     CHICAGO (Champion x Durham VG-87 x Bellwood EX-91 x Leadman Mae EX-95).This bull coming from the famous Whittier-Farms Leadman Mae (EX-95) family increases the number of daughters (92 daughters in 64 herds). He provides an incredible balance of high milk production (+767 kg) and very high type (+3.14). CHICAGO transmits yield and snugly attached udders with incredible texture. A great combination of yield milk, type and deep cow family.

“The best term to describe the Chicago daughters is “dairy strength”.  There are few bulls that sire this combination of angularity and dairy character.  Chicago does this consistently well.  Many dairy producers with large herds desire this trait in their cattle because it adds to the longevity of their cattle in a very competitive environment.  They have the desire to compete and withstand the stress of overcrowding” (by Gary Fassett-Nov 2008, Chicago Daughters Tour Report).

 

     Jeffrey CHAMONIX (Champion x Convincer Tranquil EX-91 x Formation Tate EX-93 x Luke Tripoli EX-93) is the newest member of this elite group.
