Choosing the Best Llama Diet
Choosing the best Mazuri® Llama Diet is based on the life stage (e.g. growing, reproducing or maintenance) and lifestyle (e.g. showing or pleasure animal) of your camelid. Each of these diets are designed by a nutritionist and have been tested for palatability.
For more information on any of these diets consult the detailed spec sheets available at or contact your Mazuri representative.

Note: All Mazuri® Llama Diets are designed to be fed with hay or pasture. Hay is not a complete feed and may be lacking in several nutrients including vitamin E(which is destroyed during the normal haying process) and others, like selenium, that may be deficient in the soil. Typical pasture may also be deficient based on soil conditions. It is recommended you analyze both your hay and pasture to ensure you are feeding the appropriate amount of pellets, hay and/or pasture grasses to your animal to meet their nutritional requirements. Additionally, always provide your animals with clean, fresh water.
