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.
Primarily alpacas eat grass. Either by grazing in your pasture or by eating the hay you provide. When purchasing hay avoid timothy and alfalfa. These grasses don't provide the right mix of nutrients for alpacas and the seed heads get stuck in their fleece. What is generally recommended is second cut orchid grass.
