Sons of Octoraro Viking 527.
Heifers have calved to Pinebank Waigroup 152/04 A.I. and then to the native Scottish bulls, Sinclair/Dunlouise 716K, Sinclair/Dunlouise 720 E, and Sinclair/Dunlouise 733 K. Birth weights were excellent.
All cows born in 2005 and 2006 have calved to Pinebank Waigroup 14/02 A.I. and then to the bulls of pure Wye breeding, Calvour of Wye UMF 9153 (a son of Favour of Wye) and SBR Prince 575 (a grandson of Prince of Malpas).
Older cows calved to Pinebank Waigroup 41/97 A.I. and then to Calumet of Wye UMF 9063 ( a son of Codova of Wye).
E.T. calves were sired by Dunlouise Cortachy Boy D137.
With over 80 New Zealand bred calves on the ground we can affirm that they are black, vital, and uniform in type and look forward to what we believe is our best calf crop ever which will also include the first calves in this herd to be sired by native Scottish bulls.
This year’s select sale cows will all be born in 2004 and listed by the first week in September when they may be viewed with their calves. The sale cows will be sired by sons of the incomparable Prince of Malpas, Lodge of Wye, Leonid of Wye and Viking GD60. Also in early September we will select the next crop of bulls for sale and they too, can be seen at their dam’s side.
