Thomsons Angus

02/04/2026

Shane recently had the opportunity to chat with Mark Ferguson on the Head Shepherd podcast.

Shane and Mark covered pretty much everything in cattle reproduction, including bull soundness, AI, ET, IVF, how to improve pregnancy rates in beef herds, what a pre-breeding bull soundness evaluation consists of, how to prevent pestivirus and other reproductive diseases, when IVF makes more sense than conventional ET and how to best manage your sexual athletes! 🐮

We are super proud of Shane and hope everyone enjoys listening to this incredible podcast over the Easter weekend!

2025 Bull Sale Wrap Up

A massive thank you to everyone that contributed to our 5th annual bull sale. Particularly Delta Agribusiness for assisting with its smooth operation and AuctionsPlus for the online interface. Also to Achmea for their support in providing livestock insurance.

We are overjoyed with the result and with the whole day. All of our clients were able to get the bulls they needed and for good value that is sustainable for us and sustainable for our clients.

It was great to see Zephyr, Tank and Supreme sons in high demand as the first offering of these sires across Australia.

55 out of 57 bulls sold for an average of $9,364 and an equal top of $15,000 for Lot 34, Shacorrahdalu Tank V349 (pictured) to Coolmore Australia, and Lot 8, Shacorrahdalu Predestined V93 to B & JM Hall. Volume buyer of the day was Stuart Greenhill at Duckholes Pastoral taking home 5 bulls.

We can’t wait to do it all again for our 6th annual bull sale in 2026. More Zephyrs, more Tanks and a couple exciting new sire lines on the way to look out for. Bring on 2026!

The first sons of Shacorrahdalu Tank T385 will be available for sale next Friday 22nd August.

It is hard to overstate the impact that this bull has had on our breeding program. Today, T385 is the 5th highest sire with recorded progeny on the $A index. He now has 37 calves verified to him with many more on the way.

The best part is that he is in the top 3-7% of the breed for Docility and Claw Set and has progeny performance recorded for both traits.

Lots 34, 35 and 36 are our first offering of these genetics and are some of the standouts in the yearling bulls.

Lot 3 here has flown under the radar in many respects. But on closer inspection he is a real prospect!

Great son of Zephyr with a strong Shacorrahdalu pedigree on the female side, otherwise we would have used him ourselves.

And of course he had to be the one covered in mud! 🙄

Lot 1 - Shacorrahdalu Zephyr V48 APB24V48

One of the feature lots of this year’s sale is this well-rounded son of HPCA Zephyr by a Rennylea Kodak daughter.

We have used him over our stud heifers in the Autumn and he has collected very good quality semen. He has also been accepted into cohort 16 of the Angus Sire Benchmarking Program.

He’s got all the data but he is also very stylish, he stands well with his head up nice and high and he tracks amazingly. Very good pastern and leg angle, and very good heel depth. Beautiful length of body and strong top line.

On the data side he is the complete package, super calving ease for heifers, high growth with moderate cow height and positive body condition. Great carcase weight with high IMF, and excellent docility.

This fella will be the first son of HPCA Zephyr to sell in Australia.

Check him out on AuctionsPlus: https://auctionsplus.com.au/auctions/cattle/thomsons-angus-bull-sale-2025/126753
