HC Bluebook with HC Lady Margie
Embryos from this breeding pair are currently available
Sire - HC Bluebook 22B
Registration (Canadian) M478041
The sire of these embryos HC Bluebook 22B was the highest priced shorthorn bull sold in North America in 2015, the same year he was awarded the Reserve Grand Champion at the Canadian National Shorthorn Show at the Winter Fair in Toronto. Bluebook was sired by Waukaru Orion 2047 who was one of the highest EPD rated bulls in the US, his dam HC FL Sparkle Delight 2X needs no introduction being from Horseshoe Creek’s tremendous Sparkle Delight female line. Bluebook combines tremendous thickness and style with an amazing disposition, he has excellent EPDs being in the top 3% for weaning weight and the top 5% for yearling weight. He had a moderate birth weight of 39 KGs, which gave excellent calving ease results. He has a good top line with length, excellent locomotion. He is also Homozygous Polled and has zero Myostatin. Photo taken at 4 years old.
Dam - HC Lady Margie 26G
Registration (Canadian) *26705
Lady Margie 26G is exactly what we were looking for when we selected the breeding of her mother HC Lady Margie 1E, carrying great Australian genetics of Marellan Ferrari and Royalla Lady Margie. Paired to HC Elderado 68E, with his depth of proven breeding from HC Free Spirit and the Melba Niam female line at Horseshoe Creek. I had then planned to breed 26G on a flush with some Podehole Beefeater semen that I have stored in Canada, to perhaps create myself a possible new herd sire. However, the new genetic import rules now prohibit Beefeater genetics from being imported into the UK even though he was bred here. What a crazy world! Lady Margie 26G is a milky cow with a good udder, is long, deep bodied and has good locomotion with good legs and feet. Photo taken at 16 months old.
