The bull with the head for success and the end to follow it up...
From his early calf days we have been watching Tullygarley Alibaba and were fortunate enough to be able to purchase him at Perth in Oct 2006, where he stood Junior Champion and Reserve Overall Champion.
His maternal brother, Tullygarley Uni, was also sold in Perth the previous February to Hugh Dunlop, Ayrshire for 14,000 gns.
Alibaba was selected for his tremendous length, style and muscling. He also has the best head I have ever seen in the Charolais breed and was to us a very modern animal. Since entering the herd his calves have been coming true to form, breeding long, clean and stylish cattle with that fantastic Ali head.
I have retained virtually all of his heifer calves again for breeding the first of which will be going to the bull later this year. They will make super cows, something I hadn’t counted on when buying a Charolais bull.
