Our llamas are given a CDT vaccination each spring. Toenails need trimming occasionally and a good parasite prevention/deworming program is essential to good health. Here in Kansas, we consider shearing each spring a healthcare need. Even if you do not plan to use the fiber, shearing is imperative to your llama’s health if you live in a hot, humid climate. We perform these basic healthcare tasks ourselves.
