SOCIAL MEDIA & INTERNET
SOCIAL MEDIA & INTERNET
Take whatever you read on Social Media platforms with a boatload of salt. Trusting anecdotal solutions from well-intentioned but misinformed owners is a good way to make problems for your Alpacas and yourself. Just because people do things their way doesn’t make it right!
Since were speaking of social media, these are just a few of the Facebook groups to which we belong—we belong to over a dozen:
• Alpaca Farm Life
• Paca This
• Alpaca Everything
• Arizona Alpaca Education and Llama, GCAA
New and not so new Alpaca owners are invited to read or download in the “Alpaca Farm Life” Facebook Group files section:
• ” Alpaca Care Basics for New Owners” (very brief)
• “IC Institute’s Recommended Best Practices for Llamas & Alpacas”
• ” IC Institute’s Minimum Standards of care for Llamas & Alpacas”
Read our Dispelling Alpaca Myths & Errors page (which is in the planning stage currently). Most of these have appeared in one form or another online.
