Thank you for this video. This actually stopped me from buying one because of how much care they need. I'm not in a position to take care of one this much yet. Just really happy I took the time to find your video. Thank you again.
+Happy Tails You have an amazing videos! I am from Czech republic and I am planing to start an Alpaca herd (a small one up to 10 Alpacas) and your videos really help me to gather information and insight on how it works. Please please do more videos on alpacas and how to take care of them, make friends with them and perhaps some shearing videos... :) I would like to know why male and female alpacas cannot be kept together? does it mean that even if we would have one male and two females, the male would still have to be alone in his own fenced yard?
Hi thank you so much! I will work on making more videos about alpacas. Males and females cannot be kept together because they will breed and the male will harass the female. Unlike other animals, alpacas do not have a heat cycle. They will actually ovulate in the presence of a male. If kept with a male they will ovulate immediately and become pregnant. Once they are pregnant the male will continue to try to breed with them and this can cause a miscarriage.
I have a llama named Banjo and 2 alpacas named puff and fluff. Two pig hunting dogs ran across the property and tried too kill puff. But Banjo killed the smaller and faster one and broke the bigger dogs leg. :)
Hi I loved your video, you gave us a lot of info. I wanted to ask what is the approx cost of maintenance for an alpaca per year, just the animal expenses not including land
I bought alpacas from big alpaca farm. Farm owner mentioned only 5in1 vaccines.Are you caring something for protecting tick and flea and worm for your alpacas?
I really want alpacas for Christmas. Love their little cute look! Can I have 4 alpacas together? 2 girls and 2 boys? Thank you for making this video! It has really helped me a lot❣️
I love your dogs(:)But can you go into farm guardian care or types? I can not seem to find How much does a alpaca cost? THANKS LOVE UR VIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hi I just wanna ask I have a baby female alpaca that is 7 months old and a male that is 13 months old when she is a bit older will I be able to put them together or no?
Wow! You have so many pets. I want to be a vet (when I get older, I'm in 8th grade) because I love animals so much its kind of ridiculous. But I also want to take over my mom's family business that had been running for 115 years. Any advice? You can't really kill 2 birds with one stone here.
+tal miz they can make good therapy animals if they have a lot of training and the personality for it since they need to be able to have lots of people petting them. They are more difficult to have as therapy animals because they need a trailer to be transported and since they are large they might have difficulty going into some hospital rooms. But I have seen a few of them online going into hospitals and nursing homes and of course the patients seem to really like it because it's something different. Do you volunteer with Therapy animals?
Yes they feel very good to have all the hair taken off. When was the last time you had your teeth cut down? If they had teeth like us humans, they wouldn't be getting shaved down.
I have two questions, Am i able to take my bearded dragon to pets mart to get a hide for her? and secondly, ive tried every trick in the book and my bearded dragon rarely takes even one bite of her salad, ive only been able to get her to eat a bit of greens by waiting when she is in her basking spot for her to open her mouth when basking and i just put a leaf in her mouth and she will either eat it or spit it out, second is to trick her into thinking im holding a cricket but its instead a leaf but if she directly sees the leaf she doesnt want it AT ALL, Please help me ;~;
Yes it should be safe for you to take her to petsmart. how old is? some bearded dragons don't get into eating greens till they are 6 months. As long as she is eating lots of bugs with calcium once a week she will be fine
I am gonna be honest... I saw a video where some people had *one* alpaca in *there house* ...and I wanted to see if that was actually possible but from the videos that I have seen that-that is not the case :\ kinda sad that you can't really have a pet alpaca in ur house 😳 oh well
Yeah I've seen those videos, and it's usually a baby or one under 2 years. It's not a good situation and what they dont show is what happens afterwards. Around 3 years or so, those animals will suddenly turn very aggressive because they were raised too closely to humans. :(
+Karen Maxwell Eddy well they didn't exist until humans made them. It's like asking how Chihuahuas were able to hunt to survive, they never existed in the wild.
+Karen Maxwell Eddy and with horses you still need to float teeth, trim hooves, all that would be done in the wild naturally but in captivity they aren't exposed to the elements that would make this happen naturally. Hope that helps explain it.
I just wanna say that spraying alpacas with a hose with a low power is completely okay. I've diligently worked with close to 100 alpacas over the past 3 years and can say that most LOVE sprinklers and kiddy pools. It is correct, however, that you shouldn't spray them to hard, not only for the fleece's protection, but also for the animal because it can cause skin irritation.
hello... ur alpacas are cute... love'em.... can u do a gouldian finch care?? also plss reply wheather i can make bearded dragons and crested geckos to swimm....
Just because an animal can swim, doesn't mean they want to. Why do you want to make them swim? Is it only for your own enjoyment? If so that is not a good reason.

