Viola’s EPDs – Fall 2024

Homozygous Polled.  Non-Dilutor.  Full Fleckvieh.  Combining stature and style, Viola represents the results of an eleven year journey from our selection of BEE Vendetta from Beechinor Brothers at Fleckvieh Equation 2013.  Vendetta went on to produce a herd bull for us (APLX Rambo), as well as two sons that topped our string at the Red Deer Bull Sale in their respective years.  We retained all of her daughters and currently have three in production, with all three of them maintaining tight, tidy udders.  Viola is the spitting image of her grandma at a similar age – showcasing that rare combination of substance and femininityThis cross with Battleborn ticks an awful lot of boxes – performance, maternal, carcass traits, and incredible eye appeal.  We are confident that Viola will mature into a front pasture female with endless breeding options!
