Carlisle Bull Sales
- May 2004
The sole entry from the Rumsden Herd at the Carlisle
Spring Sale was Rumsden Ullapool. A Jan 2003 born son of Allanfauld Vagabond,
Ullapool was 6th in the same class as the Champion, and went on to sell
well above the average, at 4,500gns. Ullapool was the first calf of an
ET heifer, Rumsden Ritz ET. Ritz is a daughter
of Hampton Ballarat (whose bulls have made up to 8,500gns) and Andrews
Miracle,
a previous stock bull here at Rumsden. Miracle daughters have great maternal
traits. They
all have plenty of milk, and are very easy to handle, and most will cross
suckle. One Miracle daughter that lost its calf in October 2004 has run
with the herd and continued to milk well all winter, and had loads of
milk still when weaned from the cows and calves group in May 2004! Ullapool
was the first bull from a Miracle cow to be sold. Look out for Rumsden
Upstanding (Derryharney Outstanding) and Rumsden Udimore (Doonally
New),
both August 2003 born sons of Miracle cows.
