Sunshine State Llamas

Sunshine State Llamas raises llamas in Silver Springs, FL, Marion County and central Florida near Ocala.
Its operations follow recommended health protocols for llama care, including annual veterinary wellness exams, regular dental checks, parasite control, and routine hoof trimming.

The animals graze on mixed-grass pastures and receive daily hands-on interaction to foster calm and curious temperaments. Many of the adults have been introduced to light obstacles and basic halter training to support low-stress handling. Visitors often note the herd’s gentle disposition and fine fleece quality recognized by local fiber artists.

The property employs rotational grazing to promote pasture health through all seasons. Owner Lisa Hospodar Dreggors applies sustainable pasturing techniques learned at regional livestock workshops. Each llama benefits from a quiet barn shelter shaded by oak trees and constant access to fresh, clean water, reflecting a focus on comfort and well-being.
