The problem of "ill thrift" or "failure to thrive" in juvenile llamas is widespread and relatively common in the continental United States. Juvenile llama immunodeficiency syndrome (JLIDS) is one of several causes of the problem and is the most common cause of ill thrift in juvenile llamas evaluated at Colorado State University's Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This article will review current knowledge of JLIDS and will briefly discuss other causes of ill thrift in juvenile llamas.
