Doctor Will Schultz. DVM and Lee Cohen talk about these beautiful animals with Gabrielle Feighner from the Feighner Family Farm

When discussing the topic of Alpacas, we are fortunate to have a local farm that has a herd and can discuss everything about them. Listen Saturday at 9AM as Doctor Will Schultz. DVM (retired) and Lee Cohen talk about these beautiful animals from conception to old age with Gabrielle Feighner from the Feighner Family Farm in Haslett. Gabrielle will explain how she cares for Alpacas during the summer heat, the smokey hot summer days and how she manages the herd to keep them from breeding or acting badly with others (most of the time.) With Doctor Schultz being an expert in dog breeding, it wont surprise any of you when he and Gabrielle went deep into the weeds on the whole concept of proper breeding as Doctor Schultz learned the nuances of Alpacas and it was super interesting. You'll also learn about the value of Alpaca fiber and how the process works with shearing and converting the fiber into products in HUGE demand. Lastly, you will hear funny stories of interaction with the different Alpacas imposing their wills on others, especially during the mating ritual
