Wellington Lodge, Tailem Bend, South Australia are offering 40 unjoined Heifers from the Team Te Mania progeny test program for private sale.
The herd has been run on pure Te Mania Angus bloodlines since joining Team Te Mania as a Foundation member in 1995. Wellington Lodge females are highly sought after for building high quality breeding herds, and the steers are purchased by feedlots, with most going straight to Rangers Valley, for their structure, their growth, yield and marbling.
These 40 heifers offered for sale are surplus heifers, ready for joining. They are ACR registered, commercial heifers, with EBVs that stand strong when compared with all recorded Angus cattle (seedstock and commercial). Note – Marbling (IMF) EBV of +3.2 is in the top 10% of recorded Angus cattle.
