We are delighted to announce two exciting new semen sires available for sale. Semen from both bulls will be available through ourselves and is priced at €20 per straw plus royalty on pedigree calves. Both bulls come from easy calving strains coupled with powerful cow families and sire stacks behind them. We are excited to add these two bulls to our sire selection and can’t wait to see that they can produce.

CLONAGH LEGAL EAGLE
Legal Eagle was our stand out bull from last years spring line up and with his back pedigree it was an easy decision to withdraw him for sale for our own use. He is a heifers calf by Banwy T-Rex, sire and grandsire of champions and record breaking males and females and the most influential sire ever to have been used here. Noted for his easy calving abilities and maternal traits.
His half sister to Legal Eagle, Clonagh Miss Jessie Murphy was recently sold at our Festive Females ’21 Online Sale for €4,800 to the Glenturk herd, Scotland.
Dam Jessie Girl is a former National calf champion who has developed in to a powerful cow. Jessie is by Kilbride Farm Dragoon out of a Curaheen Sittingbull daughter, Knockane Wanda. Siblings include Clonagh Hercules DD, Reserve National Feb bull calf champion sold to a Turkish AI centre and Clonagh Krystal Wanda, reserve champion ISCS society sale.
Legal Eagle will be used in our upcoming flushing programme for Cloneygowan Temptress Posh, we can’t wait to see what this produces with her already having excelled breeding to both T-Rex and Dragoon! He will also be used on heifers not to directly related to T-Rex and Dragoon.
