One of the alpacas had a cria Friday.
I saw the cria poop yesterday and it was dark brown (normal color), but had the consistency of chocolate pudding.
Today, I found her straining over the poop pile and had a trickle of poo running down her behind. It was like syrup.
She's still active and nursing, etc. What can I do for her and how worried should I be? Also, should I be worried about an infection from fecal matter getting into her vulva?
