Shining Mountain Llamas

Shining Mountain Llamas raises llamas in Como, CO, in the Rocky Mountains near Denver. Craig Freeman has bred llamas for over a decade, holding active membership in regional llama associations and ensuring all herd members undergo routine health checks and genetic screening for sound conformation.

Each llama lives in fenced pastures with daily turnout, access to shaded shelters and heated barns in winter. Young animals are gently introduced to people and other farm animals to support calm temperaments from an early age. The property’s rolling hills and a mountain stream offer natural foraging and enrichment year-round. Sustainable pasture rotation and composting support land health alongside animal welfare.

The farm places particular emphasis on natural fiber quality, offering a range of fleece colors prized by local weavers and fiber artists. Clients appreciate clear breeding records, personalized farm updates and relaxed visits that reflect Craig Freeman’s patient approach to llama care.
