Summary

Description
English: A well-developed Texel lamb Texel sheep originate from the island of Texel, one of the northwestern islands off Holland. In the early 1930s the breed was introduced to France; the first Texel sheep, four rams which were imported for experimental purposes, were brought to the United Kingdom in 1970, and in 1973 sheep farmers from Lanarkshire imported a number of ewes and rams from France. Presently the British Texel Sheep Society is the largest pedigree sheep society in the country; farmers favour the breed for its exceptional carcass qualities. http://www.texel.co.uk/
