Nutrition (feeding)
Water
Water is the first nutrient of importance. Good quality water is becoming more difficult to acquire with the increase in human population. Regardless of the challenges of finding a good water source, we must keep in mind that an animal can only survive a brief time without water
Feed
Alpaca nutrition requires occasional supplements, but most thrive on forage and hay. Being modified ruminants, these animals do well on forage and hay and can thrive on any vegetation, because their digestive system is highly efficient. Occasional supplements, vitamins, and minerals should be available. In general, they cost less to feed than other domestic animals of that size.
