- Texals are the poorest offspring that are in high demand
- It originates on the small island of Taxel, off the coast of the Netherlands
What is the peculiarity
Presumably, this is the most expensive sheep ever. Memon of the Texal breed has sold double diamonds to three farmers at the Scottish National Texel Sale in Lanark. Texals are the poorest offspring that are in high demand. It originates on the small island of Texel, off the coast of the Netherlands. Normally its price is in five points, but this time the price is much higher.
Contest among people to buy
“Every time something special comes along and yesterday was the same day when a special tuxel came up,” said Jeff Aken, one of the breeders who has so far paid a large sum to buy this sheep. Everyone wanted to buy it.
The bid for the Scottish National Texal grew
He had already spoken to another breeder to jointly bid for the double diamond, but as the bid for the Scottish National Texal grew. A third breeder also got involved. That said, he was just an excellent animal, with the best genetics.
There were about seven or eight people who actually wanted to buy it and because of that the price went up so much. The meme was sold by Charlie Bowden and the family in Cheshire with their own sportsmen herd. The previous record was in 2007, when a sheep was sold at about 5 per cent less than a lamb.
