Background information on each of the Sires used in the embryo program
is given below. Click on the small images to expand them : Neru 55W - He is an example of the legendary Bouncer x Vreneli combination. He was sold to Mexico. - founder of the Original Braunvieh breed in North America. See the Internet for background on this great bull. Aron has been widely used for over 29 years, and is therefore the most tested and proven bull in the breed. - is a son of Ueli and 1T. 1T is a daughter of the import bull Norman, who is also the grandfather of Bouncer 3G. There are very few Norman animals in Canada because he was sold to Mexico. He is however another bloodline than most animals here excluding Bouncer. By 1T we find David, Aron, and Bouncer. Arthur is linebred to Bouncer. - is arguably the best beef bull in the Original Breed. You can read his story on the Internet. We are the only breeder that still has some of his semen and are offering selected embryos only infrequently. At the moment you have the rare opportunity to purchase some of his embryos. - is a half brother of Terrence 1X through his Dam 41T. His sire is Robi Norman (not Normann). I sold Jason to Independent Farms, who later sold him to Western Breeders, who then sold him at a ripe old age to Brazil. - is the son of the import bull Jordan. His dam is Lidia. We used Lutz in our own herd, later sold him to Ken Copithorne, who used him for 4 years and then sold him, as an old bull to Mexico. Lutz is know as the sire of smaller cows with exceptional milking ability, like the mother of Romeo, Carma. - is the son of the legendary bull Bouncer 3G. Bouncer is known as the best beef bull in the Original Braunvieh breed. The most famous bulls in Canada, Mexico, and the USA all go back to Bouncer. Nathans dam is my import cow Lidia. Lidia is also the grandmother of Jason, Terrence and GU Romeo 1Gs dam Carma. With the exception of 644U and Bouncer, all our animals go back to Lidia. Our family has breed with this bloodline for over 50 years. - goes back to the bull Markus, like Lidia. Nelson, like his full sister, Marga, is world famous for his female offspring, like for example IND 40Y. More details on this bull can be seen on the Internet. - does not need a lot of introduction. He has Aron 2 times and Bouncer in his pedigree. He also has 9 import animals in his pedigree. You can see the full story on the Internet. - is an offspring of Riccos, and has 2 more import animals in his pedigree (Lidia and Jordan). This keeps the gene pool as wide as possible. He was sold to Mexico. - was the Mexican Braunvieh Grand Champion in 1990. His sire is Marshall, who is the son of the import cow Norma and Dado. Norma goes, like Trina, back to the bull Admiral. Dado goes back to Dufur like Bouncer goes back 2 times to Dufur. Terrences dam, 41T, is also the dam of Jason. 41Ts sire is Bouncer 3G and her dam is Lidia. The combination of Bouncer and Lidia is surely the most perfect one ever achieved in the North American Braunvieh breed! - was selected because he is totally unrelated to the other import animals. He is a medium size, compact bull, with exceptional beef characteristics. His most well know son is Arthur 4Y that was sold for US$100,000 in Mexico. - is the son of the import bull Marcel, which I selected for export in Switzerland for Ken Copithorne. This bull also goes back to the bull Marco and eventually Markus Fallanden. On his dams side he goes back to the bull Gallus, as does Lidia. 41Ys dam comes from one of Ken Copithornes best cows, 17P. This cow has the German bull Warren on the sire side and Ueli on the dam side. So this bull can be viewed as an Alternative. |
