FRANKLYN is a result of the success achieved by Festive. FRANKLYN is a half-brother of the amazing Festive, whose performance in both England and Ireland is above and beyond expectations.
Roydmoore FRANKLYN T496 was also bred by Gina Barraclough. She works closely with other breeders such as the family behind the Netherton pedigree in Scotland. The cow family that produced Festive N789 was bred on this farm. Festive N789's dam is Netherton Fleur 650. She was sired by the renowned bull Netherton Mr. Brazilian, while her dam was produced by The Moss Mr. Eshton D409. These are pedigrees known for their good maternal ease of calving. The calves grow into good, heavily built cattle.
The origins of FRANKLYN's sire can also be traced to the McLaren family farm in Scotland. The bull was tested in England and has achieved very good results with the growth figures standing out as particularly impressive. Federation is a descendent of the famous Australian bull Ardrossan Admiral.
We have very high hopes for FRANKLYN. He was born lightweight and is developing extremely well. We see FRANKLYN as a welcome addition to our portfolio. Like his half-brother Festive, he is bound to make many farmers very happy!
