It is our understanding that Corvo is only one of two FULL ARGENTINE herdsire available for outside breeding west of the Rockies! During 2008 ONLY, a breeding to Corvo is going to be offered at an introductory fee of
$1000 to Full Argentine & $750 to all others-
this makes Corvo an affordable Argentine Choice

In May 2008, we entered him in the Grass Valley Show, CA. Corvo was 11 years old. The Halter Class was double point—two judges. There were eight llamas in the class. Corvo placed a 3rd & a 5th, over much younger llamas. Corvo had not been washed before competition. Corvo placed 4th in his Walking Fiber class. He was the only llama to score a perfect ten in wool density, in all four wool classes. Not bad for a llama that was twice as old as the others in his Halter Class & over five times as old as much as the Walking Fiber Class!
