SOME BULLS CARRY MORE THAN A PEDIGREE. THEY CARRY A STORY.
Meet Ferdinand | HOT22-221 | Lot 58.
His story takes us all the way back to 2007, to three full sisters - Zelma, Frieda and Tanya - born from embryos that formed part of the genetics we started our stud with.
Almost 20 years later, those genetics come together again in Ferdinand, who is linebred back to all three sisters.
Linebreeding = prepotency.
Generation after generation of genetics we believe in.
And Ferdinand himself?
Bull from nose to toes.
At 792 kg, with masculinity, capacity, presence and a set of figures to back him up, he is exactly the kind of bull we would want to use in our own stud.
Ferdinand won the 2026 Make My Bull Famous competition and will feature on the front cover of the October Veeplaas magazine.
But hereβs the best partβ¦
Ferdinand sells on 3 September.
Which means when that October issue comes out, the bull on the front cover could already be YOUR new herd sire.
The cover made him famous.
His genetics made him Ferdinand.
BORN FOR MORE.
