oh how beautiful the llama is...
The gestation period of a lama is approximately 11.5 months in length. Llama females do not go into heat, they are induced ovulators, that is, the male will mate with a female and 24-36 hours later she will ovulate (produce an egg) that is then available to be fertilized.
The males make a sound called "orgling" during the mating process, which sounds like a cross between a gargle and a snort and can last 15 minutes to an hour. Females can be bred as early as 6 months of age, although it is recommended that they not be bred before they are a year old. Males can breed at about 1.5-2.0 years of age.

Female llamas have a pecking order within the herd, with one female being dominant.
