“We are very pleased with the type of cattle we are producing. They are productive, feminine females that are producing steers that are performing well both for us on grass and in feedlots. “
“The Yamburgan bulls are producing good progeny in the harsh buffel country and yet they retain a softness and do-ability with tremendous muscle – they are just getting better and better every year.”
“Our breeding program has now become a closed Yamburgan blood herd. John is a cattleman first and he breeds seedstock directly suitable for our commercial production requirements.”
“Yamburgan cattle are cattle that com- bine performance and docility and are sought after by both lot feeders and grass finishers who consistently comment on the high percentage of the cattle that meet the highest specifications.”
“We have used well over a dozen Yamburgan bulls in the last 10 years and have been very happy with the growth and fertility of the progeny.”
“Having purchased our first Yamburgan bull 18 years ago we have continually seen an improvement in the females retained and the yeild in our steers.”
“We purchased our first Yamburgan bull in 1996 for our Qld property and have been buying ever since. Low cost of production is essential for profitable cattle production, so we must have easy care, fertile females in our herd.”
“Since buying Yamburgan bulls we have found them to always have a good a temperament and easy to handle, their steer progeny performing well above average in feedback from the feedlot where we sell them (Caroona). The females are the type of cattle we are looking for, feminine and fertile with good pregnancy testing results of 90% or better.”
“The Yamburgan bulls have worked well for us, they have put a lot of length and weight into our cattle. All our steers (800 per year) go to Swift’s Beef City at Toowoomba and they are very happy with our cattle.”
“The bulls we have purchased from Yamburgan have been a key part of our breeding program for a number of years and have helped increase the weight for age in our cattle without compromising fertility.”
“The Yamburgan bulls have adapted well to our country and come in from the cows in good condition with excellent pregnancy rates. They have added fat and marbling to our herd whislt producing great mothers.”
“The Yamburgan bulls have worked well in our lighter Pilliga Country. We have been using Yamburgan genetics since 1973.”
“I’ve been extremely happy with the overall performance of the Yamburgan bulls, the calves at weaning have terrific weight for age.”
“Looking at my rising ten month old calves by Yamburgan Lockyer 18th I couldn’t be happier. The male’s have great length with good muscle expression and do-ability. The females are also long and beautifully soft. I have enjoyed the step up to first grade with this bull, he will bring my cows along in leaps and bounds. John and Liz have been very forthcoming in helping a new client. “
“It always surprises me the weight the Yamburgan cattle carry, not only the sale bulls but the commercial cattle that go through the yards.”
“Yamburgan Mittiebah 17th, at 18 months, was joined to 70 head of 2nd calving females with a 92.5% PTIC rate and the shorthorn calves have come through the drought better than the purebred Angus and Murray Grey cross calves.”
“We were impressed by his complete balance, his overall structural soundness, his muscularity and breed characteristics. He will be going directly into an AI centre where we will collect semen for extensive use in the Yugilbar herd this season.” Rob said after the purchase of Sahara (P) for $80,000.
The Yamburgan cattle have served us well for the last 65 years”.
