Brijon Texels

When moving into Texel sheep production we paid particular attention to the needs of the commercial buyer. This led us to look at long, medium sized sheep with a good tight short fleece. Most importantly, a good back end, was essential in our initial buying choices. Brijon Texels was established in 1999 with the purchase of a select few females from Mary Dunlop’s Corstaine flock. In 2000 a further purchase of Corstaine females was made when it was realised that the initial purchase had lambed well producing a fantastic first crop of lambs. In 2000 we purchased Goldies Godfather (GG) at Kelso Ram Sale. GG has proven to be the most fruitful purchase and is now part of the breeding of ever female in the current flock. GG breeding has ensured that Brijon Texels have always been in the top average sale prices at Kelso Ram Sales. His first 30 sons averaged £1050 to a top of £7000.
