WISTON DUTCH TEXELS

RAMS used in 2018

'Yohan', my senior stock ram, was joined by 'Borodin' a son of 'Winsum'. He is a long and powerful ram lamb out of a Tollhouse daughter. The new acquisition 'Bennedict' was a suggestion from his breeder and an impulse purchase. He has extreme length, tremendous width and solid overall muscling.

4210-2184 'Yonker'

Registered here as RHW93 218. Used for several years and an outstanding breeder of females. Famously known as the A-ram from P Verberne.

4030-2394

Delos was bred by C Kikkert who sold him because of his genotype ARR/ARH. A ram which produced easy lambing females and some exceptional sons.

Eryx August 1999

Eryx was a rare find: son of the famous 03938 - 2600 he was the most correct ram I had seen in the Commandeur flock so far. Blessed with a fine white head and the characteristic width in the hindquarters, he and his son Gonzales sired a pen of six shearling ewes which sold for the highest average in Lanark in 2003.

RHW00 879 Wiston Gonzales

sired by Eryx, 03938 2852, used 2001 onwards. A ram with the coveted ARR/ARR genotype, still rare in 2001. He inherited Eryx's width in the hindquarters and a fine head from both sire and dam. Used for several years and the sire of three lovely females sold at Lanark in 2003.

4210 3747 Hutch

At the beginning of that decade it was still difficult to find good rams with the required genotype. Bought in 2002, this ram was a return to Verberne bloodlines. A correct ram with excellent legs and skin.
