Originally formed in 1980 with the purchase of 5 pure Dutch imports and the ram Annan Jaguar.  The Beautry flock has enjoyed success in both the show and sale rings.  We were Supreme Champion at The Royal Show on 3 different occasions and topped the averages twice at The Scottish National Sale Lanark during the late 80s.  One daughter of Jaguar was Beautry Margaret who was Reserve Female Champion at The Royal Show in 1983 and 1984 and when sold for 8,200gns held the world record for a female at auction.  Beaurty Portia was another noted daughter being Supreme Champion at The Royal in 1987 and 1989.  Males of note sired by Jaguar included: Beautry Nazarov at 7,400gns and Molotov Cocktail at 4,500gns.  Sadly the original flock was lost in 2001 due to Foot and Mouth but in 2002 the original recipe was repeated with the importation from North Holland and the purchase of Baltier Jaguar.  Beautry Karen, a daughter of Jaguar won 1st prize ewe lamb at The Great Yorkshire Show in 2004 and then sold for 5,500gns.  Jaguar himself was Champion Male at The Royal Show in 2004 and sired ram lambs to 13,000gns for Beautry Kribensis and 4,000gns for Beautry Lanzarote.  This combination forms the basis of the current flock and the Dutch influence has been further enhanced with the introduction of Rathbone Leader in 2007.

Carcase quaility combined with good feet and legs continues to be a priority in breeding Texel sheep within the Beautry flock.
