>>HobbyKnob Farm is located in the mountains of western North Carolina in Weaverville. We maintain a small herd of llamas mostly for our personal enjoyment. We do not have our own herdsire at this time. The ones we are offering for sale are all trained with some show experience.
Our farm has roaming chickens, sheep with lambs in the spring, tractors and mowers and a noisy child so these llamas are exposed to many things.
Also call us because we often have animals for sale who are not listed here. Call and ask for Elizabeth 828-645-5869.
We do not offer any birth guarantees, just that you will get trained and handled llamas.
We invite you to visit any time but please call for an appointment first so we'll be available to spend time with you when you arrive.
Hobbyknob Prince Palouse
DOB 12/9/2005
SIRE: RHF Vanilla Smudge
DAM: RHF Queen Anne
Prince is an ILR registered gelding. He is a bit forward in that he will run up to you or the fence to say hello. He wants to be sure you notice him but then send him off. He has been shown in halter and performance classes and we are introducing him to the pack. Even though he is a light wool llama he has lovely soft fiber enough for spinning. Prince is conformationally correct with straight legs and topline. His sire, RHF Vanilla Smudge is owned by Ted and Elke Spirakis of Wellspring Farm. He is not a beginner's llama or is he suitable for guard. He prefers and needs the company of other llamas. You may see his mother pictured below as she is also for sale.
He is available for:$600.00.
RHF Queen Anne
ILR Registered and blood typed
DOB 10/4/2000
SIRE:Prism TL
DAM: RHF Cassie
Queen Anne is a large, grey, light wool llama. She has a nice disposition, halters easily, stands for toenail trimming. I refer to her as an easy keeper since she maintains her weight with lactation and with poor pasture conditions. She delivered her one cria (see Prince above) while I wasn't looking and was an excellent mother. With her size and bone mass she might even be a good pack llama. With one shearing a year she will have fine spinable grey fiber. She is available for $1000.00
Hobbyknob Cocoa
SIRE:Appalachian Samson
DAM:
Claxton's Velvet Eclipse
Hobbyknob Cocoa is 3-1/2 year old and has grown to be a tall strechy girl.. Her dam has had 2 easy births (I missed them both) and is a great mother. Cocoa is also very curious. She has done well in obstacle and public relations classes. She is very friendly. She has lots of fine fiber for a light wool. Due to her size she might also do well as a pack llama. Her sire is Appalachian Samson owned by Jana Johnson of Angel's Way llamas. Samson is a big, beautiful appalousa so lots of color and size potential with a cria from Cocoa. Her dam is a light wool with straight legs and topline and a gentle personality. She is available for $1000.00
Hobbyknob Moon Shadow
SIRE:Marko Polo
DAM:Claxton's Velvet Eclipse
Hobbyknob Moon Shadow is the 2nd cria of Claxton's Velvet Eclipse and he is a hard one to sell. He has the black/brown color I love and it is beautiful. He is for those who still like light to medium wool llamas. He's been shown in halter classes and performance classes. He is sired by Marko Polo owned by Jeanne and Don Holliston of Crystal River Ranch. He is available for $600.00.
