00:30The bull took my eye. He's got a great set of data right across from good calving right
00:58through to his four, six hundred day. One thing that did attract me to the bull was his mature
01:06cow weight. He has a good spread of fats too, all positive fats. It's something that we really
01:12haven't put a lot of time into in the past, but I think going forward it's something we're going
01:19to have to be more conscious of for Alistair. Now he's heading to far north Queensland.
01:25Yeah, he'll go up to Burley station at Richmond and go into the breeding program that Alistair
01:31and Joanne McClymon have got there. It's been a very successful program for Alistair and Joanne
01:40and we hope to be able to continue to find the right animals for them to take forward. They
01:49do it pretty tough down here in these winters and they are going up into some pretty hot
01:55conditions, but they do adapt well. Alistair and Joanne have been using them now for about 10 years
02:02and Alistair likes the fact that they can handle the harsher conditions.
