alpaca is some good shit, I have used it for many many harvests, for like three yrs straight it was my primary nutrient, that and some kelp and minerals and I was good to go.This is from Coot:
If you can get your hands on alpaca manure then that would be the one I would suggest you go with because even organic horse operations have to use various vermicides which is especially true if the horses spend a lot of time in pastures and are dining on the native or planted grasses. However once the horse manure has been aged for 4 – 6 weeks these vermicides are degraded making them safe to use in your worm bins.
You would need to ask the alpaca owners whether their animals are treated with vermicides and if that is the case you’ll need to do the same thing, i.e. letting it set for a few weeks.
I might test this out. Take material either after it 'aged' (or just compost it) and add a little to a corner of the worm bin.. See if they dig in, or stay clear.
P-
After using rabbit manure i'd go with that one though, especially considering people don't usually give rabbits a bunch of meds/anitbiotics... uh... do they?
I don't raise rabbits... so i'm kinda talkin out my ass here...
heh always reminds me of ace ventura...
