U S welcomes first Texel lambs at Nebraska research center
The United States registers its first Texel lamb crop at the Roman L. Hruska U S Meat Animal Research Center in Clay Center Nebraska with 35 lambs born to 20 ewes and 31 surviving. Imported from Finland and Denmark under strict scrapie safeguards the new stock will be isolated for five years while researchers test Texel merits for growth leanness and maternal traits.
