His ability to be a value creator is clear when looking at his health and fertility indexes. He will give you easy calving (112) and excellent daughter fertility.

His natural health profile is supported by strong Udder health (109) and Hoof health (111). Longevity is at a fantastic high level with index 126, promising you long-living, hard-working, healthy cows.

You will get cows with a lot of strength in body, feet and legs and well-attached udders.

VH Nader will ensure you:

• A high lifetime production and daily profit per cow
• Natural health and excellent daughter fertility
• Cows with good strength

His dam is a VH Ramis (Racer) daughter. In 0.8 years, she has produced 12,600 kg milk with 4.77 in fat % and 3.66 in protein %. She's classified VG87 with 88 in udder.

Her dam is a Fageno cow from the herd of Kim Fagerlin in Tjele, Denmark. She's still producing and so far, in 4 years, she has given an average yearly production of 13,800 kg milk with 4.64% fat and 3.50% protein and is classified VG87.

She's also the dam of VH Don Red (VH Dent RC) with NTM +29. Further back in the pedigree, you'll find a D Obo daughter with a lifetime production of 97,000 kg milk.

VH Nader is bred at the herd of Vagn Kristensen in Stoholm J, Denmark.

VR Fuzzy P

gNTM +35 genomic

VR Fanof P x VR Lazer x R Harvard

 

If you want to boost fertility, udder conformation and the amount of solids in the milk, VR Fuzzy P is just the bull for your herd. As a bonus, VR Fuzzy P is polled so half of his offspring will be born without horns.  

VR Fuzzy P has impressive indexes for Fat% (135) and Protein% (149) combined with good Fertility (112) and Udder health (111).

On top of that, you'll get daughters that have:

• A low use of feed
• A good survival as heifers
• Long-lasting cows

VR Fuzzy P's daughters will be medium-sized with great feet and legs together with supreme Udders (121) with great fore udder attachment, udder depth, udder ligament and front teats placement.

As the icing on the cake, VR Fuzzy gives easy calvings, so a super bull to use on your heifers.   

The sire VR Fanof P is still one of the best polled red genomic bulls in the world with NTM +24. VikingGenetics has bought six bulls sired by him and they are all polled. One of them is homozygotic polled.

The cow family behind VR Fuzzy P is polled and characterised by high percentages in the milk — the dam with 4.29% protein and 5.46% fat and granddam with 4.16% protein and 5.06% fat.

The dam has been used for embryo flushing. She has given VikingGenetics breeding programme many great bulls: VR Azer, VR Vigil P, VR Facit P and VR Fuzzy P, as well as several heifers which have flushing contracts with VikingEmbryo programme.

The next generation is on its way and her grandson VR Vilho P has just started in semen production.  

The breeder is Bent Skovgård, Denmark.

VR Fuzzy P has X-Vik sexed semen available.
