At catalogue we have had 3 cutting over 7kgs of tidy velvet. They are exceptional looking animals and we are so proud of how they look. These Forrester's have been achieving fantastic results for those of you who have purchased them in the past and this years batch are next level. Come and have a look for yourselves....you wont be disappointed.
these animals certainly tick all the boxes for these attributes.
The country where we farm our hinds has changed over the years and it is important we have
bloodlines that can perform in these conditions. Being able to not only survive under adverse
conditions but also regain body weight to conceive early is very important. We fawn our
Forresters on hill country and they must perform as commercial deer are expected to. EBV's are
important for selection, but just as important are hardiness, reproduction and Johnes resilience.
Velvet is a valuable commodity and these deer must carry genetics that pass-on the ability to
grow good, clean velvet. We are always endeavouring to improve this.
Over the past 12 months we have milked, yes milked, our Forrester hinds. We will again do this
next season, milking the Forrester hinds and hope to have data come through as to how well
our bloodlines milk. Having high lactating Forrester hinds to rear a large terminal fawn is a
valuable trait to add to our Forrester line. This is a very exciting program and looking forward to
seeing the results.
Having quantifiable data like an Angus catalogue is where we see the Forrester bloodlines in the
future. Mating this type of female to a B11 Terminal sire to produce the ideal carcass, or keeping
your herd Red is your choice. There is a range of growth EBV's represented in the sale that will
be ideal for both.
As always we stand behind the stags we sell and if there is anything you wish to know about any
of the stags please ring me or call by for a viewing.
Regards,
Steve Blanchard |
