Bloksdal MiLady has had a calf

Despite the fact that Bloksdal Matador -ET V.B. (Vaillant x Anabelle) is no longer a 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 in shows with great success. The calf will be numbered 423 and will be called Bloksdal Uman.

Fantastic weight

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 Silvia (408) sold

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.

Visit from the School of Agriculture

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.

First calf of the year

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.

We have bought a new bull

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.
