Twin Suri Llamas Born at WoodsEdge Wools

Female Twin Suri Llamas!

We are delighted to introduce our twin female suri llamas! Born on Labor Day, 2006, two females were delivered within 15 minutes of each other by Dr. Megan Campbell and Brent Walker, Director of Operations at WoodsEdge Wools Farm. This is the first set of female twins to be born at WoodsEdge in all our years of raising llamas and alpacas! Shortly after the mother went into labor, we knew we had twins as both heads were in the birth canal at once!

The twins weighed 12.5 and 13 lbs respectively, about half the normal size of a llama born to a maiden mother. (Yes, that's correct, these twins were Moonstone's first crias!!) Despite that, IgG's were 1672 and 1078 without plasma or supplementation!

The first born twin suri llama is vicuna colored; we are currently calling her "Suri Fawn." She has a grey face with a white blaze across her forehead, and lighter colored undercarriage as typically seen in vicunas. The second born twin is a grey, white and fawn tri-color suri llama who we are currently calling " Suri Fancy." She also has a white blaze on her forehead.

We will be posting new photos and updates frequently, so please check back often! Suri Fawn and Suri Fancy will make their debut at the Suri Llama Sale at WoodsEdge Wools Farm September 29, 30 and October 1. Learn more.
