NEWBORN CRIA 

BIRTH TO 6 MONTHS 


A llamas gestation period is 11 1/2 months. This page shows a newborn wieghing in around 27 pounds at birth to a healthy 125 pounds at 6 months old. Most cria (baby llama) wiegh anywhere from 20 - 40 pounds at birth. 20 being on the lighter side and 40 being huge!! 

25-30 pounds at birth is a nice healthy size.

 This is Mariah at 5-10 minutes old. She was born during a windstorm, thus the name Mariah...
This is Mariah at 1-2 hrs. old. 
Up on her legs but not too steady.
 Ears up but not quite ironed out from the tight quarters she's been in for 11 1/2 months! 
Mom and baby resting after a long hard days work. Content and proud I'm sure.
Now almost 6 mo. old and more spectacular by the day!
