Notes:Sired by Papa Equator, this cow is following in the foot steps of her mother, Belvin Lady Blossom 23'84, and her grandmother, Blackface Blossom 104J, the matriarch of our whole Lady Blossom cow family. Lady Blossom 47'97 already has over $125,000 in sales with progeny and embryos. She is a prolific producer, with progeny like herdsires Belvin Lincoln, Belvin Mercedes, and Belvin Panther, as well as daughters 22'02, 28'02, 22'04, and 73'00, the mother of Belvin Nighthawk. Her progeny have left their mark across the country as show winners and sale toppers, and she continues to be the cornerstone of our herd.

Notes: Early indications seem to show that this impressive young female is following the same path as her mother, Lady Blossom 47'97. Sired by OGL Battlecry, Lady Blossom 22'02 is a flush mate to Belvin Mercedes and Lady Blossom 28'02.

Lady Blossom 22'02 is owned by Quinn Hamilton, and has been shown successfully at many junior shows. In 2004 as a two year old she was Champion Female at the National Junior Angus "Showdown" in Salmon Arm, BC, and Champion Female at the Provincial Junior Angus Show in Olds , AB. She also was the Interbreed Supreme Champion Female in the Junior Futurity Show at Farmfair. Her first calf, Belvin Patriarch 5'04, sold for $16,000 in the 2004 Black Magic Sale to Northern Black Angus, Smithers, BC, and Owen O'Neill, Limerick , Ireland . Lady Blossom 22'02 is the dam of Belvin Raider 3'05, a Freedom bull calf we are selling in the 2005 Masterpiece sale. Embryos from that flush (22'02 x Freedom) have also sold to Sweden , Wales and England . We have been flushing 22'02 the past year to bulls like Glen Islay Blue Label, Glen Islay Battlecry, and Sitz Tradition. 22'02 is one of the most exciting females in our program.

Notes: Another daughter of Lady Blossom 47'97, from the same flush as Mercedes and Lady Blossom 22'02. We sold Lady Blossom 28'02 in the 2003 Black Magic Sale, where she sold for $30,000 to Remitall Cattle Co. Olds, AB, and Grandview Angus, making her the high selling Black Angus Female in Canada in 2003. She has gone on to work well for the Latimers. In 2004 she won Champion Female at the Calgary Stampede, and Reserve Champion Female at the Olds Fair and Canadian Western Agribition. In 2005 she was Champion Female at the Olds Fair.

Notes: Lady Blossom 31'96 is a daughter of the legendary Leachman Right Time. Her mother is Belvin Lady Blossom 40'93, a daughter of SAF Batman. Lady Blossom 40'93 is also the mother of Belvin Graphite 15'97, a bull that Harold Reich used very successfully in his program. Belvin Lady Blossom 9'04, our 2005 Masterpiece heifer, is a daughter of Lady Blossom 31'96. We have three other daughters of 31'96 in our herd. Her heifer calf born in 2005 is at the very top of her age group, and another daughter, Lady Blossom 14'01 is one of the best producing females in her age group. Lady Blossom 31'96 is a very broody, fertile female, who entered our embryo transplant program this year, and she was flushed successfully to Belvin Patriarch. Every calf she has ever had has been within a one-month window, and this year she is due to calve in February once again, even after being flushed.

Notes: Belvin Georgina 52'95 is a daughter of Belvin Boardwalk, the 1993 Sweepstakes Reserve Champion Bull and 1995 Calgary Bull Sale Champion and High Seller, going to Stacy Stauffer for $10,000. Georgina 52'95 is a daughter of Belvin Georgina 30'91, who was sired by Belvin Fame, a maternal brother to Belvin Lady Blossom 47'97. Georgina 52'95 was Reserve Champion Female as a yearling heifer at Farmfair in 1996.

She is the mother of herdsires like Belvin Kingpin, the 2002 Farmfair Supreme Champion Bull, and Belvin Jaguar, and many other bulls working in purebred herds across Canada . She has many top producing daughters in our herd. Some of her daughters include Belvin Georgina 12'00, who sold in the 2000 Black Magic Sale to Fred Taylor for $9500, and Belvin Georgina 96'98, the mother of Belvin Georgina 81'03.

Notes: Georgina 81'03 is one of the most exciting young females in our program. Sired by Belvin Lincoln, and out of Belvin Georgina 96'98, her grandams are the two most influential females we currently have in our herd, Lady Blossom 47'97 and Georgina 52'95. Georgina 81'03 was Intermediate Champion Yearling Heifer at Farmfair in 2004. In 2005 she was Open Champion Female at both the Canadian National Junior Angus "Showdown" in Brandon , MB. and the Alberta Junior Angus Show in Olds , AB.

Her first calf Belvin Rebel 33'05, sired by FAR Krugerrand 410H, was himself Champion Open Bull at the National Junior Angus "Showdown", and Reserve Champion Bull at the IPE in Armstrong, and will be a future herdsire in our program. Georgina 81'03 is a female who should leave her mark in our embryo program in the not too distant future.
