How do you even start describing the lead off heifer in this elite offering?? The first thing that stands out to us is her complete phenotype being growthy, long, level, thick ended, heavy structured, and all in a feminine package. The sire to 140/2 is VL Rojo Mocho 5/140 (P) who is represented in the majority of the offering. We have used 5/140 successfully in both our natural and IVF programs with a majority of polled calves on horned cows. The dam to VL Elena 140/2 is a young cow that has calved each year and is backed by some of our most proven genetics to include +VL Rojo Apache 1/50 who is our most popular sire due to the success of his offspring around the world, the International Champion Mr. KC Whiskey 20/7, and the International & World Congress Champion cow who produced an International Champion daughter, +VL Elena 170/4. As most know we breed ALL PURPOSE CATTLE at Santa Elena Ranch that combine phenotype, pedigree, and performance. To complete this package 140/2 should produce low birth weight offspring that are moderate for growth, daughters that milk extremely well, and are well marbled. VL Elena 140/2 is halter broke and should have the phenotype to be competitive in the show ring. We think this top female is an outstanding breeding piece and a good representation of our program!
VL Elena 140/2 was scurred and has been de-scurred.
