Yield	Texels are consistently winning carcass competitions all over Australia and worldwide. When sold “over the hooks” Texels are shown to have a yield advantage.
Taste	Texel cross lambs have had great success in taste competitions. Their placid nature is believed to be partly responsible for the tenderness. One of the very pleasantly surprises is the mild aroma while cooking. “You can really taste the difference.”
Muscle	Texels have superior muscling compared to other terminal sire breeds. They have been incorporated into other breeds to enhance muscling within flocks. The Texel breed is most likely to gain high scores when a carcass grading system is introduced. The carcass shape and muscling translates into appropriate premium red meat cuts perfect for the hospitality industry and to-days health conscious consumer of Trim Lean Lamb.
Lean	Texel Rams produce lambs that measure leaner than other terminal sires. Lambs can be grown out to heavier weights without fat penalties.
Flexibility	Texels sired lambs may be slaughtered at any stage from 10 to 52 weeks without the worry of the carcass becoming too fat.
Feed Conversion	Texels have been called the pony of the sheep world, as they are able to utilize very poor pasture and still maintain condition. They will browse if given the opportunity.
Temperament	The lambs, due to their wonderful quiet nature, settle into feedlots very quickly.
Mothering	Texel genetics show great mothering ability and exceptional milk production. The ewes prove to be very protective with their lambs, while maintaining a very quiet disposition, which means less miss mothering.
Survivability	Texel lambs have great birth vigour, which increases your marking and weaning percentage. (Dead lambs have very depressing growth rates)
Improved Ram Utilization	Texels demonstrate a high service capacity while maintaining high fertility. Using proper practices, adult rams are capable of joining at 1%, i.e. 1 ram to 100 ewes.
