We have had a visit from our regular hoof trimmer. The animals for the upcoming Kimbrerskuet on 6-7 October 23 in Aars, everyone got a turn in the box and is now completely ready for the show.
Thank you for always good service and treatment at Fjellerad Hoof trimming by Palle Christiansen.

Yesterday was the last registration for this year’s Kimbrerskuet, which will be held on 6-7. October in Messecenter Vesthimmerland in Aars.

True to tradition, we exhibit at this show, where there is usually a large Charolais following with high quality animals.

This year we are exhibiting five animals (four catalog numbers). Two of the animals are regulars from this summer’s animal shows, but we also plan to exhibit one debutant and one that was last exhibited in 2019.

We are looking forward to some good days with friends and colleagues for the last animal show of the year.

We got a really exciting calf on Sunday 13 August 23.

The calf is by our best cow Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET (Vaillant x Anabelle) and the top French bull Glasgow (Apache x Dentelle). The calf, which is a heifer calf, is therefore a full sister to Bloksdal Rosabelle, who was recently voted second best heifer at the recently held National Show.

We are therefore very happy and excited to follow her development.

Mirabelle herself gave birth to the 54 kg calf on the field without any problems and was subsequently taken to the barn.

The calf will be called UltraBelle, which in French means “very beautiful” and will be numbered 424.

Yesterday we had a little over 100 guests visiting for a nice get-together and talk about beef cattle. We showed off our farm and herd and told about our daily life with the animals. We had a lovely evening where we could tell a little about our family and passion for Charolais and hopefully pass on some inspiration to the many present. While some saw and talked about beef cattle, others were on a garden walk at Skovhuset Skråvej in Ferslev.

The organizers were the Beef Cattle Association Himmerland, while the food came from Madgården Arden and DLG sponsored beer/water.

Thanks to all sponsors, organizers and participants for a pleasant evening.

For the second year in a row, we were at the forefront of the competition to be awarded Denmark’s best heifer at the National Show, where last year we won with Bloksdal Piña Colada (Bloksdal Linux -ET V.B. x Bloksdal Liqueur) and came third with Bloksdal Special Lady ( Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. x Bloksdal MiLady). This year we came second in this competition and fifth overall overall with our heifer Bloksdal Rosabelle (Glasgow x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET), which earned an honorary prize from Denmark’s Charolais Association.
This was honorary prize number seven at the National Show within the last six shows held, with seven different animals and different family lines, which we are very proud of and indicates that our breeding work is going very well.

The seven beasts are as follows:
Bloksdal Rosabelle (Glasgow x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET) in 2023
Bloksdal Piña Colada (Bloksdal Linux -ET V.B. x Bloksdal Liqueur) in 2022
Bloksdal Special lady (Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. x Bloksdal MiLady) in 2022
Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET (Vaillant x Anabelle) in 2019
Bloksdal MiLady (Vanggaard Daddy -ET x Bloksdal Unak -ET) in 2018
Bloksdal Hæmatit (Utrillo BP x Bloksdal Diamant -ET) in 2016
Bloksdal Elana -ET (Turbo CE71 x Bloksdal Bailey) in 2016

We have now returned safe and sound from another successful National Show – the Animal Show in Herning.

On Thursday, the animals were judged individually and here the first animal in the court for us was Bloksdal Tur beau (Neptune JC x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET). Tur beau was the youngest in the section , but still got second place with 22 points.

The next animal was Torndao P Hvirring (Indou PP x Polka Hvirring P). He finished second in the group and might have won if his movement on the day had not deteriorated. He therefore had to settle for 21 points.

Wow it was the heifers’ turn and the first animal here was Bloksdal Special Lady (Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. x Bloksdal MiLady). She won her section with 23 points and later went to the honorable mention competition.

Finally, it was Bloksdal Rosabelle’s (Glasgow x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET) turn to enter the court. She was in a large group with many good heifers. She was awarded second place with 23 points and was also to participate in the honorable mention competition.

This was held later the same day and with the participation of 18 animals, which had to fight for 10 honorary prizes. Bloksdal Rosabelle was placed in a nice fifth place out of all the Charolais animals and as second best heifer at the National Show.

On Friday we took part in the herd competition, where we got an overall fourth place.

Finally, we would like to thank everyone who helped make the days at the Landsskuet some good days, we from Bloksdal Charolais have at least enjoyed all the days in Herning. We would like to congratulate everyone on their prizes and placings.

REMEMBER you can see or review the assessment from our live broadcast on our Facebook page and see pictures in the album “Landsskuet 2023”.

We are looking forward to a few good days in Herning with friends and colleagues.

We have now returned home from our first show of the summer. The Show in Hjørring was a little different this year, as Helle and Karsten were invited to the Golden Wedding at Læsø by Kirsten and Bjarne. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them and wish them the best of luck.

It was therefore Kristina, Martin and Anders who exhibited at the show this year. We had three animals with us, all of them did well. We got two first places and one second place. Overall, Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET (Vaillant x Anabelle) was fifth, earning an honorable mention, while Bloksdal Tur Beau (Neptune JC x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET) was seventh.

Now we look forward with great excitement to the upcoming National Show in Herning. In conclusion, we would like to congratulate everyone on their prizes and positions and say thank you for the honorary prize from Realkredit Danmark

In 14 days, the local show in Hjørring will once again run out of stock. We participate as usual with our lovely white animals.
This year we have chosen to participate with four catalog numbers. There are two debutants and two more experienced.
First debutante is not really a debutante, as he has previously been exhibited with his mother. But this is the first time we are exhibiting Bloksdal Turbeau (Neptune JC x Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET) as a single animal. He was born on 22/06/2022.
Next animal is a true debutant. This is our new stock bull, Torndao P Hvirring (Indou PP x Polka Hvirring P), which is from 06/03/2022.
The next animal we exhibited with great success last year, she only achieved 24 points. It is our heifer Bloksdal Special Lady (Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. x Bloksdal MiLady), which is from 02/04/2021.
The last animal in the line is Turbeau’s mother, Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET (Vaillant x Anabelle). She is from 03/12/2016 and exhibited several times with great success.
In any case, we are looking forward to a few good days in Hjørring with good colleagues and healthy competition among the animals

Despite the fact that Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. (Vaillant x Anabelle) is no longer stock bull with us, we fortunately benefit from his genes. He has thus become the father of a fresh bull calf weighing 48 kg.
The mother is Bloksdal MiLady (Vanggaard Daddy -ET x Bloksdal Unak -ET).
This combination is, among other things, parents of Bloksdal Roman and Bloksdal Special Lady, which we have previously exhibited with great success on shows. The calf will be numbered 423 and will be called Bloksdal Uman.
