[QUOTE="Anymulewilldo, post: 7207258, member: 144597"] I’d have said it was all texel blood, just a different type as you say. I agree with types within a breed. But when people talk of Texel tups they usually mean the big rangy gormless headed things. Hence why I was a bit more specific in saying that I prefer the slightly more compact, better shaped, smaller headed versions. Around here there are very few breeding pure texels like that. They prefer the other ones! So I have too go for the beltex influence if I don’t want too travel miles and miles for tups. Btw I’m only a few miles away from Paul Slater so that’s where the majority of my crossbred tups come from. I know some folk don’t rate his tups but they’ve never done me any harm at all. [/QUOTE]
