….we spent several days recently inspecting our British calves at Doyle Unruh’s farm in Georgia…and our older heifers just across the state line at Bill and Nancy Walker’s farm in South Carolina. This is an Essington Buttercup son by Millennium Falcon, now almost six months old.\u00a0 Doyle will be holding him on his recipient mother for a few more months. His half-brother, a Goldings Norah son also by Falcon, has an interesting story.\u00a0 Recently our partner in Cornwall, England, Juliet Cleave, posted a picture on her Facebook page of an outstanding young bull . The picture was taken in 1963 and other than the name—\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Uggaton Highwayman 2nd—she was asking if someone had information about him. Wooz checked pedigrees and found that “our” Norah cow had\u00a0the Uggaton herd in her background.\u00a0 So she went back still farther in the records and, sure enough, there was Highwayman!\u00a0 So this young bull in Georgia comes from even more distinguished ancestors. Ivan Rowe, Norah’s breeder, remembers the bull and is now searching to learn whatever\u00a0became of\u00a0the breeder and herd that developed this magnificent animal. Incidentally, while we were in Georgia, embryologist Randall Hinshaw\u00a0implanted 10 more embryos in Doyle’s recipient herd.\u00a0 So there’s more to come!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-england","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2029"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2035,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029\/revisions\/2035"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thistlehill.net\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
