It’s not often a bull of this calibre is offered up for sale, and for him to be born a twin makes it all the more impressive!

A large, strongly-built bull that’s not had it easy, born a twin and reared up in Ayrshire off grass alone, already working his first cows at the Sykes’ farm last summer as well. His dam works just as hard, being about to calve down her 6th calf at only 6 years of age, she’s one of the best and most productive cows at Kileekie farm. This is a calm and steady bull with a great temperament!
