Correct alpaca names: Onyx (Onu), Flocon (Floco), and Sapphire (Sapphi) with descriptions, ages, and herd roles. Add Anatolian Shepherd LGD page covering duties, daily care, bloat prevention, and adolescent play stage. Frame LGDs as gentle and approachable working dogs that welcome guest socialization. Add prominent rule against uninvited outside dogs with leash requirement for approved visiting dogs; mirror in house rules. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Animal Chore Schedule
[!important] Roles are delegated by the team No one takes on an animal-care role without first talking to the team lead. See index#animal-care-roles for how this works.
Daily
| Time | Task | Animals |
|---|---|---|
| Morning | Open poultry coop | Chickens, ducks |
| Morning | Quick health scan, count | All |
| Morning | Feed + check-in with guardian-dogs | Guardian dogs |
| 11:00 AM | Cleaning round + water + hay check | alpacas |
| Throughout day | Egg collection | Chickens |
| Throughout day | Refresh water as needed | All |
| Evening | Feed guardian-dogs (2nd or 3rd meal) | Guardian dogs |
| 8:00 PM | Cleaning round + water + hay check | alpacas |
| Dusk | Close poultry coop | Chickens, ducks |
[!tip] Karma yoga approach If you notice it, nurture it. Anyone can feed alpacas, change water, fluff bedding at any time. The 11 AM and 8 PM cleanings are the structured baseline.
Weekly
- Deep clean stables / coop
- Check fences, electric fence (verify status)
- Restock feed, hay, supplies
- Note observations / changes in shared chat
Periodic (per animal)
See:
- alpacas#annual--periodic-care
- horses#periodic-care
- Poultry: ongoing dusting/treatment + seasonal coop deep clean
Coordination
- Share updates in the group chat — who did what, when.
- Flag anything unusual: unusual behavior, missing eggs, predator signs, fence issues.
- If you'll miss a cleaning round, give notice so someone else can cover.
