Hugs
I will not play Tug-o-War, I'd rather play Hug-o-War.
Where everyone hugs, instead of tugs, And everyone giggles
and rolls on the rug. Where everyone kisses, And everyone
grins; Everyone cuddles, And everyone wins.

Llamas have been a part of our farm since the early 90's,
and they are a huge part of our lives.
We really love them. They are easily managed with wonderful
dispositions. Genetic strenghts play a large part in selecting
animals for our diverse llama herd. Correct conformation,
disposition, color, size, fiber, and bloodlines are all
given careful consideration in our breeding program. We
also really enjoy showing our Llamas at Llama shows, and
go to quite a lot of them. We are members of MLA (Michigan
Llama Association), ILR (International Llama Registry),
Lifetime members of The ILR-SD (International Lama Registry
Show Division), ALSA (Alpaca, Llama Show Association), and
lifetime members of
The LFA (Llama Futurity Association). We believe in supporting
our industry.
Tami has written several
articles for various magazines. You will find her informative
writings to be educational. If you would like to receive
some of her writings or to view our
current ad promotion material send
us an email. She has also served
as a Key note speaker for some of the largest Camelid Conferences
in the Llama Community. She enjoys doing this and would
be available to share her lifetime experiences. Additionally
Tami is a Clinic Instructor and has served in this capacity
for both Show Associations as well as on the level for youth
and 4-H and she would be willing to share in this capacity
for your upcoming Clinics.
Our
Llamas have taken many top honors at the Grand National
and Regional shows.
We halter
break all of our llamas, and those we train for show, we
train for halter classes
and some are trained for the performance events. We generally
are able to offer many
well trained, show winners and pets for sale. Most all of
our breeding llamas are
halter champions and most all have champion lineage.
Some of the bloodlines that travel throughout our select
herd of llamas include: Hard Rock's Bravado; LAMS Nutcracker;
Woodsedge Phast And Phurious; Peruvian El Gris; MGF Argentine
Don Macho; MGF Renaissance; Peruvian Kantu; Peruvian Keno;
Peruvian Maximo; Peruvian Secret Weapon; WLK Heat Wave;
Peruvian Georgio; Riny's King Crimson; Silver Peru; RAR
Richochet; Chilean Leroy Brown; RAR Chilean Magnet; Whist;
Star Adonis; GC's Chock Full O'Nuts; One Standing Ovation;
MRLE Adonis...Almost all of our Production Females are Halter
Champions with many of them being named National Champions
and/or National Champion Producers.
All of our llamas are halter
trained, with many being show winners. Some of them are
performance trained as well, or come from performance winning
bloodlines. We support all fiber types, and for many years
have included various wool types into our breeding herd.
We appreciate the grace and elegance of our classic light
wooled llamas. I will always be attracted to what these
llamas offer in their frames and presence. We enjoy the
fiber of our fine silky llamas. We love the beauty, sheen,
and the lock definition in our suri llamas. We have many
Halter Champions in our llama herd. If you see a certain
llama on one of our pages, please do not hesitate to inquire
about their availability. Most of our offspring are available
for sale. We also offer proven breeding animals,
bred females, show winners, pets, etc., just give us a call
or send us an email
and we will be happy to share our llamas with you and let
you know if we have just what you are looking for!
Feel
free to browse through our llama pages and see if their
beauty and majesty captivate you the way they have captivated
us. One of the things that attracted me to llamas is their
calm gentle spirit that works far better off of trust than
ever off of pain or intimidation. If new to the world of
llamas, we will be happy to share our experience with you.
Once you "hang out" with a Llama you will quickly
see how the outside of a llama with their gentle spirit
is so good for the inside of man, woman and child. Send
us an email if you have any questions,
or would like to know more about the world of llamas.
