What are the qualifications for a llama to be registered as a miniature llama?

0

There are three separate categories in the AMLA standards for a miniature llama. Male and female llamas that measure 38 inches or less at the withers (where the neck and the back connect) at 3 years of age or older and are registered with the International Lama Registry (ILR) may be registered as a mini llama with the AMLA. Females that measure 38.1 to 40 inches at the withers, at 3 years of age or older and are registered with the ILR may be registered as a foundation miniature female with the AMLA. Offspring with one or more AMLA/ILR registered parents may be registered with both the ILR and AMLA at birth as Immature Minis. At 3 years of age, these immature minis have to be measured at the withers to make sure they make the AMLA height requirement. If they still are within the AMLA’s height requirement, they can be permanently registered with the AMLA as a miniature llama.
