Welcome
Welcome to our third annual “Diamonds Are Forever” bull and female sale.
We are very excited to again this year be hosting our sale on farm at Macorna. We feel having our sale on farm allows us to showcase our cattle the best way possible to their potential new buyers. We have again continued to grow our speckle park program throughout 2022 and are proud to present such a large but quality draft of cattle for your competition.
As many of our repeat clients would know our story, we have started from small beginnings. Like most we started with a few bulls and a handful of females but with the extensive use of ET we have now grown our program to be one of the largest in the country. After many extensive trips to Canada we now feel we have a solid base of Donor cows not only here in Aus in our own paddocks, but also abroad in our partners’ fields in Canada. Our list of Canadian donors continues to grow as we select for fertile cows who can live in and produce progeny to live in all climatic extremes. We would like to sincerely thank all of our partners for their continued support and hard work. Our program wouldn’t be what it is today without all of your effort.
2022 wasn’t without its challenges and rewards and 2023 has started in a similar fashion. Last year just before our sale we welcomed the 4th generation Van der Drift to our family farm. Dustin made an early appearance last year born 7 weeks before his due date but hasn’t looked back. It has been incredibly special to share multiple events with all 4 generations throughout the year and also on farm talking cows in the paddock and at home. It wont be long and we are sure Dustin will be able to tell you who everyone is.
2022 also saw the introduction of our “Northern Impact Sale”, a second annual sale for BDS. The risk of sending a team of bulls to central Queensland was both daunting but also very rewarding. It was great to see so much support for not only the Speckle Park breed but for our bulls who had in their travels covered over 2000km to get to the sale. Whist we had bulls from our “Diamonds are Forever” sale last year go to Queensland, it was great to talk to fellow graziers on their home turf and learn about what bulls were going to best suit their needs both climatically and phenotypically.
2022 also saw yet another flood for us here at BDS. With multiple creeks flooding all at once around us, it certainly felt like we lost the month of October just checking flood water, watching it destroy crops and paddocks of saved feed. Luckily our floods are slow moving so we didn’t lose any stock but the impact on the stock was clearly noticeable. With this in mind, we are so impressed with how the Speckles can turn it around so quickly and have responded well and are now ready for the sale.
2023 saw yet another challenging summer with a cold, slow and dry start to summer. With minimal growth of our summer crops we have had one of our largest years feeding hay and silage to keep the cattle growing.
In 2023 so far, we have had our biggest achievement to date in the show circuit. The 2023 Sydney Royal Speckle Park Feature Show was truly a spectacle and we were incredibly proud to be a part of it. We had our largest ever show team of 22 head. It had its challenges but it was great to see the success within our team. We were lucky enough to be awarded multiple Champion and Reserve Champion ribbons along with the Most Successful Beef Exhibitor of the Show. Our family favourite BD 5E Rehersal Dinner R888 was crowned Grand Champion Female of the show as well as being placed TOP 5 in the interbreed. It was also great to see other progeny of Black Diamond stock at the show, The Grand Champion Speckle Park steer on the hoof was the progeny of BD 60A Popcorn P203. Congratulations again to the Sowden Family on their terrific steer.
As you can see this years sale preparations have been full of many challenges but we are extremely excited to be able to offer this cohort of cattle for your competition. We truly believe with each year our sale line up gets better and believe this is the strongest line up of bulls and females we have offered to date. Our embryo programs have allowed us to access some of the more outcross genetics to the Australian herd, allowing our buyers to get ahead of the pack using these outcross genetics. Some of the cattle in this years sale are the first offering of stock by our own Canadian cows and bulls so make the most of this opportunity.
We look forward to you joining us in person on the 13th of May on farm at 184 Hayden Lane, Macorna, Vic to inspect the cattle and talk all things Speckle Parks.
With Thanks
Van der Drift Family

