Talbalba Hoffman R131 (PP)

Sold for for $91,000 at our 2022 Annual Sale

Steve, Debbie, Kate, Meg and Brooke Reid own and operate the Talbalba Hereford Stud on undulating Brigalow, Belah country between Millmerran and Inglewood, Queensland

We aim to produce 70 Industry relevant Hereford sires with superior carcase traits for our annual on property sale in August.

We source natural sires Australia wide and use modern breeding technologies (AI and ET) to access superior genetics  from the USA and NZ as well as Australia to  produce moderately framed, heavily muscled Herefords with clean coats and strong eyes. Our primary goal is to  produce good lines of commercial bulls for both pure Hereford and Cross breeding operations. We collect growth, carcase and fertility data analysed by Breedplan and enhanced by Genomics to aid balanced selection criteria of both males and females. Fertility is a priority as it is the most important profit driver in any herd, heifers are expected to calve at 2 year old.
