Welcome to our new Yellow Wood Llamas Website

I have been re-doing our website over the past several weeks. It was long overdue for an overhaul. The new site is using the WordPress blog engine as a content management system. This approach will enable us to add new features to the Yellow Wood Llamas website and will enable Laura and I to do a better job of keeping the content fresh. This change is likely to break links to some of the older pages on our old site. If you find something missing that you would like to see added to the new site, please drop me an email Fred. Also, your comments on the new site are also welcomed.

Winter has Returned

Yesterday was a beautiful day with sunny skies and temperatures over 50 degrees.  I spent most of the day working outside and enjoying the wonderful weather.  After dark the winds picked up and we experienced a rapid change in our weather.  When I got up to make our morning coffee the temperature was hovering around 18 degrees F.  By mid-day it had only warmed to the mid-20’s and is now 21F and dropping.  As we were enjoying our warm oatmeal breakfast Laura remarked that “at least it is not snowing”.  That changed a few hours ago and we now have snow falling with over an inch already on the ground.

Highlander

This young male has developed heavy bone and full wool coverage that sets him apart from his peers. He is a combination of all the best traits of his renown sire and dam. As a yearling, shown in the photo, he took Second Place at the Midwest Challenge Futurity and Fifth Place at the LFA Futurity, and Second Place at the Hot Mama Llama Sweepstakes in 2004. His strong structure and fine fiber, draping off his legs, ears and forehead, offer today’s breeders quality to build on!
