We are talking to you about Barnett Rollo R5 today, one of our young sire prospects, which we're quite excited about, and also 2 Semen Sires (Barnett Command Q6 and Barnett Dusty Q7) we have bred, and we compare them with some others in the industry.

We've got semen available on these bulls and we thought we would just compare them with the industry standard bearers.

So we've done what we call a ‘Dare to Compare’. The BarnettAngus Semen Sires with the bulls that have hit the headlines this year.

We've talked about the Donors, but today we're going to talk about the Sires.

The first one we're going to start off with is one that we all know about: Millah Murrah Paratrooper P15 broke records, quite some time ago, it seems, actually at $160,000. He’s a Compliment 8088 grandson.

Of course you can't go past Texas Iceman R725 and his mother, the Undine H647 cow. She has got a track record, which is hard to beat. Texas Iceman R725 is by the American sensation, POSS Maverick. POS Maverick sired a bull recently that was sold for almost a million bucks in the United States, which is not too shabby.

I want to talk to you about our donor cows today. We're very excited about what we've got on offer from these girls.

We started out, with three donor cows quite some time ago; two of which have really bubbled to the top J23 and J53.

And we've a number of their progeny in the donor herd that we want to share.

So come and learn more in our Blog Post and on our YouTube Channel.

In this interview I had the pleasure of engaging with Harvey and Michael and get their views on the Dec 2nd offering on Elite Livestock.

Harvey visited the herd and viewed the recipient program about a month ago along with Peter Daniel (MD of GDL) and one of their long-time commercial clients – Mick Gibson.

Michael was the auctioneer who sold us a couple of our donor cows as well as officiating at the Texas Angus sale with Harvey when Texas Iceman – one of our feature mating sires – was sold for an Australian record price.
