British Texel
At Sheela Sheep, quality is paramount from head to tail. We breed sheep that thrive on their own. Natural worm resistance is a key focus. We actively work to limit worm burden, so chemical control is only necessary in exceptional circumstances. The health and vitality of our sheep are always our top priority.
All our sheep are purebred English Texels, with the ARR/ARR genotype and free from toil. This guarantees the best genetics for strong, healthy animals and excellent meat quality. Our sheep are deliberately bred with the intention of selling to fellow breeders looking for strong, genetically healthy animals. Interested? We'd be happy to tell you more about what we offer.
Growing on your own strength
Our English Texel cattle feed on locally grown grass, herbs, and hay. By choosing local, circular, and natural feed, we keep the food chain short. What you eat comes straight from the farm.
This method produces flavorful and natural meat. The sheep develop at their own pace, without pressure or stress. This is reflected in the quality of the final product.
Natural resilience
A key pillar of our approach is natural worm resistance. We focus on strong genetics, rotational grazing, and soil health. This way, we naturally reduce worm pressure in the pasture. We only resort to medical treatment when absolutely necessary. This keeps our sheep healthy and reduces our reliance on pharmaceuticals.
Raszuivere kwaliteit
We breed exclusively purebred English Texel sheep. They are known for their strong build, excellent meat quality, and excellent mothering qualities. Our sheep are all ARR/ARR certified, meaning they are genetically resistant to Scrapie. Furthermore, they are guaranteed free of maedi-visna, which is essential for healthy and productive animals in the long term.
Sheela Farm is strongly committed to selecting and building a healthy, stable herd. Each stud and breeding animal is carefully selected to maintain and improve the genetic strength and vitality of the line. In this way, we contribute not only to high-quality meat but also to the future of the Texel breed.
Vlees met karakter
The meat from the English Texel lamb is known worldwide as one of the finest of its kind. And that's no coincidence. Texel lambs produce firm and juicy lamb, with fine marbling and a distinctive, full flavor. Their meat is rich in protein, has a good texture, and retains its juiciness when fried or roasted.
