The genetic heritage of a Yarrawonga Santa Gertrudis is one that spans across a map of sires, encompassing their attributes. When choosing genetics for our operations (both internal and introduced genetics), we select our sires based on a strict set of standards. These standards ensure structural correctness, maximum muscle patterning and safe temperamental attributes are infused in our future herd and sale progeny.
Since 1956, Yarrawonga Santa Gertrudis have used a variety of quality seed stock genetics across our herd.
More of our Sires on Parade can been viewed in our current sale catalogue, however below are some of our main sires or this years sale.
Here are some of our Sires on Parade:
2013 Brisbane Junior Champion Bull, 2014 Brisbane Senior and Grand Champion Bull. A moderate growth bull with exceptional weight for age, the consistent tremendous carcass and constitution attributes are like nothing we have seen before and are evident in his progeny.
Sired by Yarrawonga Corvette (P) and 2019 Emerald Feature Show, Champion Bull Calf and Grand Champion Bull.
2018 Brisbane Ekka Junior Champion. His constitution and growth are evident in his progeny.
Yarrawonga purchased Floyd for $90,000 in 2017 in partnership with Diamond H stud. Every time we collected semen from Waco Floyd we collected over 250 straws, which had a morphology above 90%. His sons are following his example with impressive fertility, temperament, muscle and growth.
