14 January 2014

2014 has started off on the right foot with us selling one of the first daughters from our best breeding cow Haltcliffe Avon. Claragh Hotpants, 21 months old and is sired by Wilodge Ceberus. This makes her 3/4 brother to the 11,500gns Claragh Fantastic & the 24,000gns Claragh Franco, whose first progeny have sold to 8,800gns at 14 months old. 

Two full sisters to Hotpants have been retained. One of her full sisters was NI Junior Heifer Champion 2013. Hotpants is in top 2% of the breed with 200 Day Milk of +4 and her dam Avon is the top 1% for 200 Day milk. She sells to the Bassingbourn Herd of Mr D.F Turner in Fordham, England.

We would like to wish them the best of luck with their new purchase
