On this farm of about 89 acres grassland 32 head of cattle and 380 Texel sheep are kept. The 250 lambing sheep have all the breed characteristics and generally lamb easily. Consequently, Caesarean sections have not been necessary in recent years. In short, our goal is to breed a practical sheep with a good exterior.
We use about 10 stud rams every year, some of which were born on our farm. In the 2000 tupping season the following rams were used, among others:5297-0206
breeder: C. Limmen, Sint Maartensvlotbrug
This son of ram 3958-0665 has now been used for the fourth season and still meets all the requirements. This ram is judged positively in all respects.
