Texels

Texels
My favorite Texel ever :)

Breed Description:

Imported from England, Texels became a recognized breed in the
US in 1998. They are known for their curls/ringlets that form
their long, soft coat. They are one of the newest breeds of cavies
today. You do not have to brush a Texels coat (according
to US standards). Actually, if you do you can frizz their beautiful
curls. It is better to finger-pick it as you pet them each day.
You can check them weekly for any mats that might occur
from bedding becoming entangled in the hair, etc & trim as needed.
If you plan on showing your Texel, you are best to keep them
on something other than pine shavings. I find cotton towels
changed & laundered daily works great as does shredded
cardboard bedding & pelleted beddings.

My lines go back to Galatea's, Paisley's,
Marjean's Piggalle's, KSJ Cavies, Kayleigh's Caviary,
Rapunzel's, Iverson's, Ginder's & Mollica's in PA. I'm
proud to be able to say that almost all of my Texel herd
is stock that I've produced here in my caviary.
Most now carry my animals 4-5 generations back.

** Please note that I added my Alpaca's pics to this page because
I only have a few Alpaca's at this time. I may have to breed
my Alpacas back into a few of my Texels in the hopes of
producing more beautiful Alpacas.

** I have recently retired several of my older sows &
have added some new stock to my herd. Watch for
updates with more info & pics, coming soon!
