We used him and got two heifer calves. Ours are tall, long, deep and have pretty decent feet and legs. One we're showing this year as a junior she looks decent enough i think she stands ay 57Inches

Lylehaven Lightning
We are currently milking two. They are hard topped and great legged, average in stature, udder attachment are fine but they could use a stronger median ligament. They have lots of milk but have a low fat%.
There should be some good ones because he got used in some good herds.

Re: Lylehaven Lightning
Good to hear of the low fat % he converts to a very good plus for fat in the UK but Durham x Formation ?

Re: Lylehaven Lightning
Several 1st choices being offered up in the Eastern Elite sale, or atleast one. Noticed his proof in SS, and it looks good. Still new, will wait.

Re: Lylehaven Lightning
i've heard from some guys from PEI that theyre turning out better than his proof looks. Ours was champion dairy calf at our provincal 4h show and is currently undefeated in 4h in NB. She will be at the RAWF this year.
