Llamas are like Lays chips you can't just get one. We fell in love with them and well its all down hill from there.
We show and llamas are also pack and do obstacles. Come to the Houston Rodeo and you will see all they do.
I am the poster child for the llamas on the Houston Livestock show and Rodeo

So that is you in the picture?

I think Llamas were a novelty at one time. They're not like yorkies that you can keep in your house, so the demand is limited.
