Actually, my llama is easy to dose. She is much better about the stuff than the alpacas. Although I have to say the alpacas I have right now don't give me a problem. But in the past.....

I use a dosing syringe. It makes it much easier. Of course for the larger animals, you need the 50cc one.

I suspect I'll have to find out soon. So far she's had the pour-on. But now with the goats I've been wondering if she's not going to be exposed to more parasites. I let her go almost everywhere, they are often in the same pasture, and one goat or another ends up going all over whether I intentionally let them or not. Especially the s
smallest one. She's usually at my heels unseen and is a whiz at sliding through gates as iclose them behind me. Shoulda named her Shadow.

The good news is that the little bucks are in pretty good shape. One's a bit thinner than ideal but both have nice red eyelids. Which is good since I'd REALLY have a time dosing them. Their moms are looking too light though and definitely need treatment of some sort. Both does (lactating too) are on the thin side and of course I want to breed them in the fall so I need to get then in better shape along with the little girls.
