Mandella Does It Again

Parkhead Jody 3 VG 86

The reputation of HUNNINGTON MANDELLA (McCornick Nelson/Pylon Easled EX 95 LP100) received another boost at the recent Parkhead Ayrshire Dispersal sale when the second calver Parkhead Jody 3 VG 86 sold for the third top price of the day 4400 gns to Richard Danforth, Tadcaster West Yorkshire. This much admired young cow has just completed a first lactation of 8472 kgs @ 4.40% bf and 3.41% p in 282 days and was placed 5th Junior Cow in milk at Agriscot.
        
Mandella's December proof figures have firmed significantly with 81 daughters milking in 41 herds giving figures of;
  PLI £40
+243 Kgs Milk
+0.04% bf
-0.08% P
  SCC -8
+1.1 Feet and legs
+2.3 Fore udder attachment
+0.4 type
All with 93% Reliability.
 
2011 has seen a surge in demand for Mandella semen from both home and abroad, which is understandable following the success of his initial proof daughters in the showring, at sales and in their own herds.
