SIRES

KARRAGARRA MILES (PP) D5

Karragarra Miles (Glenlands Pistol/Karragarra Haldana) was selected for his depth, thickness, bone, a strong polled head, tidy underline and quiet temperament.  Purchased at the National Bull Sale in 2016 for $38,000, this gentle giant has maintained his weight, libido, and fertility. He has consistently achieved excellent pregnancy rates, producing low birth weight calves and weighty weaners, during the seven mating seasons since purchase.  His sons have sold to a top of $22,000 and daughters to $12,000.

 

NINDETHANA KENSINGTON (PP) D5  

Kensington (RSVP Jackpot/Nindethana Hazel) was retained for stud duties in 2020. An early maturing calf with exceptional weight for age, Kensington was an evolving package of everything we had been searching for in others.  He is as long as a train and has incredible bone and muscling, tremendous depth, a beautiful sire’s head, and a lovely tropical coat.  His temperament is truly second to none. Kensington launched onto the show circuit in 2019 and at 11 months of age, was awarded the Junior Champion Droughtmaster Bull at the Royal Queensland Show. COVID-19 cut short his potential to shine further in the showring however, his potential as a sire has been well and truly realised.  Kensington’s first sons will be offered for sale this spring.

 

GLENLANDS J BOJANGLES (PH) D5

Glenlands J Bojangles (Glenlands D Vass/Halcyon Ottie) was purchased at the 2020 Glenlands Sale for $55,000. He has a lovely tropical coat, is soft and has an abundance of loose skin.  He is structurally correct with good bone, depth, and thickness, and to top it off, he has a gentle nature.  Bojangles’ first sons will be offered for sale this spring.
