I am pretty certain he didn't carry myostatin. He was imported by my sister and brother in law and shows up multiple times in many pedigrees, 40 to 60 times in some cases and I don't know of a double muscled issue. I did have Super Flag tested for TH and PH and his is free of both of those. We...

I believe there is still semen to be found in Australia but The Grove Kookaburra W735 is deceased so there will be no more international semen available. The semen imported into Canada can't be exported to the US and there isn't much available in Canada.We only have a few straws left and have...

Duncraggan as you point out his EBV's are exceptional and they are based on a large number of animals. He shows up in the breeding of a lot of top Australian bulls. I think for countries like Australia and the UK with their branded meat programs the combination of EMA, IMF and retail beef yield...

The Grove Kookaburra W735 is mentioned in several threads on SP. He has been used in many Australian herds and has very high accuracy EBV's. He is currently a trait leader for 7 traits and above average in 18 out of 20 traits in the Australian herd book. Only a limited amount of semen was...

Those are very nice heifers, I love the looks of the JT Titan 3T heifer! We used a son of Titan many years ago and he left us some top producing daughters.We also used a bull linebred to Highfield Irish Mist and again he left good producing daughters. I went on some herd tours at the time Iris...

I really like her, she should make a great brood cow (thumbsup)

This was posted by one of the sale reps "48 lots grossed $306,255 to average $6,380. Top sellers were lot 25 at $20,000 and lot 21 at $14,750." (thumbsup)

Well hopefully you will get a bull next year. When Jacqueline and Jaimie visited Belmore they were very impressed with The Grove Kookaburra W735 cows. They have produced a lot of top herd bulls there. We only have one female by him, a good red two year old. We only had three Kookaburra calves...

Here is another one of the bull calves by Diamond Lord Belmore 56B out of a two year old owned by Jaimie and Prav. This guy's dam is by Diamond Xplosion 23X and out of Diamond Whitney Maid 14W, a daughter of Diamond Regal Legend 4R. First photo taken this week,second as a new born and third is...

Two nice looking calves there. Fancy heifer! (thumbsup)

Thanks for the comments. He does show some of Legend's traits. His dam is doing really well as a two year old and has a very nice udder. She is a full sister to ACC General 4U. Here is a photo of the sire of the white calf taken last May when he was out with the cows.

I thought I saw somewhere the chance of a deformed calf was higher when you mated a DSC to a PHAC than if you mated a DSC to a DSC.

Unfortunately their are quite a few errors with the data input at ASA and the new system seems to be worse than the old. One of the bulls we used this year had the wrong grandsire listed(and this bull is double registered so is in both ASA and CSA and his pedigree was right in the CSA system) I...

Mark I think you are referring to the pen of three bulls we had in Denver in 1998. That was our first year in the pen show there. They were three half brothers sired by Diamond Macbest 54B. We purchased these 3 bulls from GAFA Shorthorns. The lead off bull, Gafa Captain Macbest 6G, we retained...

All our tests the last few years have been done with hair samples, can you not use hair?

Last year I posted some photos of bred heifers. Here is one of the calves by Diamond Lord Belmore 56B. He is out of a Northern Legend 3N daughter Diamond Baroness 3B.

There are some really good looking bull calf prospects there!

Some really good cows (thumbsup)

I think the association should be commended for getting this started! The breeders that take advantage of this will learn a lot about their bulls and it will help the breed with accuracy's and getting to the next level. Here is a recent update on the Morrisons program in Great Britain, that...
