When putting this sale together we knew we had to offer the ones that hurt to let go. 103/6 is one of those as she is proven and from the heart of our donor herd. This female combines our foundation genetics along with the signature Santa Elena look, fertility, maternal ability and gentle disposition. Her sire, JDH Sir Julio Manso 835/3, is a (+)Remington son Bob Hudgins sold to Julio Rebolledo of Colombia, who sired numerous champions. 103/6’s dam was VL Elena 14/4 a dark cherry red donor who helped set the foundation in our donor program during the 90’s, producing two calves sold internationally, and 3 females that we retained along with one which was sold that became a consistent division winner. 14/4 was a high egg producer producing an average of 8 to 10 quality eggs per flush.
