Accelerated Genetics’ lineup is filled with many health trait bulls that sire healthy, profitable cows. Led by August New Release 014HO06301 ROK, the line-up is stacked with a group of health and fitness specialists.
014HO06301 ROKburst onto the proven scene as a bull who combines high components with super health traits as he is among Accelerated Genetics’ best for productive life (+5.6) and daughter pregnancy rate (+2.8). He boasts high Net Merit and is a high TPI sire. Additionally, ROK brings an increase in components especially in fat percentage (+.10%) and high Cheese Merit (+686). He tests negative for all Haplotypes and genetic recessive traits.
ROK hails from a family that has produced high health trait PACE bulls already. He is from the same maternal line as Accelerated Genetics’ lineup favorite, 014HO04916 JAKE. ROK is Accelerated Genetics’ first Jeeves son. He hails from the respected Lot-O-Rok herd and is a son of Lot-O-Rok Goldwyn Alanis-ET EX-91. She was an extreme components cow as she produced an impressive 34,650M 4.4%, 1,529F 3.7%, and 1,275P.
“Look for ROK daughters to have a strong fore udder attachment blending smooth into the body wall with a high, wide, rear udder to match,” Ben Sarbacker, Genetic Services Coordinator commented. “He will straighten the leg slightly and add some slope to the pin bones. ROK consistently transmits trouble-free cows with great mobility, longevity and positive udder traits.”
Also making their way into the proven scene as powerful health trait sires are New Releases 014HO06239 PLUTO and 014HO06263 KODY.
