We have been slowly building our classic breeding herd as we have found animals that would fit our strict criteria. Our goal is to produce conformationally sound classic style llamas that can pack, perform and do well in halter. This is not an easy task given the current lack of breeding stock with classic coats and sound bloodlines. We try to keep our animals under 47 inches at the withers because our experience (years of tracking bloodlines and traits in lines) has been that once you get over that size, most llamas get too clunky and broken down.

In the Summer of 2007 on a visit to Bobra Goldsmith's Rocky Mountain Llama farm I was pleased to find a whole herd of classic style llamas. At that time we already had Rocky Mountain Sunshine on lease from Lost Creek Llamas and were happy with her. I immediately noticed a nice classic style female in Bobra's herd who turned out to be Sunshine's dam, Supaya aged 22. The next animal to catch my eye was a beautiful black and white classic, who turned out to be Sunshine's younger sister and Supaya's daughter by Inca. After some begging, Bobra agreed to let Legacy come live here at JNK and the rest is history.

We thank Bobra for her willingness to sell this beautiful girl. She is a really nice female and should cross well with our classic male Anders Tobias. With two outcross classic animals like this, we should have one heck of a pack/athletic animal with no linebreeding!

We always get a good chuckle from llama people that think they have HUGE llamas and don't know how to properly measure their llamas. Legacy is accurately measured at 46.5 inches tall at the withers. Thank you to Gwen Ingram for her help measuring her!

*Legacy is co-owned with Niki's Grandmother J.R. Lathrop.

Legacy is due to have a cria by Anders Tobias September 2009
(Unfortunately Legacy turned up open this year)
