The dates of the 2023 Flock & Fiber Festival ILR Llama Show are the 14th and 15th of October and we will be in ALBANY, Oregon.

SCHEDULE for 2023 Show - On Saturday we will judge fleece-on fiber classes (shorn fiber must be checked in by Friday afternoon) and run the performance classes (double show). Sunday we will have the double halter show.

We have an assigned number of stalls because we are sharing the Pavilion with sheep and goats. Once we assign all the stalls, that is it, there is no provision for overflow. We love the energy a barn full of kids brings to the show so it would be great to have full youth classes on Saturday 14th!

Our llama show is bringing in three judges for the weekend. Rawna Hamann from Maple Valley, WA will be the fleece judge for fleece-on and shorn fiber classes. We will also have a panel discussion devoted to fleece on Friday afternoon at 4pm.

It is great to welcome back Joy Bishop (Wauseon, OH) and she will be judging performance classes on Saturday and halter classes on Sunday with Margaret Drew (Vacaville, CA).

To enter without penalty, postmark your paper entries or enter online by October 5th.

Here are the links to download the 2023 catalog/show packet. This is the Word version, and if the paging is messed up in that version, please down load the PDF Version.

11 September UPDATE: I am working to have the OFFF show live on Show Manager by later this week (14 Sept maybe?).

Please note that there are Issues with Show Manager include the following:

First, ShowManager is not handling that halter and performance are double shows and fleece is a single show – the ILR per animal fee charged for halter and performance animals will be wrong.

Second, if you are entering an animal’s bagged fleece and also entering them for a fleece-on evaluation, Show Manager will charge you for two separate fleece classes rather than the “fleece package.”

Third, if you are entering youth classes, the age break for intermediate to senior has been wrong online. Please check the age breaks listed in the show packet.

I’m sorry that I am not able to get Show Manager to "roll over and play dead." If you use the Registration Summary Form from the packet, count all your classes carefully and add all the fees, you will have an accurate total. Kirk will have accurate invoices for you when you check in at the show. See you in ALBANY and enjoy the rest of your summer! Hal

  • ILR forms for entering shorn fleeces to be judged. These are required for shorn fleece entries.
  • Information about shorn fleece and coat-on/fleece-on fiber types including the "do's" and "dont's" of fiber preparation for ILR judging.
  • As always, my thanks to Brandy Chastain, the Festival Organizer, and the OFFF Board for their support of our show and the Best of Show Diamond Awards - you all are great to work with and thanks for including the llamas in the Oregon Flock & Fiber Festival !
