Caring for Llamas and Alpacas, A Health
Management Guide by Clare Hoffman, DVM and Ingrid Asmus is considered
the "go to" book for llama maintenance and care. Chapters on buying a
llama, traveling with llamas, restraint, nutrition, herd health, care of
teeth, eyes, wounds, and lumps are covered in detail. Skin disorders,
lameness, hyper- and hypothermia, respiratory and digestive problems are
also explained as well as when to see a vet. If your llama was down,
would you know what to do? Reproduction is covered from preparing the
female for breeding to care of newborns. Care of the aging llama is
covered as well as how to give injections, taking the temperature, and
passing a stomach tube. This book will pay for itself the first time
you use it. Published by the Rocky Mountain Llama & Alpaca
Association, Inc. of Colorado. 178 pages.
