Welcome to our 11th annual South Island 2-year-old red stag sale.
Within our herd we continue to realise great results against our stud’s key measures and stated vision of
producing high value animals, that have a strong venison focus. For example, over the last few years, we
have achieved a loin weight gain of 0.9kgs. Achieving in real terms an average weight of 3.7kgs to 4.6kgs,
for animals of the same liveweight – an outstanding achievement for this important high value, export
market cut.
This year’s sale includes stags sired by:
• Cardrona - this exceptional stag possesses a superb combination of velvet and body weight.
• Churchill - continues to be ranked NO. 1 English stag for W12eBV for 7 years running. This year we
have several of his quality sons on offer.
• Rock Me - once again we have progeny on offer from this key stud sire. He brings an outstanding
bloodline with top performance that delivers on all key maternal traits, as well as exceptional velvet.
• WF 144/05 - is one of our stalwart stags. I can strongly recommend the progeny on offer by this well
proven sire for both maternal and terminal breeding.
• WF 334/11 - has several outstanding sons on offer within the catalogue. They possess solid eBV’s,
growth rates and eye muscle areas to enhance your venison production.
• Icon - is a top performing Deer Progeny Test (DPT) stag for eye muscle area and tenderness.
• Monza - is a pure Eastern with solid growth rates and velvet performance.
• Balton - this awesome stag offers new Eastern blood from Kaposvar in Hungary.
We look forward to presenting our sale animals that will have sale day weights in excess of 250kgs and
continuously improving velvet results, with the very best at over 5kgs as a 2-year-old.
Please note this year we have made the decision to organise the freight on account of the purchaser, unless
specifically requested otherwise. This is to minimise the risk of injury to your purchase/s by reducing the
number of yarding’s and timeliness’ of delivery.
The Wilkins Farming Co team look forward to hosting you at our Athol farm.
Should you have any questions prior to the sale, please do not hesitate to contact one of us.
Yours in farming
