Llamas del Sol

Thank you for your interest in Llamas del Sol. We began our llama adventures in February of 2009 when we learned of an abandoned farm in Southern Colorado which had two young llamas in need of a home. We did not know anything about llamas then but decided to see if we could settle them down from their wild state and maybe ready them for a happy adoption with another llama farm. Within a few weeks we were in love with our new llamas and could not imagine life without them. It was not long before Dalai and Daisy were halter trained and going for walks along our Bosque and were an integral part of our family. Now we support Southwest Llama Rescue and coordinate rescues and adoptions for the betterment of llamas and enjoyment of people.
