Miniature Llamas
Miniature llamas are intelligent,
charming animals that are also very rare! There are now 685 miniature llamas registered in the USA and Canada:
130 foundation minis, 203 immature minis and 352 mature miniature llamas.
Mini-llamas are easy to handle and about the size
of alpacas. If a 500 lb. llama is too large for you, consider owning a 225 to 250 lb. mini-llama.
Mini-llamas are recognized and registered
with the International Llama Registry (ILR).
Miniature llamas and alpacas
make great companions and can browse together in the same pasture. Mini-llamas behave like standard
llamas in every way. Indeed, mini-llamas think they are 10 ft tall and make good guard animals.
A cria born from registered miniature llama parents can be registered with the ILA, just like a standard-sized
llama. When the cria is 3 years old, if it measures 38 inches or less at the withers,
ILR then assigns it the "miniature"
status. Females that at three years of age measure between 38 to 40 inches can be registered as foundation miniature llamas.

Stardust
|
Name: CWML Bolivia Stardust
DOB: 3/11/2002
COLOR: Silver gray and white
ILR#: 240855
Height: 36 3/4"
Sire: Startime Rythum (ILR# 204449)
Dam: Dancing Spirit Lady (ILR# 184069)
Stardust came to my ranch for a breeding to Romeo, and I liked her so much, that I
bought her. This gorgeous silver gray female has an extremely sweet personality and likes being petted.
All gray llamas and alpacas carry the "white spot" gene that can potentially produce
crias with blue eyes.
Because Stardust is a white-front tuxedo gray, she should always be bred to a solid-colored male that has no white
markings to avoid producing blue-eyed white babies.
