Bulls,  Highwayman,  Traditional Devon

A piece of cake….

20140725_22….the folks at North American Breeders wondered if this young English Devon bull had the experience to mount a bigger steer in the middle of a barn…no restraints for either.  They needn’t have worried.

Traditional Devon’s™ Highwayman acted like he could do it all day….but it only took several times to gather enough semen.  And a billion per whatever and almost no malformed semen!  It’s what grass fed bulls can produce.  Corn fed bulls can’t match that performance.

Highwayman is headed for South Carolina and our partners, the Walkers, after breeding several test cows here at Thistle Hill.  Their calves are due in a few more months.  We want to have a backup semen supply from of all of our English bulls before we put them on the road.

As the vet said about Highwayman, “really an excellent production from such a young bull.  Can’t wait to see what he does when he grows up!”  We can’t wait to see what he looks like when he grows up!  The similarity to his sire, Millennium Falcon, increases every day.
