Alpaca Bites 2023 Details
Alpaca Bites Part 1: Dental Disease in Camelids
Join us for the first in a series of 3 ‘Alpaca Bites’ webinars to learn about dental disease in alpacas; how to prevent it, how to recognise it and what can be done when it happens.
Alpaca Bites Part 2: Plasma Transfusion
The second of our 3-part 'Alpaca Bites' webinar series, covering plasma transfusion. When needed a plasma transfusion is often life-saving for a cria, but having the elixir of life to hand needs a lot of preparation. In this evening webinar we will be discussing why plasma transfusions are sometimes necessary, how to avoid them, how to prepare for them if you need them (in advance and in the moment) and what you can do if you don’t have plasma to hand.

Alpaca Bites Part 3: Johnes' Disease
The third of our 3-part 'Alpaca Bites' webinar series, covering Johnes' disease. Johne’s disease can cause chronic weight loss in alpacas and can spread between animals, particularly to cria in a breeding herd. In this evening webinar we will be discussing the most accurate testing options for alpacas as well as how to prevent the disease entering your herd and spreading within it if it does arrive.
