About Us

Guarding Livestock

University  studies have proven llamas make excellent guard animals that easily bond  with sheep, goats, alpacas, cattle, horses, exotics & fowl.

Brush Clearing

Llamas are browsers just like goats except llamas can reach higher in the trees & don't need something to guard them.

Hobby/AG Exemptions

Hobby/AG Exemptions

You  don't have to be around llamas for long to quickly see their allure. Classified as livestock, most counties allow them to be used as ag  exemptions on property taxes.  Llamas are a much cheaper alternative  than cattle.

How We Got Started

North Texas Llamas....

is a rotational grazing operation near Campbell, TX that is the  home to more than 100 llamas and occasionally a few alpacas. Jimmy  Dickey grew up in North East Texas halfway between Dukes of Hazard  and Deliverance before traveling to Commerce, TX for his formal  education earning a B.S. degree in Agribusiness from East Texas State in  1987.  Being a simple man, it took him more than 15 years to recognize  he wasn't smart enough to be in the cattle business.  It was 2003  when he purchased a few llamas to clear brush & within a few  years the herd had grown to around 25 head before Dickey's wife Pam  asked a question that would change their life forever, "Are you ever  going to sell any llamas?".  Dickey struggled for a response & just  mumbled something about there not really being a market for llamas.   Pam's response was, "so why do we have them?".  Dickey didn't have a  good answer to either of these questions so it became a challenge for  him to sell down the herd a bit. Being technically-challenged, Dickey  stepped out of his comfort zone to develop a simple website and within  weeks northtexasllamas.com had sold all 25 llamas.  So the  Dickeys bought more llamas & then some more.  That was in 2009 &  the Dickeys have now raised/purchased more than 3,100 llamas and alpacas.
