Any of that semen for sale @NZDan

I can't send it back to the UK, but I'm hoping to get a good bull to get semen off.

Had a cracking bull born 2014 from a Canadian sired cow fathered by Luing Bracken(brn 1973) unfortunately a stray bullet from the neighbors rabbit shooting kids ended his potential breeding career. But I have got another one born sept 2015 of the same breeding, hopefully he's as good as his brother.

First prize bull and top price in the sale as well at Carlisle yesterday, think he went for 4500gns, but only half the bulls sold, trade was sticky in the Galloways as well with some good cattle going for handy money. Guess some folk had to sell and there's not much money about in the hills at present

That's not him but myself and William picked out Apollo aaa the one we would have bought if we wanted one. Glad he's gone to a good home in the SW

I go by 284 is normal, so 279

 

[M-J-G]

Sounds similar to BSH, I've found them to be in the later 270's as a rule.

Nice heifer with a grand calf @choochter . How's my favourite cow getting on?
