Alpacas

Yes it does. In fact, it shrinks extremely quickly. I recently purchased an alpaca sweater that was a bit too big. I put it in the wash on the cold setting for about ten minutes, and air dried it. Now it fits wonderfully!

It does contain vitamin A which is good for eyesight

Yes. Both chickens and Alpaca will eat and enjoy pumpkins. The chickens will eat the meat and seeds of a pumpkin. The Alpaca will eat skin, meat and seeds. Alpaca's will get most of a shared pumpkin because chickens really do eat like a bird and the Alpaca can take much bigger bites.

It is called an Hembra

An abiotic factor is a non-living thing that is part of the environment. Abiotic factors of an alpaca include the oxygen it takes in and its body temperature.

No. Their foot is unlike any other.

The four man made disasters include war, typhoid, ozone layer depletion and the Black Death. Air, water and land pollution are also a few of the big man made disasters.

Most kinds, yes, but lamas don't have hooves, they have toenails. I prefer small horse hoofnippers to do the job, and general trim the nails every couple of months.

Llamas and Alpacas can both be trained. It just depends on you preference

I'm not sure if alpacas chew their cud or if their stomachs are sufficient to handle the roughage without additional mechanical breakdown. However, they do not have cloven hooves - they actually don't have hooves at all. Instead, they have a foot with tough pads on it (similar to a dog's paw) and two very long and often sharp toenails on each.

The key word in the answer is ETHANOL. Ethanol comes from corn. Therefore agriculture...grow corn, make fuel from the corn, power cars from Ethanol

The alpacas obtain energy by eating foods high in proteins, like grain, grass, and hay. When the food enters their first stomach they start to gain energy.

Yes, like most herbivores alpaca crias can walk on the day they are born and should do so. A failure to stand up within a few hours of birth is a sign of serious medical problems that should be addressed by a veterinarian as soon as possible.

Answer current as of Summer 2012.

As with most everything in the current economy, the price of alpacas has significantly dropped.

You can get a gelding/pet alpaca, or unregistered male alpaca for sometimes free, or ranging between $50-$200 dollars each, depending on your location and the amount of farms in your area.

For a registered breeding quality male, also depending on your area and if the male is a proven breeder or not, you can get one for possibly $500 dollars each up to $10,000 dollars or more depending on fleece quality, conformation, bloodlines, etc.

For a registered breeding female, depending on your area, and if she is a proven breeder or a maiden, you could get them for $500 dollars each up to about $10,000 or more which also will depend on fleece quality, bloodlines and such.

Some farms may still have their alpacas listed for $30,000-100,000 each, but if you look around enough, and do your research you will find farms with lower prices that are targeted for the current economy.

Also, do not be afraid to make an offer, even though the price of an alpaca you are looking at may be high, you could always offer lower and they may take the offer, or at least consider it.

Just know that also, with most things, you get what you pay for. There is a lot of research to be done on alpacas. Coloring, bloodlines, fleece quality, location and so much more can affect the price of an alpaca.

Yes, alpacas do have tails. The tail set is low, which gives an appearance of a rump without a tail, but it has one.
