REFERENCE
SIRES
The Dunlop Park herd
offers a rare resource
for Australian Angus breeders, a high proportion of Australian
bloodlines. We have bred to retain the features of the Australian cow
herd that has been the strong foundation for the success of the Angus
breed today.
Current Sires
Dunlop
Park Blackmore B73 is an
Australian trait leader for low birth weight, but that is not his only
attribute.
His New
Zealand bloodlines have given him excellent
muscling and until this years scan he recorded our highest ultrasound
scan EMA.

Talooby Zulu Z98
is the second of 2 introductions to the Dunlop
Park herd from the Grieves family's Talooby Stud at Rhylstone in New
South Wales. The Talooby herd
has been bred with an emphasis on the confirmation and carcase quality
that
we desire in Angus cattle. Zulu has added frame size to our cattle and
produced many outstanding offspring.
