Anyone keeping llamas for packing???? | Page 5 | Animals | Forums

oh and a mineral lick, they make one specific for llama's due to the minerals that are in the soils of South America that we do not have here, he says he goes through about 5 bags a year of it. It's just a powder that he puts in a bowl and they get some on their lips and off they go.

As far as water freezing, he has a buried line from his well to the barn with a frost free spigot and line that comes up from the floor. He fills a large water trough once a day with it. For his 16 females he throws down three bales of hay and fills the bucket. The excess hay they use for bedding. He let's it build up over the winter and then in the spring he uses his bucket loader and empties the barn and makes a compost pile out of it and bakes it off. I got some of it from him a couple years ago and it is great compost.

no, everything is still here, the only thing that got messed up was some threads the op got replaced by the second post, I still have the original database so when I find those I fix them. If you posted on the thread in question click on your profile and there should be a button on the bottom right that says threads I posted to, should be able to find it through there if you posted on it.
