Black Grove Erica 054 is an exciting young donor out of Castle Hill Erica C035, the greatest full sister of Leachman Right Time, who sold 1/2 interest to Sauk Valley Angus in our 2006 Sale for $60,000, a valuation of $120,000. Black Grove Erica 054 looks just like her dam, C035.
The genetics in C035, Right Time and EXT are unmatched in the breed for consistently producing highly valued functional females. This functionality is epitomized by their structural soundness, beautiful udders, easy fleshing, fertility, good dispositions and performance. The longevity of her sire and brother and the esteem with which their progeny are held is the market’s truest test of genetic value. The market has recognized this by the way it has valued the genetics going back to the sale of her record-setting dam.
Her sire, SVF Bandolier, is considered one of the heaviest muscle bulls in the breed history. Click on Sires – Reference to see more about Bandolier. Black Grove Erica 054 is feminine like her dam. She has a beautiful head, a perfect udder, excellent structure and a great disposition.
Her first calf by GAR Predestined had a birth weight of 68 pounds and a weaning weight of 715 pounds. Needless to say she milks very well and validates her milk EPD of +25.
We are looking forward to exploring the future with this young donor. Watch for her progeny in our future sales or call us to discuss how this tremendous young female can help your program in the future.
