DALBORA GENETICS was first established in January 2008 following a decision by Dalrae Holsteins and Brookbora Jerseys to join forces and create a multi breed partnership. Located at Tennyson in Northern Victoria, holsteins make their home at Dalrae Holsteins owned by Daryl, Maria, Hayden & Tori Collins, while jersey progeny reside with the herd of Brookbora Jerseys owned by Robert, Sandra, Michelle & Daniel Bacon.
KAARMONA FLOWERPOWER BABE 5
The first of the Babe Family was purchased by Dalbora Genetics at the Northern Lights Sale in April 2008, bringing home Meldan Brookbi Babe. This branch of the Babe family is extremely consistant with production indices well above herd average across every generation along with great type. Brookbi Babe calved in November 2008 with a Valerian heifer.
In August 2008 further members of the Babe family were purchased. Dam, Kaarmona Flowerpower Babe 5, full sister Meldan Brookbi Babe 2, and maternal sisters Meldan Valerian Babe & Meldan Impuls Babe made the move to Tennyson. Meldan Brookbi Babe 2 calved in February with a Blackstone heifer.
Flowerpower Babe's two natural calves have both entered progeny testing with Genetics Australia. Paperboy, by Manhattan, is due for a proof in 2010 and Bakari, by Tailboard will be progeny tested in 2009 and will receive his proof in 2013. She has been bred to Gannon to calve in Spring 2009. Classified 86 points @ 2 years, Flowerpower Babe 5 will be reclassified upon calving.
Our aim
is to develop families with the whole package, including
type, production and index to make positive impacts on the future of the
dairy industry.
