Mendes PP is a very complete, well-built polled bull. He is homozygous polled and carries both A2A2 beta-casein and BB kappa-casein. Bred in Germany, Mendes PP descends from a strong cow family. This Holstein line started in the 1970s with a C.O. Rex daughter. Several generations later, top bulls for longevity and persistence like Gibor and Apoll P appear in the pedigree. Through Born P daughter Dagmar (classified VG 88, over 60,000 kg with 4.72% fat and 3.73% protein), we reach the Solitair dam of Mendes. This productive Dora (VG 87) averaged 4.94% fat and 3.76% protein! Mendes Red PP is a well-developed bull with strong width and good legs.
