Adelgaard Grandprix

Adelgaard Grandprix (Gates x Irwin x Hirse) is a Danish-bred Jersey bull whose pedigree includes a small dash of American Jersey genes (via his dam's sire Irwin). His lineage boasts high components, good conformation and great durability (via a maternal line that excelled in durability traits). Several bulls with this pedigree have already found their way to AI organisations.

Gates, the sire of Grandprix, has an unbeatable ability to pass on great component percentages and scores well for durability, somatic cell count and fertility. His progeny also have faultless conformation and the Danish scores for inheritance show that he excels in quality udders. An aAa code of 156 and BB for kappa casein are other interesting traits offered by Gates.

The amazing durability of Grandprix’ maternal line has already been mentioned. Grandprix’s great great grandam completed five lactations, his great granddam nine and his granddam eight. His dam Sadie has now had three lactations and, like the previous three generations, produces milk with more than 6% fat and more than 4% protein. In the form of Collin, a bull previously used by K.I. SAMEN, his dam Sadie has a half-brother who can pass on the genetic predisposition of Grandprix's maternal line.
