your alpacas!

Accommodation

Adequate grazing should be provided for the number of animals kept. The stocking ratio for alpacas is four to five per acre. This should be reduced if

necessary during winter or when grass is low.

Four-foot sheep fencing using stock netting is suitable for alpacas because they rarely jump and barbed wire should be removed. Post and rail and electric tape fencing can also be used, but avoid electric netting because animals can become entangled.

It is advisable, if possible, to rotate grazing, allowing land to recover. Foot rot is not common in alpacas, but if conditions are extremely wet for prolonged periods, there should be an area of drier ground provided.

Alpacas are hardy animals and may be able to live outside all year round, providing they have some form of field shelter which they utilise. An effective shelter, large enough for all the alpacas in the field, is especially important in areas of the country that have more extreme (especially wet) weather.

In larger fields, it is advisable to have a small enclosure or catch pen. By feeding animals here they will become accustomed to the area and it will make catching them easier for routine husbandry, training or veterinary care.

Paddocks must be checked for toxic plants and flowers. Remember that the animals' long neck allows them to reach further than others.

These guidelines are designed to promote health, happiness and a general well being amongst your herd, regardless of size.

Handling

Most handling is easier to carry out in a small area, so a designated area to catch animals is a must!

Always handle animals with the respect they deserve; if you enter a pen in a mad rush with flailing arms and bullying tactics in mind you will never win. Calm, quiet and gentle, but with an authoritative manner is the way to go.

Alpacas can be taught quite successfully to lead on a halter. This can be initiated with brief but frequent sessions. It takes time and patience and an understanding of your animals. A halter-trained animal can often make life easier when the vet comes to call.

Some animals become stressed, nervous or frightened when being handled and respond to this by simply lying down and refusing to move. The more they are handled, the more they will become accustomed to it.

As a rule, alpacas will usually walk away from you. When moving your animals always walk behind them gently, guiding them to where you want them to go.

If no catch pen is available, it is possible to catch an animal in a field with the aid of ropes, poles, or even a few friends or family walking around with outstretched arms.

Breeding

On average, gestation is eleven months and it is recommended that mating be timed to ensure late spring or early summer birthings.

Young females are ready to be put to a stud male only when they have reached 60 per cent of the weight of their mother, or are 14 months old. Following a normal birthing and complete cleansing within 12 hours of birth, a female should be in a fit condition to return to a male from 10-14 days post partum.

On average, gestation is eleven months and it is recommended that mating be timed to ensure late spring or early summer birthings.

Young females are ready to be put to a stud male only when they have reached 60 per cent of the weight of their mother, or are 14 months old. Following a normal birthing and complete cleansing within 12 hours of birth, a female should be in a fit condition to return to a male from 10-14 days post partum.

It is known that some males are able to breed from about nine months of age but most males are not fertile until they are 2-3 years old.

During copulation, the stud male intrudes through the cervix of the female and deposits sperm repeatedly into each uterine horn. This action can cause damage to the uterine lining and disrupt a developing pregnancy. Frequent and indiscriminate mating should be avoided.

The selection of stud males is an important decision. The stud should be chosen to add improvements to the female such as better crimp or lower micron count because the male has a major influence on the quality of the offspring.

Cria should be weaned at around six months of age. It is unwise for the safety of a newly born cria to have expectant mothers birthing in a

field with deep puddles, ponds or streams. Hypothermia in cold or wet weather can be fatal to young and newborn cria. Cria should be vaccinated at four weeks and a booster given four to six weeks later.

From then, they should fall into the regular schedule of the adult herd. Worming of cria is normally commenced at weaning. Late born cria can be given vitamin A, D, and E boosters in the autumn as a precaution against rickets.

Feeding

Different groups of animals will have different nutritional requirements. Always ensure that there is enough grazing. If there is not, and especially in winter

months, the animals should be offered hay or haylage. There must be a constant supply of fresh, clean drinking water. Heavily pregnant and lactating females and other animals also require a supplement

concentrate feed during the winter months. When feeding concentrate, ensure that the food is suitable and offered in the correct quantities to meet your animals’ nutritional requirements.

