Senior Herd Sire at Balthayock and Balmyle

Hofmeister is the most influential bull we have had at Balthayock during the last 30 years.  His heifers and bulls are of equal quality.   I recommend him to all breeders without reservation.   Semen 50 per straw + VAT (10% discount for 10+ straws)

BOWERHOUSES TOPPER

Born 14/11/82  (Sire : Tattenhall Impeccable   Dam : Goldies Haquenee)

A show champion many times over and the sire of champions over the length and breadth of the country.  One of the great breed improvers, with a tremendous growth performance record and a wonderful temperament.  If you believe that the herd improvement comes from using a blend of the best of the 'old' bulls and the best of the 'new', it may be time to use Topper again to bring size, deep muscling and consistency into your herd.
