Even more exports for the Hereford breed

The Herefords do it again.........I'm reguarly mentioning demand for native genetics and the Hereford breed has come up trumps again.

Following a visit of French Hereford breeders in early December, nine bulls have been sold to France.

The consignment consisted of two bulls from Welsh breeder Dennis Jones of the Dendor herd, who following a successful show season collected the National Show Herd of the Year award last year.

Ralph Bailey of Llancillo Hall, South Herefordshire, sold the only horned bull int he consignment, April born Llancillo Hall Burin 3rd, by the Hereford Sire of the Year, Border General V85.

Glos-based breeder, Andrew Hobson of the Eldersfield prefix and Michael Clark of Lowesmoor Herefords, sold three bulls between them.

Surrey based Barry Myers of Boundless Herefords, provided the final three bulls, two sons of Boundless 1 Strike-Out and a Boundless 1 Voltage son.
