Don Zunca is siring crias soon to be seen at shows and some will be for sale. Don Zunca is utterly amazing. He prances in circles around me each and every single day. I have never had a llama do that before. He does the circle prancing when I bring him his hay and/or grain. Doesn't matter which. Such a wonderful llama that gives me such joy!! This could be your opportunity to have imported Argentine llama genetics in your breeding program. 4) Zunca's Mountain Lilly 5) Sundance 6) Silvara (sold)

Kobra's Phantom Argentine Kobra x Rebano Escondido Ghost DOB 7-30-01 ILR 235568 Tommy has won the most awards of any Argentine or Argentine outcross llama in North America! That's a record to be proud of & we are.
April 2010 Tom after a bath above & below... March 2009 March 2006	ALSA Halter Champion (achieved at 18 months of age) ALSA Recognition of Merit 16 Grand Champions (won 13 Grands consecutively) 3 Reserve Champions 2 Best of Shows Top 10 at Grand Nationals in 2002, 2003, 2004 & 2006 Tommy is exceptionally easy to work with and enjoys traveling to different places. Tommy's cria have taken after him in size, conformation & personality. Crias sired by Tommy are becoming ALSA Halter Champions & Best of Show Champions at early ages. Tommy is quite responsive with me and seems to know what I will be asking him to do before I actually do. Good thing as I have to stand on my tip toes in the pasture to halter him and he waits for me to halter him and off we go!! Tommy & I have a great understanding. If he is in another pen & I want him to be where I am - I whistle and he comes running, literally running over. Great, great male llama which I truly enjoy!! 2006 CAL-ILA Grass Valley, CA Llama Show, Ponderosa Show First Place and Grand Champion 2006 CAL-ILA Grass Valley, CA Llama Show, Redwood Show First Place and Reserve Grand Champion 2006 HOBO Classic, Oregon, Silver Show Fifth Place 2006 HOBO Classic, Oregon, Gold Show Second Place 2006 ALSA Grand National, Lincoln, Nebraska, Top Ten Seventh Place 2004 ALSA Grand National, Lincoln, Nebraska, Top Ten Fifth Place 2004 Grand Mesa Llama Classic Grand Junction, Colorado, Grand Champion 2004 ALSA Rocky Mountain Regional Championship, Reserve Grand Champion 2004 Rogue River Gold, Best of Show, Silver Show 2004 Rogue River Gold, Central Point Oregon, Two First Places and Two Grand Champions 2004 HOBO Classic, Oregon, Silver Show First Place, Grand Champion 2004 HOBO Classic, Oregon, Gold Show First Place, Grand Champion 2004 Kokopelli Llama Classic, Grand Junction Colorado, Grand Champion 2004 Wyoming State Fair, Reserve Grand Champion 2003 ALSA Grand National Show of Champions, Lincoln, Nebraska, Top Ten Eighth Place 2003 Celebrity World Futurity, Third Place, Class 3 Consolation Futurity, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 2003 ALSA Rocky Mountain Regional Championship First Place and Grand Champion 2003 LOCC Fall Classic Llama Show, Colorado Springs, Colorado, First Place and Grand Champion 2002 90TH Wyoming State Fair, Open Class Llama Halter Show First Place and Grand Champion 2002 Ag-Fest Llama Show First Place, Heavy Wool Juvenile 2002 Ag-Fest Llama Show Fourth Place, Heavy Wool Juvenile 2002 Western Idaho Llama Association Jubilee Llama Show, Boise, Idaho, Fifth Place 2002 Western Idaho Llama Association Jubilee Llama Show, Boise, Idaho, Seventh Place About half of Tommy's show placements are listed... picture of young Tommy at a show below Some of the offspring born here at Silver Knoll Llamas 1) Phantom's Nicholas 2) Phantom's Alexandra (sold) 3) Phantom's Mallorca 1) Phantom's Natasha (sold) 2) Phantom's El Noche Primero (sold) 3) Phantom's Viper 1) Phantom's Terabithia 2) Phantom's Zolena 3) Phantom's Anastasia (sold)

Ranek - 2008 Juvenile picture Ranek's cria pictures above	Kobra's Ranek Argentine Kobra x Roaring Ruby DOB 6-03-04 ILR 255729 Ranek is a pleasure to watch in the pasture as he can be found balancing on his hind legs eating leaves off the trees quite a lot. Ranek's fiber is as soft as the finest cashmere sweater - that is the best I can compare it to and as an adult his fiber has not changed. Ranek has settled his first females at Silver Knoll and outside breedings too - looking forward to seeing crias sired by him in 2009. Ranek was back in the show ring in 2009. He is one of the main reasons I started adding Argentines to my ranch. Ranek is extremely solid and a good size male llama.

Kobra's Phoenix Argentine Kobra x Madame Zoya DOB 8-28-05 ILR 263247 ALSA 12684 Phoenix has grown considerably over the summer 2007 and is showing all the attributes of the Argentine llama with an abundance of silky fiber. The black fiber on Phoenix is a true black and looks like velvet when you are close up and after a grooming. Phoenix is one of my favorite male llamas due to his awesome personality. 2009 HOBO Classic Llama Show, Turlock, CA Silver Show Second Place 2009 HOBO Classic Llama Show, Turlock, CA Gold Show Second Place 2008 Top Five, Second Place, Southwestern Regionals, Santa Rosa, CA 2007 HOBO Classic Llama Show Second Place 2007 ALSA March Magic Shamrock Llama Show, Pomona, CA Third Place 2007 ALSA March Magic Emerald Llama Show, Pomona, CA Fourth Place 2006 Llamas & More Association Fallon, Nevada Gold & Silver Fourth Place 2006 Sonoma County Harvest Fair, Santa Rosa, CA Fourth Place 2006 LANA Expo Plymouth, CA Fourth Place 2008 Argentine Rendell Argentine Chiquita x Argentine Zapata DOB 7-27-08 ILR 275614 ALSA 16542 4 weeks old Measured 44-1/4" at the withers as a yearling. He has a calm personality, square frame and lush silky crimped fiber. Argentine Rendell has heavy bone combined with silky wool that is desirable in today's market. When he was born I could only smile and say WOW and Oh My Gosh!! A special thank you to the Stobie's for breeding (at the time) their Argentine Chiquita & Argentine Zapata - the result of that match is no less than stunning. Rendell has a calm, willing spirit. He is curious & is a colorful addition in our growing full Argentine herd. 2010 Argentine Extravaganza, Second Place HW Yearling, OKC 2010 ALSA Hobo Classic Llama Show, Turlock, CA First Place Gold Show, Third Place Silver Show, Yearling HWM 2009 Sonoma County Harvest Fair, Santa Rosa, CA Fifth Place, Yearling HWM
