The very first thing to do when planning to start an alpaca farm is to educate yourself by reading and doing a lot of research. Knowing everything and anything about the alpaca and how to successfully manage and run an alpaca farm is key to what could be a very rewarding and fulfilling business.
Alpacas are cud-chewers, therefore they need pasture and hay. An acre of pasture will support 5-10 animals. They are both browsers and grazers so will also nibble on shrubs and bushes. Because they are economical in what they eat, alpaca food doesn't cost anymore than it would to feed your average farm dog.
