Orange Show 2017

Orange Show was held on the 14th and 15th of May, and was again another successful outing for the team. It was also somewhat sad, as it was little Monza's last time with us before he headed off to his new home!

As we were the only Lowlines there, we were judged the other small breed cattle. Everyone was well behaved, and came home with wonderful results! It is always so rewarding as small, hobby breeders to be told that your cattle are not only high quality, but are also competitive against large breeds.

Wrap up of results:

  • Shadow Park Monza: Reserve Champion Junior Bull
  • Shadow Park Ferrari: Reserve Champion Senior Female
  • Shadow Park Zoom Zoom: Champion Senior Female
  • Shadow Park Magnolia: Champion Junior Female, Grand Champion Female

The judge was especially complimentary of 9 month old Magnolia, who beat our previous star performer Zoom Zoom for Grand Champion Female! Magnolia then went up against a Brahman cow and calf, Angus cow and calf, Shorthorn heifer and Murrary Grey cow and calf for Interbreed Female. The Shorthorn heifer was crowned champion, but the judges were very impressed with Magnolia, and said they would be excited to see her return in the future as a Senior.

Once again a massive thanks to Logan Andrews for coming along and giving us a hand - espeically for her superb parading efforts with Magnolia!

Orange is our last show for a few months, and with both heifers now in calf, and Monza sold, we will be presenting a whole new team for Molong Show in September! In the meantime, we only have one bull calf still available for sale from last year's drop. If you are interested in acquiring a Shadow Park Lowline please get in contact before you miss out!
