Foulrice Charollais

As previously mentioned we have consistently carried out performance recording since the founding of our flock, utilising the services of MLC / Signet. In more recent years we have added to this the benefits of our own in house recording which gives us an up to date picture not only of Estimated Breeding Value attributes, i.e. growth rate, muscle, and fat depths, but also the economic returns of each breeding line in the flock.

Westonvale Jubilee XBB 9016 is more than well documented for his influence, not only in the Foulrice Flock, but further afield, with to date a total in excess of 1660 progeny in 9 recorded flocks.

Our involvement with Charollais Sires has given us the opportunity to take lambs for CT scanning where four Foulrice lambs exceeded a previous best recorded gigot shape score. The best of these being a son of our up and coming stock ram Ash Charollais Filibuster with a score of 8.22.

These are all useful tools which if used wisely will ensure that Charollais stay at the forefront of the Terminal Sire Market.
