Bullocks are sold off as Jap Ox at 2 ½ years, while cull heifers are sold into the local trade market. Our bulls come from the top percentage of male calves, they are selected on type, temperament, easy doing ability, clean coated, well muscled, good sheathed and early maturity.
Our sale bulls are paddock reared, with 100 days of silage preparation before the sale. Paddock bulls are always available.
