MARIKO LLAMAS

Mary Nell, reared in Clinton, Oklahoma, attended college at Southwestern State in Weatherford, Oklahoma, attaining a BS in Education. Jim reared in Chickasha, Oklahoma, also attended Southwestern State attaining a BS in Pharmacy. After marriage in 1963, another year of education, and a brief pharmacy position in Big Springs, Texas, we purchased a pharmacy in Denton to make Texas our home. We began raising llamas in 1985, and operated our pharmacy until its sale in September 1994, allowing retirement to our farm west of Krum... We have been superintendents for the State Fair of Texas for 13 years and the Fort Worth Livestock Llama Show for 6 years. Showing our llamas in area llama competition has been quite successful for us. Offspring that we have sold have done equally well... MARIKO LLAMAS, owned by Mary Nell and Jim Doyle is located in north central Texas near Denton. We have raised llamas on 35 acres of prairie coastal land since 1987.
