- To be fed with free-choice grass hay or pasture. Feed alpacas 0.5% to 1% of their body weight daily.
- These feeding amounts are guidelines and should be adjusted based on environmental temperatures, body condition, level of activity or fleece production, and life stage; consult a nutritionist or veterinarian for guidance for individual animal needs.
- For females in early gestation, breeding males, or senior animals, feed at 0.5% of body weight (see table below).
- For late-gestation females, consider feeding 25% more Mazuri® Alpaca Complete Life.
- For lactating females, consider feeding 25% to 50% more Mazuri® Alpaca Complete Life.
- For weight management, start animals at 0.5% of body weight (lower end of amounts in chart), and, if body weight does not begin to increase in 4 – 6 weeks, increase in increments (25% additional food at a time), up to 1% of body weight.
Feeding Guide*
- Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water.
- Thoroughly wash feed and water bowls on a regular basis. It is always good practice to wash hands thoroughly after feeding and/or handling animals.
- This diet is not for human consumption.
Caution: Follow label directions: Feeding added selenium at levels in excess of 0.3 ppm in total diet is prohibited.
Do not feed to sheep due to high concentrations of supplemental copper.
Storage Conditions
For best results, reseal the bag between uses or store contents of open paper sack in container with sealing lid. Store in a cool (75⁰F/24⁰C or colder), dry (approximately 50% RH) location free from rodents and insects. Do not offer moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as it may result in illness, performance loss or death. Freezing will not harm the diet and may extend freshness. Use within 1 year of bag manufacturing or "Best if Used By" date.
