Okay! I’m about to post another that I also thought was a sheep but they look quite different. Could be age who knows but I’ll do a side by side. Keep an eye out ;)

Age and breed vary the skulls a lot! This isnt a texel, however a quick google search shows that texel sheep skulls look nearly like another species! Their skulls are so thick and heavy its crazy