Feeding of sugar beet in the winter is a good source of energy. Don't use haynets because animals could get their heads caught and hang. Be aware that a number of plants are poisonous to alpacas and steps should be

taken to ensure that they are removed from paddocks.

Transport

Alpacas can be transported in a horsebox, livestock trailer, or any other approved vehicle for the transportation of livestock, providing there is enough room for the animal to stand.

Animals should not be tied to the trailer in any way, because they will usually sit in transit.

Flooring to the trailer should be capable of being disinfected - ideally rubber to provide the animals with some form of grip.

Adult males and females should travel separately and can be divided by a solid partition.

Travelling time must be monitored. Animals may only be in transit for nine hours out of each 24.

Travelling time must be monitored. Animals may only be in transit for nine hours out of each 24.

Stops should be made to provide the animals with clean drinking water and food. This especially applies to females with young cria at foot and allows the cria time to suckle. Animals must also have the opportunity to stand and defecate.

It is advisable in case of accident or emergency to carry with you sufficient head collars and lead ropes for each animal being transported.

Seek veterinary advice when transporting heavily pregnant females. Judgements should take into account travelling time and distance.

Helenia alpacas - prof. & Dr G & H WriGHt

Prof. and dr G & H Wright have agisted their herd of alpacas at Classical MileEnd Alpacas for many years. Their intention was to move the herd to their new farm in South Africa but were unable to establish a new protocol with the authorities there for the import. Sadly they have now decided to disperse the herd.

This group of alpacas features many well known herd sires including CME Tulaco Centurion, probably the most decorated fawn male in the UK; dovecote Jaquinto winner of the Champion Huacaya Herdsire award at the British Alpaca Futurtity in 2011 and Classical MileEnd's latest American herdsires including MFI Point Blank and CCNF Talon.

Treatments

All Helenia’s and Classical MileEnd Alpacas alpacas will be up to date with routine vaccination, worming and liver fluke control medications and will have full husbandry hand over notes.

With Britain set to take centre stage this year, we celebrate all rural Britain has to offer.

PPA EDITORIAL CAMPAIGN OF THE YEAR WINNER 2008 AND 2011

WWW.FARMERSGUARDIAN.COM

By Alistair Driver

FARMING Minister Jim Paice haschallenged British farmers to ‘setthe industry on fire’by leaving thepast behind and embracing theopportunities on offer in today’smarketplace.

Speaking at the Oxford Farm-ing Conference, Mr Paice laid outhis vision for British farmingbased on seeking out new globalmarkets, innovating using allavailable technologies and ulti-mately thriving without the support of direct subsidies.

He also revealed Defra wouldbe hosting an ‘innovation summit’in London in March followed by aseries of ‘practical’regional events.

He dismissed the view of farm-ing ‘as a quaint old industry’ andurged farmers to look to the future.

“We can keep the cosy image of Buttercup in the field produc-ing a few litres a day and the bucolic farmer leaning on his gateWe can sentimentalise farmers assmall players in a market domi-nated by supermarkets at homeand multinational conglomeratesabroad,”he said.

“Or we can set this industry onfire and take the opportunities andface the reality they provide.”

He insisted his comments werenot about advocating ‘big, corpo-rate’ farms over ‘small, family’businesses: “It is about attitude:whether to pine for the old days ofgovernment intervention and pro-tection, or to face the challenges.”

At the heart of his speech wasthe need for the industry to use ‘thebest research, technology andknowledge transfer we can get’ tohelp boost production, while pro-tecting resources and biodiversity.

Driving ambitionMr Paice identified the Agricultureand Horticulture Develop-ment Board (AHDB) as the ‘professional body’ to drive the in-dustry forward in this area and hadasked AHDB chairman John God-frey to address how this could beachieved. He stressed the industryneeded to accept it was competingin a global food marketplace andto seek out export opportunities‘where we are most competitive’.

Shadow Defra Secretary MaryCreagh said food was ‘one of thedefining political issues of this cen-tury’, but criticised the Govern-ment for failing to address all theissues surrounding it.

Highlighting the role farmingand food can play in stimulatingeconomic recovery, she warned ofincreasing food poverty in the UKagainst a backdrop of rising foodprices, exacerbated, she claimed,by commodity speculation.

NFU president Peter Kendallsaid he was heartened by MrPaice’s message.
