You not keen on your Kodaks?

Tournament is dead. I am sure the Cogent rep phoned me to ask if I wanted any more before he was sold out.
No have to say they look like they'll be around for a long time but he's not a bull I'd go out and use again if he was available. Bit annoyed about tournament cos I wanted to try him.

Also used Classic,Curtis and Kodak from Avoncroft,probably the ones I'm least keen on are the Kodaks,rep rang up to offer some of the last straws but we didn't bother.

Some reading on Dutch Red & Whites available in the UK.
Many of the black & white dutch HF are red factor carriers.

What dont you like about your Kodaks? I used him pretty heavy, 200 straws i think, but none milking yet.
I use nothing but Red and White Holstein because i want to keep the red colour in my rotations. I have used only CRV/Avoncroft because the dutch breed them stronger.
I have used Lilac, Fidelity, Kodak, Fantasy, Debutant and currently using Stellando.

Have you had any fantasy calves yet? Stellando looks like he is built like a brick sh1t house.

The few Kodaks we have seem to have a shallow foot angle,not the best for digi dermatitis.I forgot about Fidelity,we've some of those as well,good cattle.

I couldn't agree more, it's a thing called a fresianI just like them. Looking at cows 365 days of the year it's nice to have something pleasing to the eye.

There's a lot better bulls than tournament, so don't be annoyed.

I hope so as I've been using him on some Ayrshire/ red and white cows, hoping for some red and white calves

Bred a couple of red and white friesians by accident really, wasn't looking for red, but that was how they came out. One is out of Langley Evolution from a Patterton Promise cow, the other is out of Winnoch Umpire from a Blackisle Maverick cow, nothing frail about either of them.
