Forresters

The Forrester bloodlines we produce are bred for hardiness, solid body conformation, fertility, pass-on-growth to offspring, and impressive velvet attributes, with the correct traits to help our clients achieve their goals.

Peel Forest Estate’s Forresters are unique. Not only do these sires increase productivity (through superior growth rates, hardiness and heavy velvet), but they also possess Johne’s resilient genetics. This will reduce stock and production losses and enhance profitability. Ongoing work with processors continues to enhance our ability to produce resilient animals with premium meat quality and high-yield carcasses.
There are several key components to a Forrester sire:

- English and German bloodlines
- High 12-month growth rates for English genetics
- Deep, sturdy body conformation
- Heavy, clean velvet
- Johne’s resilience to pass onto progeny
- Quiet temperament
- Eye muscle mass – achieved through ultra-sound scanning
- Parasite resilience through Carla Testing
