THE pedigree Texel flock from Procters Farm took the three leading prices at Skipton Auction Mart’s first pedigree fixture of 2021, the 28th annual open winter sale of Texel females for members of Northern Area Texel Sheep Breeders. With planned show classes cancelled, Jeff Aiken, flock manager at Procters Farm, based at Moss House Farm, Wennington, close to the Lancashire-Yorkshire border, hit the headlines when stepping up with a high price in-lamb shearling ewe hat-trick, leading the way at 3,200gns with a March, 2019, daughter of the highly-acclaimed Garngour Alabama son, Sportsmans Batman, a notable 100,000gns purchase last year. Out of a Teiglum Younggun dam and a full sister to the Procters Farm 14,000gns sale topper at the January Gems sale in Ballymena the previous week, the Skipton top price performer, scanned carrying a single lamb to the Sportsmans Catapult son, Llyfni Droog, found a new home in Shropshire with Ben Lowe.
