Polska - Opis:
- The aim of this article was to present the specificity of alpacas reproductive physiology, different from other farm animals. Camelids are induced ovulators and seasonal breeders. Breeding females in good condition should give cria every year or nearly every year. In alpacas, early embryonic death and early fetal death is a significant and quite common problem, therefore early pregnancy diagnosis should be confirmed by ultrasound examination around 40–50 days and repeated at 80-90 days of pregnancy. Most parturitions take place between spring and autumn. Few reliable indications of pending delivery exist. Due to the anatomy of the fetus (exceptionally long neck and limbs), obstacles to labor are frequent so it is advisable to monitor the perinatal period and delivery with cameras. The breeder should carefully watch the cria in the first hours of life. It is standing usually 30 to 90 minutes after birth, then begins to suckle and releases meconium. Newborn alpacas rely on passive transfer of immunity through early colostrum intake. The quality of colostrum depends on several factors, including the immune status of the dam and udder health. The mammary gland secretes colostrum 24 hours after delivery and the concentration of IgG drops quickly in the secretion, so its early supply is crucial. The survival of cria depends largely on conditions in the first few days after birth.
