A lot of interest for GenHotel Selection Sale heifers!
Ivy Red sold already the very first sale day!
On Thursday May 5th, the GenHotel Selection Sale started at 9.00 am. This online top heifers auction brought together 20 lot numbers, offered by GenHotel members, and made it to an exclusive offer. It was already at the start of the auction that lot 7 was sold for the starting price.
RH Altitude Ivy Red
A Northern Irish breeder pressed the bid button at the start of the auction with which the direct Farnear Altitude-Red daughter out of Pamprd-Acres Ab Ivy Red EX-94 changed hands for the starting price of € 7,500. Lot 7 Ivy Red, purchased as an embryo by (new GenHotel member) Roubos Holsteins, was sold with a total contract value of € 3,200.
€ 4.500 for Red Carrier Barbie
The red carrier Golden-Oaks Master daughter Holbra Black Beauty RDC (lot 18) threw high eyes too. With no less than 9 generations of excellent dams in a row, Beauty RDC definitely has the potential to bring show success for her future owners. Holbra Holsteins sold this beautiful 1-yr-old heifer to a group of Dutch breeders, so hopefully we will see this "Black Beauty" in the show ring soon!
High Foreman
One of the sale favorites was the 161 gRZG & 2819 gTPI scoring Foreman Fabi (lot 4), from the Behrens family in Germany. Interest arose in the days before, which resulted in a total contract value of € 9,750. The high-scoring Fabi, from the proven Regancrest-PR Barbie EX-92 family, was auctioned for a prize of € 12,000.
'Double investment'
From the proven family of Golden-Oaks Mark Prudence EX-95 (lot 11) HM Priska P RDC with 153 gRZG was offered. This interesting heifer calf, consigned by Henk Moonen, was offerd with a contract value of € 6,300. She was sold for € 5,000. To the same, new owner also went the polled & red SIE 3STAR Frouke P Red (BB), bred by Siepermann and GenHotel. She was auctioned for a nice amount of € 4,000. These two polled calves find their new home with a Dutch dairy farmer.
