Here in the
foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, we've been
raising llamas
since 1987 where most of
our
herd of about forty to fifty llamas have been born. Our babies range from light
to heavy wool and from extra large to petite
(bordering on Mini.) |
|
||||||||
|
Our breeding program produces llamas with pretty faces, striking colors, silky fiber and the best conformation possible, but the most important thing to us is temperament. All of our herd sires are sweet natured and almost all of our dams were born on our farm so they trust us with their babies. |
|
We do everything we can to raise llamas who are a pleasure to be around. As soon as our babies hit the ground they are desensitized and taught to trust us. They are halter and lead trained as soon as possible and many are also trained with the Clicker on an obstacle course and to carry a pack. |

| We also enjoy producing working llamas. Many are guarding livestock, alpacas, sheep, goats and cattle. Two of our llamas have worked as llama therapists in a hospital. Twin Creek's Llama Treks purchased three of our boys for their trekking company and Applewood Inn a bed and breakfast gives day treks with four of our boys. And many are winning in the show ring.
