5 Nations Native Breed Sale - March 18th 2022 (Archived #246686)

Our sellers, George and Nikki Taylor operate from Mosshall Farm, located in West Lothian, Scotland. The farm has been in the family for over 90 years and until 2008 was operated as a Dairy enterprise. The switch to producing commercial cattle and breeding Pedigree Red Angus was driven by the family's desire to work with cattle that didn't require the same intensity as is required for Dairy. Their commercial herd is crossed back each year to an Angus bull. The Pedigree Red Angus foundation lines were purchased from Kincardine Castle & Imports from Danish herds. Members of the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society although not currently a big showing herd, their Pedigree lines have attracted much interest with Mosshall bred bulls being sold to many pedigree and commercial herds across the UK and Ireland and to AI companies - Genus and Cogent.  

Mosshall Red Henry W117 is a flashy, correct, moderate framed bull with great locomotion and an excellent temperament. He has bags of Angus character, with a leg in each corner to support his even frame. Henry is a well fleshed, shapely bull with zero myostatin. Sired by Mosshall Red Elite who produced the highest priced Red AA bull sold to date at public auction in the UK. Elite is our homebred stock bull who has covered a huge amount of our cows and is a bull we have used year on year, always turning out brilliant calves. His twin brother sold to Cogent. Henry's dam is Mosshall Red Hypatia P477 a homebred cow sired by Oakchurch Red Diplomat, she has produced 5 calves for us to date each calving within the year. Through Henry's bloodline, his progeny should calve easy, be easy fleshing and fertile with plenty of Angus character.
