Vana (proven bred female)

Vana

Vana

Vana is likely the largest female of our many big girls, hailing from Kay Patterson’s program. She has the long upright neck of the El Fuerte line, and passes that valuable trait to her offspring. Vana has taken Champion in the show ring, and is a proven champion-producer with strong, tall, large babies with super banana ears. She is an excellent milker, and although she is medium wool, her fiber is fine and her babies have good fiber coverage, showing in medium and heavy wool classes. All of her offspring are excellent show and breeding stock. Vana is an excellent foundation female, with the size and mothering abilities that we want in our program. She is the mother of YW Vanadium (owned by Marlene and Carl Gruetter), YW Voyager  and YW Valkyrie, by Smokin Gun, who we are retaining in our program.

We are offering Vana bred to your choice of males. Imagine getting a suri offspring with Vana’s size, substance, and ears! Her fine-fibered babies have all been large and impressive. She will satisfy the showman and breeder of big, strong llamas bred to your choice of our show-winning males!

Summer Fall Winter Spring “Princess”

OAB La-Mar’s Llevi x Ivory Pond’s Jackie

princess_statefair.jpgThis little lady has had a huge impact on our breeding program, and is a prized “grandma” to many babies. Every one of her five cria have been champions in ALSA classes, and recently have also taken top winnings in futurity classes. Princess has her ALSA ROM and ALSA Halter Championship in Produce of Dam, having taken Grand or Reserve POD seven times with babies by three different males. Princess’s pedigree goes back to some old famous lines including Union Jack. Although Princess is average in size, her offspring have been tall and stretchy, and have the body capacity and “spring of rib” that seems to be disappearing from many of today’s fine-fibered llamas. She produces quality fleece, from silky to nearly-suri. Princess has more than earned her place as one of our top foundation females.

Bardo’s Gypsy

Peruvian Bardo x MGF Gypsy Woman

The huge, impressive Gypsy is one of our most recognized females. She has won several OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAALSA Championships, including a 4th place at the first ALSA Grand National in a class of forty incredible, yearling heavy wool females. Gypsy also took a 5th at the Celebrity World Futurity. She has turned out to be one of our top breeding females, supplying her babies with as much as two pounds a day weight gain and very high IgG’s. Her babies have all been correct and have her intelligent disposition. YW Highlander, a jr. herdsire we are keeping in our program, demonstrates the incredible bone and substance that we just love in Gypsy and her crias. She is also the dam to YW Could it Be Magic (Frank and Judy Hoffreiter) and YW Smokin’ Vin Fizz.
