What kind of FENCING do they require?
Fencing needs to be put up with the thought of keeping predators out more than to keep alpacas in. Because alpacas can injure themselves by sticking their necks through holes in box wire fencing, five foot tall 2″ X 4″ no climb fence is recommended. It may be necessary to add hot wire to fences depending on the predators in your area. Barbed wire should always be avoided. Alpacas have big beautiful eyes that are easily damaged on the barbs. Alpacas normally do not challenge fences.
