[Jacob-list] Worming guard llamas

[Meg Steensland]

Besides paste, drench and shots, you can use horse worm pills - I get some from a vet in Greece/Bulgaria that I found on ebay

  There are two kinds fenbendazole and ivermectin
   
  cost in the neighborhood of $50 for 30-40 pills plus shipping.
   
  Remember llamas range 280 +/- to 400 +/- lbs.  Those under 18 mos get 1/2 the adult dose. Or you can dose them a second time the folowing week, if you think they are over-exposed to worms or heavier.
   
  I break the pills in half, bury them in the grain and hand-feed each llama to make sure they get the pill.  All of my llamas are civilized enough to hand-feed - adult males isolated from each other, of course
