They are absolutely gorgeous! I had a female Texel a few years ago. She was purebred Texel and was being shown at a competition in PA. Alas she had pea-eye and was disqualified from competition. I expressed interest in her, and the owner gave her to me saying "I'm happy to just give her to you......I just want her to have a good home". I took her home to my neutered male and it was love at first sight for both..
