Society on line. We hope this site provides quality information to
inspire our visitors to consider Texel sheep for their next project or
established flock.
Originating from the Netherlands
early in the nineteenth century, Texel sheep have proved time and time again
to be at the top if not the winner in many carcass contests throughout the
country. Known for the superior meat quality and naturally lean fat content,
Texel sheep are a superb choice for quality lamb on the dinner table.
Texel rams have become the number one choice for the terminal sires in
Europe, and we are striving for that same goal in the United States of
America. With wonderful dispositions, docile, gentle temperaments, they
are a number one choice for many sheep breeders. Make your next
breeding ram or ewe a Texel!
Thanks for visiting!
Sincerely,
The Texel Sheep Breeders Society
