Argentine Llamas

After many years in the llama business we have found that Argentine llamas have everything we strive for in our herd. The addition of the rare argentine genetics to our non argentine llamas has  also resulted in bigger bone structure, additional wool coverage and improved dispositions.  We are very excited about breeding these "Awesome Argentines".


"Argentine Nevada Smith"  is one awesome guy! He is a very flashy young male with silky wool, gorgeous banana ears and fencepost legs. Nevada has alot of growing time left and we except him to be one big and wooly guy. This young man will be one to watch!


"Argentine Lana"  is a  pure argentine juvenile female llama. I am pretty sure she is going to be the woolliest llama on our farm. Can you believe all the face wool she has at just 8 months of age! Another great plus is that her disposition is as wonderful as her beautiful fiber. Her dam, Argentine Ilona, is from the 2001 importation and is the only Baldo offspring in the US that is reproducing.  Lana's sire, Argentine Midas, is the only full Argentine male out of Argentine Oberon.  Lana's dad is also one of the very few appy Argentine males in the USA.  Needless to say as far as bloodlines, this is one special girl.

"Awesome" is a part (1/2) argentine female out of Argentine Omar....described as having fiber like black silk, fence post legs and  a lover boy. This girl was shown on a very limited basis but has did very well in those few times, receiving 2 ALSA Reserve Championships. Awesome is now part of our foundation herd. She just delivered her first cria, a precious part argentine (3/4) female our of Argentine Mecurio, a silver argentine stud.


"Angel" is stretchy and stylish with excellent conformation. Her fiber is silky, soft and silver! Angel's sire is Argentine Mecurio, a silver stud out of the well known Argentine Don Zunca. This young lady has silver in her genetics, from sire and dam and we are hoping she will produce some silver offspring.  This girl is an Angel!


"Justie" is several months old and her awesome argentine traits are starting to emerge....seems like she is getting more wool every day.  This young girl with her stretchy neck and silver tipped ears just gets cuter with time. She gets her silver from her sire, Argentine Mecurio. Justie is 3/4 argentine and  with her silky heavy wool and good conformation, she will be an asset to any llama breeding program. Her genetics include the well known Argentine Don Zunca, Argentine Omar and RAR Chilean Magnet.  Her mom,  Omar's Totally Awesome, is a very striking tall red and black silky dam who received two ALSA Reserve Championships with very limited showing.

"Velvet" is a big and beautiful part argentine young llama. She has an exceptional attitude and is  as sweet as they come. She is so laid back you can halter her in the pasture, pick up her feet, etc. She gets her sweet disposition from her sire, Argentine Norino, along with her big bone and fabulous wool.  Velvet is bred to our tall full Peruvian herdsire, Pamero, for a fall 2008 baby.


"Madena". Although Madenia is not argentine her sire, Rebano Escondido Costas, was imported from the Altiplano and was one of the Taylor's top Rebano males. Madena has very dense fiber which is found in the Rebanos and Argentines. Her sire, on her maternal side, Madena has the Fiduciary as her grandsire who holds all the records for average and total selling price of offspring, sired the highest selling female llama in history (Mirabelle, at $170,000 in 1989), and has the most registered offspring on the ILR database. Needless to say, this is one special girl with some rare genetics from her sire. She is currently bred to our silky part  argentine herdsire, Kobra's Thunderbolt.


 "Dreamy" is a 3/4 argentine stud and spectacular! He has an incredible bloodline which includes Argentine Don Zunca and Kobra's Gwendolyn. This special guy has beautiful silky fiber and magnificent bone. Dreamy definitely has show presence and likes to strut his stuff....he practically shows himself. And boy does he get the attention! We are anxiously looking forward to seeing what this great guy will produce in the future. Dreamy is truly a DREAM and we are ecstatic to have him as one of our herdsires! 


"Kobra's Thunderbolt" is a 1/2 argentine proven stud and possess the  outstanding characteristics of the magnificent Argentine llamas. He has a robust build, heavy bone, an abundance of black silky fiber, wonderful disposition and awesome feet! Thunderbolt carries many of his famous sire's traits, Argentine Kobra as well as GNLC Catman, who stunned the llama world with a $175,000 high bid at the first Celebrity sale in 1989.  Thunder has a wonderful disposition. My 3 year old grandson and him are best friends!  2008 Update: Thunder just received 1st place at the ILE Lincoln ALSA Show!!