They'll need an acre or more and require the things said in this video. Keep in mind, alpacas aren't necessarily cheap and if you live in a loud area they may get extremely stressed.
We have had our two alpaca girls since last spring. I think the previous owners said that they were around 5-7 years old. One of them had a baby boy last september. My question is why are they so afraid of us? They won't let you pet them! Maybe they weren't treated nice from the previous owners? I see videos of friendly alpacas and wonder why ours won't let you get close to them! So sad!
Thank you for this video. This actually stopped me from buying one because of how much care they need. I'm not in a position to take care of one this much yet. Just really happy I took the time to find your video. Thank you again.
They're the cutest things I've ever seen. Thank you for educating people on these great animals. I learned a lot!
Dying of cuteness!!! They are gorgeous creatures! I need some for sure ☺️ nice video Meghan!
Thank you! 😆
yesss
+Happy Tails can you do a Roborovski Hamster care please?
+Michiko Hirano I don't think she has one
Michiko Hirano Robos are lil gods of cute....
They look so content in any situation I love it
Wow!! These alpacas are so beautiful!!
"shaving" the alpaca looks sooo satisfying xD
That is sooo true.
They look like sheep.
been seeing a lot of these in the uk recently. can't help but get a massive grin on my face when i see them. i just love watching them.
That add with Marc Broussard is everything ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
These are such beautiful creatures! I have never heard of them 'til now. I absolutely love them, Meghan. 😉 Love the video, BTW.

Thank you for such a fast response! No keeping of male and females in one yard! thank you so much!
I have a llama named Banjo and 2 alpacas named puff and fluff. Two pig hunting dogs ran across the property and tried too kill puff. But Banjo killed the smaller and faster one and broke the bigger dogs leg. :)
BigPanda Oxbull that’s karma but also very morbid o.O
I train alpacas and perform with them in shows. I just won first place!

how much land do you have your what 10 alpacas on? How much land do like 5-10 need?
SisTheCountryGirl every 5 alpacas need 1 acre, but if you don't have much grass you should give more land :).
They are so cute!

I really want alpacas one day! At the moment we don't have the room, hopefully one day ❤️. My school has alpacas and I love them!😆
holy shit I need to move to that school
They are adorable! But since they are in the camel family, do they spit like camels? I have heard camels can be cranky.
If you make them mad they will.

Great Video! I learned a lot ! Thanks
question... how did alpaca survive if previously they weren't getting their teeth trimmed by man?
Well man created alpacas so there was no before.
You should do a video about the dog that guards the alpacas

+My Animal World ❤❤
Hey HT, my quation is what do you think of alpacas or LLamas as tharapy animals? is a good thing or an okay thing or is a bad thing?
+tal miz they can make good therapy animals if they have a lot of training and the personality for it since they need to be able to have lots of people petting them. They are more difficult to have as therapy animals because they need a trailer to be transported and since they are large they might have difficulty going into some hospital rooms. But I have seen a few of them online going into hospitals and nursing homes and of course the patients seem to really like it because it's something different. Do you volunteer with Therapy animals?
sorry but no, i do not have or voluteer with Therapy animals of any type. saddly :-/
Do they like to be sheared. Is it comfortable for them? How bout shaving down their teeth. Do they have nerve endings like us? Do they get numbed?
Yes they feel very good to have all the hair taken off. When was the last time you had your teeth cut down? If they had teeth like us humans, they wouldn't be getting shaved down.
I have two questions, Am i able to take my bearded dragon to pets mart to get a hide for her? and secondly, ive tried every trick in the book and my bearded dragon rarely takes even one bite of her salad, ive only been able to get her to eat a bit of greens by waiting when she is in her basking spot for her to open her mouth when basking and i just put a leaf in her mouth and she will either eat it or spit it out, second is to trick her into thinking im holding a cricket but its instead a leaf but if she directly sees the leaf she doesnt want it AT ALL, Please help me ;~;
Yes it should be safe for you to take her to petsmart. how old is? some bearded dragons don't get into eating greens till they are 6 months. As long as she is eating lots of bugs with calcium once a week she will be fine
Happy Tails alright cause i want to get her a hide or hammock for her to sleep in at night, and she is about 9 months old.
I am gonna be honest... I saw a video where some people had *one* alpaca in *there house* ...and I wanted to see if that was actually possible but from the videos that I have seen that-that is not the case :\ kinda sad that you can't really have a pet alpaca in ur house 😳 oh well

