Coraz Coloured Suri Alpacas

Cora Zyp with cria

I’m Cora Zyp, and have been involved with alpacas since 2000, breeding white and coloured suris on a 150 acre property 20 kilometres south of Bundaberg in Queensland since 2002.

Grey Suri

There are currently 45 animals on the property, comprising 14 pregnant females, several nursing mums, several wethers, several young males and females, 3 certified stud males, and a companion llama wether.

Herd management and property improvement have been consuming passions of mine, as well as Regional Australian Alpaca Association involvement and regular showing in the Queensland Region. My strong interest in animal health and welfare led to a recent invitation to serve on the Australian Alpaca Association’s Animal Health, Husbandry and Welfare Committee, which I enthusiastically accepted!
