Alpaca manure

Someone who owns alpaca's, fed organically, no weedkillers used, has offered bags of alpaca manure to the plot holders.
Has anyone used this, is it good for growing veggies?

Haven't used it myself but my local alpaca breeder says its great for the veg garden. No need to compost it first but best to add to soil about 3 weeks before planting crops. Sweet corn is especially tasty with alpaca manure. Also, the manure is a ball shape so don't let barrow loads spill or you'll chase it for ages. And dogs love to play with and eat the balls.

Take it and use it as per Trillium is what I've heard - and I've heard that it's better than lion poo which is supposed to be very good as is elephant poo.

Thank you for the answers, stupid me should have ran a search first as this topic was already discussed this year.............

i will be snapping it up , will even ask for a discount on a few bags as i've got time to dig it in before lots of things go in so three weeks will be plenty of time

thank you kindly
