Strong draft of bulls

Blackall will host the third annual Carabar Angus Bull Sale on Tuesday 28 October, when stud principal Darren Hegarty offers a strong draft of bulls tailored to western clients.

A total of 40 bulls will go under the hammer at the Blackall Saleyards, including 35 Angus and five composite bulls.

Mr Hegarty said the draft represented the top end of their age group and had been prepared with commercial beef producers in mind.

“Our focus is on breeding and producing Angus MSA-grade cattle with superior structural soundness, eye muscle, intramuscular fat, growth potential and temperament,” Mr Hegarty said.

“I believe it’s the durability and longevity of Carabar bulls that really stands out to our clients and why we have a long standing relationship with our clientele“.

Carabar Angus has long specialised in high-quality Angus genetics, selecting only the finest bulls and females for its program to ensure they suit Queensland conditions, our females are run on my other property which is between Bollon, St George and Mitchell on a mulga block, while meeting MSA standards.

The sale has built a reputation for offering high quality sires with longevity, backed by a comprehensive animal health and testing program.

All bulls have received 7-in-1, 3 Day, Pestiguard, Vibrovax, Long Range, and 3 Germ Blood vaccinations, and have tested negative for Pestivirus. Each has also been semen and morphology tested.

Inspections at Blackall Saleyards will be available from Friday 24 October, while appointments can also be arranged at Carabar, Meandarra. Videos and photos of every bull are available online via AuctionsPlus, www.carabarangus.com and the Carabar Angus Facebook page.

For further information or to book an inspection, contact Mr Hegarty on 0428 748 542 or (07) 4665 6164.
