[QUOTE="regolith, post: 626617, member: 9267"] Thanks. I've bought short gestation Angus for a couple of years, so I knew the bull's code and name would be on the straw (and an overall BV goes against the cow's record for her expected calf, so presumably if the calf was correctly identified and recorded it could be traced back to sire). But the name was literally the only information I had. Looking up the bulls sounds good advice. I've seen Waigroup advertising in the farming papers at pre-mating time, and recognised the name from the straws. Te Mania/Te Maniu (did I spell it wrong?) could have come from anywhere far as I knew - but he threw nice calves if used on a decent cow. [/QUOTE]
