RARE AND EXOTIC ARGENTINES
Even though there are less than 350 full Argentine llamas in North America, they are making an impact on our llama breeding here. It is truly a time in llama history to take a good look at this magnificent animal and see what he can add to your llama breeding program, as this exotic animal is like no other. To be a full Argentine llama, the lineage must have the original llamas on the registration coming from Argentina. Any llama with a percentage of Argentine blood is classified as a Part Argentine whether they are ¼ or 15/16ths.
The phenotypical Argentine traits are a robust build, fine, dense fiber coverage, large leg bone, big feet, triangular head and fiber coverage from the tips of their ears to their toes. They also are known for their intelligent, tractable, and sweet dispositions. They come in a large range of heights and can have lofty, silky or locked fiber. The Argentines strongly pass on their desirable characteristics.
Whether you are interested in starting an Argentine herd of your own, or adding the Argentine ingredient to your existing herd, these magnificent animals will steal your heart. They truly are adding some new excitement to the llama industry.
Gene and Betty Moe welcome you to Llama Dreams. We live in the beautiful high desert country of Central Oregon, some 30 miles NW of Bend. This is a perfect climate to raise llamas, and they look magnificent with the gorgeous backdrop of ten snow-capped mountains visible from our home.
We fell in love with llamas in 2002 after admiring them from afar for many years. We had many years of involvement with horses (professionally), cattle, sheep and goats, but when we got our first llamas we knew we wanted to have them for the rest of our lives. Many of the llama people we have met along the way have become close friends, and we have so enjoyed introducing new people to the wonderful world of llamas.We have had such great times with our llamas, going on hikes, to parades, playdays, library visits, pumpkin patches, and of course showing. The whole llama experience has enriched our lives tremendously.We’d love to share that experience with you and introduce you to our award-winning, magnificent, friendly llamas we are raising.