@@HappyTailsAnimals yikes.. had a feeling it was too good to be true 😧 oh well..
Can you do care for goats?

+Happy Tails Thank You!
Your channel is so interesting :D
+CuriosityRocks TY! I try! 😁
Where did you get your alpaca
my first alpacas were rescues and other we have bought.
CUTE faces💜
Could you please do a how to train a gaurdian dog video? and shelter for them
HOw did these animals survive without humans sheering them, filing their teeth and clipping their nails? Im just curious.
+Karen Maxwell Eddy well they didn't exist until humans made them. It's like asking how Chihuahuas were able to hunt to survive, they never existed in the wild.
+Karen Maxwell Eddy and with horses you still need to float teeth, trim hooves, all that would be done in the wild naturally but in captivity they aren't exposed to the elements that would make this happen naturally. Hope that helps explain it.
interesting!! How did we make them?
+Karen Maxwell Eddy selective breeding from wild ancestors, cousins of their species. Kind of like with dogs or cattle.
First of all, Humans dont make any Animals only our Creator made them, but I love very much your Videos. So cool!
So if you have to keep intact males separated from the females, do you need three males to be in the same pasture?
I just wanna say that spraying alpacas with a hose with a low power is completely okay. I've diligently worked with close to 100 alpacas over the past 3 years and can say that most LOVE sprinklers and kiddy pools. It is correct, however, that you shouldn't spray them to hard, not only for the fleece's protection, but also for the animal because it can cause skin irritation.
hello... ur alpacas are cute... love'em.... can u do a gouldian finch care?? also plss reply wheather i can make bearded dragons and crested geckos to swimm....
+Saidalavi Pangat what do you mean you want to make them swim?
+Happy Tails teach them to swim... i have seen many reptiles swimming....
Just because an animal can swim, doesn't mean they want to. Why do you want to make them swim? Is it only for your own enjoyment? If so that is not a good reason.
Just because an animal can swim, doesn't mean they want to. Why do you want to make them swim? Is it only for your own enjoyment? If so that is not a good reason.
+Happy Tails ok... i was just asking whether they can really swim or not..
I love alpacas
I LOVE alpacas
THEY SOO FLUFFY OMG 🙂😇😍
I love alpacas pls more rat vids
why do u have like 10 alpacas? are u running an alpaca farm?
Can alpacas live in backyards
They'll need an acre or more and require the things said in this video. Keep in mind, alpacas aren't necessarily cheap and if you live in a loud area they may get extremely stressed.
u make it sound so complicated to have alpacas
I love the way you say "alpaca" 😂👏
+Mini Wolf it's a Spanish word so I don't mispronounce it like most people
So is it not recommended to have a pair of both gender together?
Aweeeee people call me amber the ALPACA or just alpaca at school
We have had our two alpaca girls since last spring. I think the previous owners said that they were around 5-7 years old. One of them had a baby boy last september. My question is why are they so afraid of us? They won't let you pet them! Maybe they weren't treated nice from the previous owners? I see videos of friendly alpacas and wonder why ours won't let you get close to them! So sad!
Could you tell me what mic you’re using? It sounds really good!
7:42 The vet was holding a big chisel. Was if for the alpaca or for bricks?
