Rawlings Blueprint
Rawlings Blueprint
As the polled gene is dominant and so only requires it to be passed on from one parent you can see why we are so excited to have several bulls of different bloodlines with which to introduce this much desired trait into our whole herd.
Rawlings Blueprint (above) DOB 24/09/06 has served over 90 cows and has given us the greatest herd improvement in terms of depth, volume and width consistently from all types of females. He is tested homozygous (double) polled which confirms what we have always suspected, and he will only produced polled calves. A limited number of semen shares are available in Blueprint, with his genetics already being sold to Western Australia, New South Wales and Victoria, but be quick to get these quality polled red bloodlines. Blueprint's daughters in milk have all classified highly with several gaining a VG rating which shows the consistency he is producing and which we are striving to achieve. Rawlings Delta Blue has classified EX90, we are very pleased with her score, particularly the improvement in legs and feet, and her dual purpose characterisitics. Blueprint has classified VG88 in October 2012, up two points on his previous score, which pleases us greatly. In April 2014 Blueprint has reclassified EX90, the first polled bull in Australia to classify EX, and something which is not eailsy achieved . To score an EX classification he must have 5 or more daughters at VG or higher, which shows the consistency he is producing and which we are striving to achieve. On this classification alone he has 8 daughters at VG or higher. Way to go Blueprint, you have done us proud!!

Rawlings ET
Rawlings ET (below) has very different genetics to the rest of our herd on his dam's
side and has also tested homozygous polled. He carries red and his progeny to date have been outstanding. He has a small stature and excellent back end width. We will get ET collected if we have enough interest. He classified VG88 in April 2014.

Rawlings Grand Design
Rawlings Grand Design
Rawlings Grand Design is a son of ET, he has outstanding genetics on his dam's side in terms of udder structure. Something which we hope will be passed onto his daughters. His first calves have arrived and have been small in size for ease of calving for our heifers.
Imported American Semen
We have purchased some elite polled gentics from some American bulls that I have been admiring for some time, who are homozygous polled, two red and one dun. These bulls have similar dairy attributes as our own herd so our udder structure should not be compromised, while we are hoping to improve legs and feet.
Thanks to Gabriella Nanci for entrusting us with her genetics which we are sure will compliment very much our lines here in Australia and will add some polled genetic diversity to the Australian herd.
Limited shares are available with only two shares in Belle Fourche Clay left!!
Due to buyer default I have one share left in Mrald Overture. Overture is a homozygous polled dun bull that has good udder lines and has a very impressive dam in HV Saltaire Susie who in her own right has produced some very structurally correct calves. We are very happy with the Overture calves born at our stud, a red bull calf and a dun heifer.

Belle Fourche Macintosh
Macintosh's semen was collected in the US and he has passed all his importation testing requirements. This young bull has an outstanding temperament and his breeder Gabriella Nanci is very impressed with his first calves. He is out of Belle Fourche Apple and by Belle Fourche Cheddar, so offers something different from his herd mates. He is homozygous polled, red and A2/A2. This semen is available exclusively in Australia at this stage, and is now available. Get in quick to express your interest as shares will not last.
