VIRS48R DOB 1/17/05 BW 109, WW 761; YW 1228; 41cm scrotum at one year. Horned Full Fleckvieh Fullblood bull. The sire is an historic Fleckvieh bull, SAF73H, who was born in 1976. I unsuccessfully sought to acquire this semen for many years; only a drop remains. It was lucky for YCR when Virginia Ranch produced this litter sired by him out of Anchor T Barbi. Rojo is the pick of the litter. As you will see from the picture below, 73H is darker than his sire, Solway Adonis, and is almost solid colored. 73H was a non-diluter, never producing a gray calf when bred to Angus cows.

Rojo fits right into our solid colored breeding program and our Serial Breeding Program^© all of which is more fully described in the Our Program section of this website. The excellent GeneStar test results enhance his value.

Sire		Dam

3 bull calves in the litter, Rockford, Rojo and Redford
