BEAVER CREEK FARMS
OFFERS PUREBRED MURRAY GREY EMBRYOS
“MADE TO ORDER”
Have you been searching for quality purebred Murray Grey stock and find the
available supply few and far between? You may want to consider embryo purchases
if you desire to build up your purebred herd promptly and bypass the usual
method of saving heifers and trading
bulls. Embryos are also an ideal way to introduce some genetic diversity in your
herd; so you won’t have to change bulls so often!
We intend to flush donor cows two or more times per year. Our donor females are
selected from mature stock, and must have an excellent track record for
fertility and performance. In addition, they must have high scores for the DNA
tenderness genes. One of our donor cows also has the elusive pair of marbling
genes!
One bull we are presently using for our flush program is JOPA Elation Power, the
1989 National Champion. He scored one star for marbling and all SIX stars for
tenderness (Bovigen GeneStar) and the top score of “5”(CC/GG) on the Merial
“TenderGene” test.
Another bull that we use for
embryos is a 1979 bull from Tasmania, Rockliffe Patron (second picture below).
He also has a perfect tenderness score and his calves have been light birth
weights; Like Elation Power, he is a frame score 5.
Contact us if you would like to add these genetics into your herd. These
bloodlines may be ideal for you if you are selling beef or selling seedstock to
those producers that direct-market beef!
