Lemhi Valley Llamas
Established in 2021, in the Lemhi Valley near Salmon, Idaho, Lemhi Valley Llamas seeks to bring together the finest genetic lineages in pack llama stock to produce high quality llamas for
sale, rentals and more. We focus on ccara (working) class of llamas and carefully select breeding males and females that promote genetic diversity, minimize inbreeding and produce powerful combinations of genetic lineages of some of the greatest pack llamas in the industry. We hope to have these llamas available in the next 2-4 years.
The following llamas for sale are some of our earlier purchases that we are
now passing on. We love our llamas and have personal attachments to all of them
which makes it hard for us to sell. We hope to find new owners who will love,
care, and work with them. Reach out if you have any questions by calling
208-315-5621.
Stirling (Female Weanling)
ILR# Unregistered.
Dam: Miss Rita #298979
Sire: Unregistered (44" male)
DOB: September 24, 2023
Wither Height: Weanling, Still growing.
Stirling was born here in Salmon, ID at our ranch. She is a spunky and curious female weanling. She's has a unique gray/brown color. She's on the shorter end still but her cuteness is hard to beat. We've been working with her on handling/haltering still. She has a lot of energy.
Rita (Bred for September cria) and Stirling (female cria)
ILR# 298979
DOB: Approx. 2018. 6-7 years old.
Wither Height: 41”
Rita is a well conformed, proven female that came to us essentially wild and already pregnant. She’s had at least two cria and is a great mom. Rita’s female cria, Stirling, was born September 24, 2023. Rita has come a long way with her handling and can now be haltered after being confined to a small area. She follows well and has learned to trust us to where she’ll eat out of our hand. She is one of the few llamas that I’ve seen kick. We are looking for llamas above the 46" mark so she isn't the best fit for our breeding program. She has a couple tooth abscess issues we haven’t been able to get resolved through antibiotic treatments, however they don’t seem to bother her. She was covered in October 2023 by a nice 46”-47” classic male (out of Pino Gris), so we expect her cria to come~September 16th, 2024.
Rita's cria, Stirling, is a gray/brown/white athletic little female. I don’t have much information about her sire other than he was approximately 44” at the withers. She is very cute, playful, and curious. We plan on working with her more in the summer 2024.

Frodo (Male cria)
ILR# Pending
Wither Height: 40" at 7 Months
DOB: Oct 3rd, 2024
Dam: Zaltana #298978. 46.5" Wither height
Sire: Captain Morgan #272989
Frodo was an unplanned cria for us since we bought his mom as an "open" female, but later discovered she was actually pregnant. Frodo is growing nicely and appears to be taking after his dam’s height. He has appaloosa markings and a friendly, curious, and energetic demeanor. He’s already wrestling with 1 year olds. His dam, Zaltana, is a large 46.5”-47" female. Zaltana was screened and we are waiting on the ILR to finalize her registration. The previous owner said the sire is Captain Morgan (#272989) however we plan to confirm sire with DNA after Zaltana’s screening application is finalized by ILR. He will have longer fiber than what we are looking for in our herd. He could make it as a packer or in the show ring. We are currently working with him on lead training.
