A genuine breed treasure and the epitome of productivity with more than 110 progeny on record, Blackbird T073 recently passed away at 14.5 years of age. We purchased T073 as an aged cow from the historic Tehama herd where she had placed 43 daughters in their program including the dam of the popular Select Sires roster member, Tahoe B767. Long-spined, ultra-feminine with a picture perfect udder and ideal feet, T073 posts a progeny record of 8 WR 105; 7 YR 103; 89 IMF 99 and 89 RE 100. A genuine type-changing sire, Atlantis has surged in popularity thus far in 2022, based on his deep-sided and easy-fleshing progeny with abundant muscle, superb structure and stunning good looks. With his BW accuracy now at .90, Atlantis has proven to be heifer safe coupled with progeny WW and YW ratios of 100, a HP EPD in the top 1%, Claw and $M in the top 2% balanced with a moderated MH in the best 5% of the breed.
