I had the live cam on,and the blue Tex gimmers seemed to be a hell of a trade! Some over £1000.

Damn it. It looks like I’ve missed the latest ‘pretty sheep’ fad, yet again.

As they have much prettier markings, will they be easier lambed, and even better mothers, than the nicely trimmed Texels that happen to be a blue colour???

Clearly a superior version of its relative, the spotted texel

It's a dangerous game, I used to be called progressive by the ex...


But I now think I'm old fashioned traditionalist, I'll stick to this type

they arnt bad sheep actually ,they handle better than blue texels ,quite solid bodies, they handle like they look , not very big have probally handled this one as have judged his a fair bit , BUT, very very small genetic pool ,they are quite rare and general euro faults in most .(you will struggle to find your next correct ram )
