Occasionally I leave the door on their paddocks open while I go to get water or food for my alpacas, and they will leave. Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, right? If one of them gets out, they'll most likely go back to the rest of them because they are herd animals and don't like being left alone. If more than one or two get out, it's much trickier. If possible, get a couple people to help you, and make it so they start running towards the gate, and make them keep going towards it. It's easy for me because I have the barn on one side of the gate, and I can tie a rope to the other, so they have to go into their paddock. Either that, or get a bucket of grain or alfalfa and lure them back in, although I find that that is working less and less now that they know what happens if they start to follow me.
