Calf number 422 has now been born here at the farm. Bloksdal Opal (Cristal-DK x Bloksdal Hæmatit) has had a calf. She herself gave birth to the 55 kg heifer calf. The calf is by our stockbull Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. (Vaillant x Anabelle).

We are waiting for the last calves and for the weather to allow some field work. In the meantime, we have had the last females examined for pregnancy.

We can therefore inform you that we expect calves from the following bulls this autumn;

• Major (Berlioz x Charmille)
• Glasgow (Apache x Dentelle)
• Heracles (Royal Excellent x Demoiselle)
• Utrillo-BP (Major x Fatcha)

Our new bull Tornado P after the French polled bull Indou PP (Cabar P x Faustine) and Polka Hvirring P (Chic x Katrine Hvirring P), which we bought from Hvirring Charolais from Jette and Bjarne Pagh in December, has today delivered a fantastic 365 day’s weight.

Today he was weighed on a bridge scale, which said an impressive 740 kg. Which is corrected to an annual weight of 708 kg. He weighed 59 kg at birth, which means he has gained 1778 grams per year. day since he was born.

The Danish Charolais breed average for bulls at 365 days is 595 kg, while the average for daily gain is 1490 grams.

We are very excited to follow his continued development, and are still very happy with him and his good temperament.

Bloksdal Smarties (410) was born on 25/10/2021 and is by Cristal-DK (Romeo x Tulipe) and Bloksdal Jelana (Utrillo-BP x Bloksdal Elana -ET). If you need a heifer with an exciting with French pedigree and a good temperament, then here is a really good offer. You can see pictures of her on Facebook and Instagram.
In addition to Smarties, we still have several very promising young bulls for sale as well as females of various ages. If you are interested, check the “animals for sale” tab here on the website and feel free to contact us online or by mail. telephone (+4551714574).

Today Bloksdal Silvia (Japon SC x Bloksdal Miva) has left us. She has been driven to Southern Jutland, where her new owner is Rene Andersen.

Silvia is a heifer with a suitable size and fleshing but not least a good temperament. She is a full sister to Bloksdal Ronaldo P (395) who at the Kimbrerskuet in 2021, was shown fifth best animal and was awarded the show’s best younger bull. Lineage has therefore proven itself in the past and we look forward to following her development.

We hope that Silvia and Rene will be a good match, wish them luck and say thank you for the deal.

This week we had a visit from Kamilla and Mads from Nordjyllands Landbrugsskole, Lundbæk, who wanted to learn a bit about Charolais.
They are going to a big show in Paris in March, where they will compete against other students from agricultural schools in judging Holsteins and Charolais. We hope they had a good experience and hopefully could help them to do well. In any case, we wish them the best of luck.

Today we got the first calf of the year. It was Bloksdal Rolana (Lorsini x Bloksdal Olana) who became a mother for the first time.

The calf’s father is the Angus bull Thy Lasse.

Bloksdal Rolana herself gave birth, without any problems, to the 42 kg and very fresh bull calf.

This combination between Charolais and Angus has been created at the request of Viking Genetics – so maybe sometime in the future Bloksdal Undercover P (421) will become a breeding/insemination bull with them.

He is bought at Hvirring Charolais from Jette and Bjarne Pagh. The bull, named Tornado P, is after the French polled bull Indou PP (Cabar P x Faustine) and Polka Hvirring P (Chic x Katrine Hvirring P). He was born on 6 March 2022 and today weighs an impressive 570 kg. It is a polled bull that we think is very exciting and with a great temperament.

Today we had a visit from progeny inspector Torben Andersen from Seges, where we were awarded five cows.

They were all rated between 84 and 88 overall, which we are very pleased with. The best cow this time was our 2-calf cow Bloksdal Opal (Cristal-DK x Bloksdal Hæmatit).

All our adult animals in the herd have now been awarded again and the average is 86.0 (the national average is 80.0). Our three best rated are, in addition to Bloksdal Opal, our current bull Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. and his full sister Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET which are both by Vaillant x Anabelle and bought as embryos from Elevage Sallé charolais

Bloksdal Miva (Bloksdal Juvel x Bloksdal Diva) gota polled bull calf today.

Miva also had a polled bull calf Bloksdal Ronaldo P (Japon Sc) in 2019, which won the title, best young bull, at the show in Aars (Kimbrerskuet 2021). This calving went just like the previous four calvings, so that Miva gave birth to the calf herself without help. Miva has also been appointed by Denmark’s Charolais Association as a potential bull mother and this time has a calf by Iceberg PP (Forgeot P x Flamme P).

The calf weighed 58 kg at birth, will be number 420 and will be named Bloksdal Tarzan P.
