Sale
- High Rocky-Mountain average
Mascalese, the Italian Nr.1 bull, has become very popular worldwide in a short period of time. Also in the western part of Canada, where a first choice Mascalese heifer calf out of Ms Chassity Cash VG-87 attracted a great top price of C$80,000. Cash, owned by Morsan Farms, is the sought-after Goldwyn daughter of Regancrest Chassity, who was elected HI’s “Global Cow of the Year” in 2011. That great bid was realized at the 2012 edition of the RockyMountain Sale, where 118 lots reached an outstanding average of C$9776. Another top price was paid for Ladinodale Aretha-Red, a red and polled Destry daughter with high genomics. For C$66,000 she went to RockyMountain Holsteins. And then there was the little Shamrock calf with 3157 gLPI from Fleury-Gen Baxter Lisa, that went to Butler, Elite Dairy, Johnson & Widholm for C$50,000. Also the promising Goldwyn daughter and show heifer Hoese Goldwyn Beauty attracted lots of interest. It was Morsan who finally bought her for C$35,500.

A daughter of Scientific Destry topped the Barrel Creek Holsteins Dispersal, held June 26th in Intercourse, PA. Barrel-Creek D Olley-Red-ET sold for $3100 to Walter Brooks of Springville, PA. Olley was fresh last October and due again this coming October to KHW Elm-Park Acme. Her dam is an 85-point Advent with over 22,000M from the famed Beaujolais-Red family of Pinehurst. The second dam is Pinehurst Dark Elegance *RC herself, scored 2E-94 with a lifetime production of 166,944M 3.9 6564F 3.1 5238P, and a 7th generation EX over 1100 of fat! The second high seller of the day at $3000 was Barrel-Creek Talent Casey, a VG-85 Talent daughter due in January to Sanchez. The dam was an unscored Goldwyn lost after 1st calving, but behind her was the well-known family from Glen-Valley Holsteins including Glen-Valley Win Caprice-ET (3E-93 GMD-DOM) and Blackstar Classy (2E-92 GMD-DOM) who made over 200,000 of lifetime milk. Promise Haven Farm of Ulster, PA, was the successful buyer. One hundred fifteen lots averaged $1675 for the Samuel & Lydia King family of Atglen. The sale was co-managed by Stonehurst Farm and The Cattle Exchange. (source:holsteinworld.com) - Top-selling French Detox
