OCC LEGACY 839L FOUNDATION GENETICS AT EDIE CREEK ANGUS
Advertisement
OCC Legacy 839L was truly the foundation of the Edie Creek Program. He was owned by Crowfoot Cattle Co, Hillfire Angus, and B.B.A.R., they bought him and collected semen on him. Legacy was a masculine, hormonally balanced, athletic breeding machine that duplicates his own type in his sons., and leaves broody, deep, easy fleshing cows. We were fortunate to walk several sons in our pastures, as well as use him in our A.I. program. Sire Echelon is a son of the great Dixie Erica of CH 1019 cow, the OCC matron of Emblazon, Focus, Great Plains and many foundational OCC sires. Havlng lived until age 21, she set the bar for longevity, productivity, and had one of the most refined udder structures of any Angus cow. You will also find the Dixie Erica of CH 1019 cow in our Red Angus cattle. The pedigree of our OCC Easy Red 868A bull has 1019 in it 9 times. We plan on turning back to OCC Legacy in the near future for our herd.
