Miss KI 205 is one of our favorite heifers in the sale! As you can tell from her picture and video she is complete in her design being big ribbed, standing on good bone, and eye appealing. The dam to 205 is JDH Lady ABBA Manso 405/7 who we consider to be our top donor due to her being a “no miss” with EVERY bull that she has been mated. 405/7 is by the former J.D. Hudgins show bull JDH Yetti Manso 872/6 and out of the International Sale feature and now proven donor JDH Lady Greta Manso 644/8.
The sire to Miss KI 205 of course is the 2022 International Champion Grey Bull JDH Rafiki Manso 893/7. Remember that the Rafiki calves being offered were the first born and being sold making this an exclusive opportunity! For those that need a refresher on Rafiki he is sired by JDH Jene Manso an outcross sire with 292 registered progeny to include JDH Massai Manso, +JDH Turkana Manso, and JDH Sir Zadig Manso 918/6 just to name a few. The dam to Rafiki is a proven donor who calved naturally before her 3rd birthday and each year afterwards even while being aspirated, produced 15 offspring to include JDH London Manso who is a J.D. Hudgins herd sire (full brother to Rafiki), and results from two performance-oriented parents to include JDH Mr. Manso 323/2 and a Maternal Merit Cow.
Study the impressive genetic profile of 205 and you will see that she charts positive for BW, WW, YW, Milk, & REA EPD’s.
We think based on her superior phenotype, proven pedigree, and breed leading performance that Miss KI 205 should be a great breeding piece!
