‘Quality breeds quality’

Challambi Charolais owner and founder, Nigel Spink, prides himself on his passion for stud farming with a keen sense, and knowledge, of cattle genetics and breeding.

This is a testament to the Spink family legacy and motto, “quality breeds quality” of Challambi Charolais cattle.

This extraordinary quality of Charolais cattle will be on offer at the Rockhampton All Breeds Sale in February, with three two-year-old polled bulls suitable to work immediately.

The bulls sired by the $C2450000 SCX Jehu.

“2025 brings new and exciting opportunities for our clients to purchase Challambi Charolais bulls that have been carefully selected to target the buyer’s needs,“ Nigel said.

“I know our lots will have a positive impact in any herd.“

Lot 312, Unique, is a strong quality Charolais bull that offers great figures, is homozygous polled and comes from a great cow family in the Chiffon line.

All Challambi Charolais cattle are birthweight 200d, 400d, fat and EMA recorded with breedplan.

“As all full figures are available, this aids in the selection process,“ Nigel said.

Challambi will also offer its best-of-the-best Charolais females at the Charnelle Female and Genetic Sale held on Saturday, 1 March in Toowoomba.

These females are 100 per cent polled and include genetics from around the world.

As these will be the only Challambi females offered at a sale for 2025, Nigel encourages breeders to have a good look at their statistics.

These heifers are all PTIC to calve in the spring 2025.

Challambi Charolais is also having an on-property sale on 12 April which includes dark red, red and white bulls, again with excellent genetics.

Nigel welcomes visits to his property in the foothills of Mount Kosciusko Mountain Range.
