WAIRARAPA TEXEL DEVELOPMENTS Wairarapa Texel Developments was formed in 2016 by Andy Phillips and Stewart Cowan. The base flock of Texel ewes were sourced from the original Wairarapa Texel Developments which was one of the first Texel studs in New Zealand. With the purchase of Fairlea Stud from the Manawatu 2017-18 also a well known established stud, Wairarapa Texel Developments has become one of the larger Texel studs in New Zealand. Currently lambing 650 ewes at Motumatai, 20 minutes east of Masterton. The partners have addressed the of lack of selection pressure within the Texel stud breeding industry. All stud ewes are run within a commercial flock of 2700 ewes at Motumatai. Thus allowing us to breed Texels that have true selection pressures put on them. Ewe hoggets are mated. All male and female progeny are EMA scanned with only the best retained for stud. A continuous concentrated effort by the partners to insure structure, muscling and fertility are abundant in our flock, has led to strong sales of well grown functional terminal and maternal sires. With the Myomax gene ( muscling) present, lambs are higher yeilding often $8.00 to $11.00 per head on yeild grading processing.
FLOCK No 10 SIL No 2960 Stud sires are:
-Microphthlmia clear -DNA footrot scored -DNA cold tolerance scored -Myomax Gold only -Brucellosis accredited
With over 100 Rams for sale this year !
