• Just the latest…

    …a summing up of a half dozen great lines combined just on the sires side here.  A special delivery to Thistle Hill today. Our natural service calves will be coming now that we’ve concluded with our artificial breeding portion of the herd.  It’s been a memorable season for Church who concluded his second annual efforts with successes such as Potherridge President, Champson Defender and Tilbrook Sunset.  Add in some bulls that have only recently passed their first birthday and Thistle Hill now is the repository of the most complete traditional pure English champion Devon’s available anywhere.  Why not treat yourself to a Thistle Hill Christmas.

  • Update: Defender…

    …who seems on track to become one of our key herd bulls. Right now Defender is on lease to the Rohwer’s Sun Eats Farm in Maryland.  Since he has taken charge Church has developed a thriving business supplying bulls to farms who can’t quite justify a full-time sire of their own. And of course it helps us manage our large battery of bulls.  It also develops progeny history and of course gives a bull more opportunity for what a bull does! Defender is new to the US…Church imported his semen and AI-ed to a Cashtiller granddaughter to give us the first American Defender. David
