Sad Alpaca Story

In the early evening, just after a noisy thunder storm, Samantha gave birth to a white male cria. We named him Rumbles. He was wet and shivering, and possibly a couple of weeks premature.

At Tin Dragon Cottages we have a small herd of alpacas that are part of our family. We were heart-broken for this precious little cria that was lost. The saga played out over two days and three nights.
