Brought in the first load of hay for the alpacas today, we should be bringing them home in a few days (May 4). Alpacas can be very picky eaters when it comes to hay. These are mixed bales, mostly Orchard Grass which seems to be the grass of first choice. They like hay from the second cutting, it's softer than the first cutting we're told. We've found a local supplier for hay that looks like it will fill the bill.
