Editorial Reviews

Review

There is a gentle, nurturing attitude inside this book. Just as a llama mama would nurture her young cria, the reader is guided and watched over with an absence of pushy dominance. Continuing with this metaphor, it would be safe to say that the language and structure of this wonderful book speaks to us as a mother camelid would - softly, from a distance, alert to everything, guiding with confidence and yet ready to respond immediately when the situation signals danger. -- Francei Greth-Peto

4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for anyone breeding alpacas, January 5, 2001

By	Cynthia M. Lavan, Chase Tavern Farm Alpacas (Bowdoin, Maine United States) - See all my reviews

As an alpaca breeder for seven years, I still use this book as a reference guide and highly recommend it to folks who might be interested in breeding alpacas. It covers a wide range of topics with great illustrations and facts, from what signs of labor to look for to how to care for the newborn cria and don't forget the dam, after she delivers. Know that everything listed and described might not happen, but is a nice presentation and helpful resource to have besides your vet. If your vet is new to camelids, its a great reference source for them as well.
