Add animal care docs for alpacas, horses, and poultry
New animals/ section with mobile-first emergency page (vet contacts, symptom-to-action table, first aid steps), per-animal daily care for alpacas (Onu/Sapphi/Phil), horses, and chickens/ducks. Capture hay quality rules, alpaca cleaning schedule (11 AM, 8 PM), enterotoxemia schedule, shearer contact, and Sapphi's wound protocol from group discussions. Add natural/preventative care guide reflecting our natural-first philosophy with clear escalation criteria. Document the VetSet first aid kit, chore schedule, and the team-delegated process for taking on animal-care roles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Animals
|
||||
|
||||
We share the land with **3 alpacas**, **2 horses**, **chickens**, and **ducks**. This section covers daily care, watching for issues, and what to do in an emergency.
|
||||
|
||||
> [!danger] Emergency?
|
||||
> Go straight to **[[emergency|Animal Emergency]]** for vet phone numbers and quick symptom-to-action guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Animal Care Roles
|
||||
|
||||
> [!important] All animal-care roles are delegated by the team
|
||||
> **No one takes on an animal role without first consulting the person in charge** — the authority to delegate animal-care tasks rests with team leads. This is how we keep the herd, the flock, and each other safe.
|
||||
|
||||
We live in a **safe area with few predators**, and we embody a **safe zone through our composure** — calm handling, attentive routines, and a settled environment that the animals can trust. That calm is the baseline.
|
||||
|
||||
On top of that, we **prepare to act**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **First-aid training** — animal and human
|
||||
- **High-stress situational training** — knowing how to stay grounded when something unexpected happens
|
||||
- **Clear protocols** — see [[emergency|emergency procedures]] and [[first-aid-kit|the first aid kit]]
|
||||
- **Tight communication** — observations and updates flow through the group, daily
|
||||
|
||||
**If you'd like to take on an animal role:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Talk to the team lead. The role is theirs to delegate.
|
||||
2. Shadow someone first if you're new — that's the normal path.
|
||||
3. Read [[emergency|the emergency page]] and know where the [[first-aid-kit|first aid kit]] is.
|
||||
4. **If you have any doubts about your ability to act in a stressful moment, talk to the team.** That conversation is welcome and expected — being honest about capacity protects everyone, you included.
|
||||
|
||||
This isn't gatekeeping; it's how we make sure every person on duty has what they need to do well by the animals.
|
||||
|
||||
## Our Approach
|
||||
|
||||
We tend toward **natural care first** — herbs, minerals, clean environment, prevention. Pharmaceuticals (antibiotics, vaccines, chemical dewormers) only when absolutely necessary. See [[natural-care|Natural & Preventative Care]].
