The Heart of Our Breeding Program
ABOUT SURPRISE
Kobblevale Surprise, known for her tremendous prepotency and structure, is the heart of our breeding program. We’ve built our program around daughters and grand daughters of this line. They have proven themselves in the show ring, as breeding stock and on the grid.
Surprise is a large frame size cow within the Aberdeen breed which makes her ideal for both the commercial and seed stock markets.
SIRE: Kobblevale Chudleigh
DAM: Binnowee Starr
COMMERCIAL PROGENY
What’s truly remarkable about Surprise offspring is that they excel both in the show ring and on the grid. Over 5000+ commercial cattle have been produced by Surprise’s progeny.
