12.01.2022 With the horrific bush fire emergency currently in NSW and potentially other states throughout the upcoming season, please stay safe. Our thoughts go out to all... those affected. See some information below to help you prepare for the upcoming fire season. Stockowners must have in place a plan for protecting livestock. Some considerations include: Know the best places where livestock can be moved to aim to have yards, ploughed paddocks or other relatively safe areas available. The perimeter of the paddock should be either ploughed or graded to prevent the spread of fire into it. This area should be as close to the home as possible so that it can be monitored regularly and should have a dam and sprinkler system. Consider access to these safe sites during a fire event and have an alternate access point to these if one is cut off. It has been demonstrated that lucerne paddocks are effective as a safe haven for livestock during fires. Have equipment readily available for cutting fences to allow trapped livestock out in emergency situations. If warning is given early enough, consideration to transporting stock to a safe place should be considered. Consider what impact this will have on any quality assurance program that you administer on your property. It is important to have fodder reserves at hand or at least know where fodder can be accessed quickly. If all pasture is lost it is important that emergency reserves are available to maintain livestock. Water will be vital for livestock and firefighting. When establishing waterpoints be wary of running poly pipe above ground as it will burn in fires and cut off valuable water supplies. Animals that are injured should be placed in a hospital paddock or yard where they can be inspected regularly and nursed.Points to consider and ensure are: Place stock on the softest, most level ground available, especially if their feet are burnt. Provide ready access to good-quality feed and water. Burnt animals are reluctant to move and usually do not feed for a few days. They should be given high-protein feeds such as good lucerne or meadow hay. Inspect animals often enough to ensure they are able to move to water and drink. Animals which are unable to drink should be euthanased. Try to provide access to good shade. Check all animals regularly for signs of flystrike, both on burnt areas of the body and on the feet, and treat if necessary. Remember to control worms especially after rain. Some animals may benefit from long acting antibiotics to treat secondary infections - seek Veterinary advice. Re-examine and reassess stock daily for at least a week after the fire and then 2-3 times weekly for a further 2-3 weeks. Particular attention should be given to mobility, inappetence and development of respiratory signs.

10.01.2022 What a fantastic weekend. Thankyou so much to Steve and Lezley from Stevley Park Alpacas for taking the time to come over to WA and teach us. The AAAWA shearing workshop was a great success with everyone coming away with a lot of valuable skills learnt. I for one had never shorn but under the guidance of Steve I completed 3 animals (with no cuts) and have come away with the confidence to finish the rest of our herd (about 18 animals). Steve and Lezley are truly an amazing and lovely couple and are a credit to Australian Alpaca Association and its members. Thanks again guys