GUARANTEE
Black Diamond Speckle Parks have taken the utmost care to prepare these cattle for the sale.
All Bulls are sold as passing a crush side semen test. If a bull is proven to be infertile or unable to complete natural service within 6 months of the sale date, the vendor will either provide a suitable replacement or a sale credit equal to the purchase price less salvage value, to be used within 12 months of the sale date.
Females sold are guaranteed breeders for 6 months from day of sale. Females are either sold as PTIC or guaranteed to fall pregnant provided they have not undertaken any Embryo Transfer work. A confirmed pregnancy does not guarantee a live and healthy calf.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to provide a certificate to verify infertility from a registered veterinarian within 6 months of the day of sale. The certificate must state that the infertility was not the result of an illness, injury or misadventure. The guarantee only covers the purchase price of the animal, without interest, costs and damages.
Please remember these are animals and come with an element of risk. Please consider insuring your purchases as these cattle are an extremely valuable part of your business. Formal possession and responsibility pass to the buyer at the fall of the hammer.
INSURANCE
We encourage all successful purchasers to insure their purchase. Buying a Speckle Park is an investment, and they are a valuable part of your enterprise. Please feel free to ask the Nutrien team for any assistance.
RAW DATA & BREEDPLAN
All cattle in the sale have had raw data submitted to breed plan to help increase the accuracy of their individual EBV’s. All sale cattle were scanned by Roger Evans of Bovine Scanning Services Pty Ltd, (accreditation number: 1018) on the 2nd of February 2023. This was several months later than normal given the weather conditions, but every attempt was made to keep the cattle in as larger groups as possible to keep the data as relevant as possible.
Please see the Breedplan Percentiles Table below to help compare individual animals within the sale.
DISCLAIMER
While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of all material published in this sale catalogue, no responsibility will be assumed by Black Diamond Speckle Park, the selling agents nor its representative(s) for errors and/or omissions.
DNA TESTING
All registered cattle in the sale have a 50K SNP profile completed and will be sold parent verified unless otherwise stated. They have also been tested for the poll, red and myostatin genes with this information printed in the catalogue with each individual lot.
Please use the table below to gain a better understanding on the completed tests:
50K SNP PROFILE INTERPRETATION TABLE
Coat Colour RGF – Homozygous dominant Black RGC – Heterozygous black/recessive Red
Poll / Horn Testing PcPc – Homozygous polled HPc – Hetrozyogous polled (carries one copy of the horn gene)
Myostatin NC – Non carrier of the ny821 gene C – Carries one copy of the nt821 myostatin gene
SEMEN RIGHTS & EMBRYOS
Black Diamond Speckle Parks have retained the right to collect semen from a number of bulls in the sale. Each semen right is disclosed in the individual lot. With the exception of Lot 4 BDS S1200, the collected semen is for in herd use only and there is to be no further call on the bull.
None of the females included in the sale catalogue have been used in an ET program. The females in the sale sell with their whole life ahead of them and we’re sure many are donor worthy once they prove themselves as cows.
All embryos sold in the sale are Grade 1 or “A” Grade embryos. Where implanted by a registered and approved embryo technician BDS guarantees one 90day pregnancy on each lot of embryos sold in the sale. Embryos will be sold on a price per embryo and the total price of the lot will be the number of embryos times the money. Eg. $1000 per embryo with 3 embryos in the lot will be charged at $3000 plus GST
COLOUR PATTERN GUIDE
Speckle Park cattle colour patterns can be defined by four colour patterns, white, leopard, speckled and solid black. Leopard and speckled colour patterns are genetically the same with a differing degree of spotting. Some cattle also carry a recessive red gene this has the potential to produce calves with red coat colour if both parents carry the gene. Please use the below colour chart as a guide to achieve your breeding goals.

SEASON OPENER, as the name suggests, is one of the lead off bulls for this year’s sale. We rated this bull so highly he was our mature bull for the Sydney feature show.
A bull who is incredibly balanced and mobile yet is so soft and correct. He is everything we expected Farr-Out would produce and is the first son of RH Farr-Out to be offered in Victoria.
We believe Season Opener has stud sire potential written all over him.
His dam M36 was selected as a donor female after a short show career as a heifer and her progeny are featured throughout the sale. His small birth weight EBV of +0.5 ranks him in the top 15% for calving ease making him an ideal heifer option.

A Full brother to Lot 2, Season Starter reflects the same quality phenotype. We have been extremely impressed by this pairs ability to lay down not only muscle but also fat cover.
Season Starter is also another great option for those wanting to join heifers with his moderate birth weight. Given how these two bulls have performed and how well their ET sisters have calved out, we are very confident that these bulls are worthy of stud duties.

Talk about cow power, Still Rolling On is a direct son of the highly sort after Tumbleweed Acres Daisy 10X cow. Daisy’s powerful phenotype combined with excellent maternal qualities has made her embryos highly sort after.
Mixed with All In’s performance and style its no wonder this bull can turn heads.
Still Rolling On has a large frame, with a heavily muscled phenotype. His EBV’s rank him in the Top 1% for EMA & Retail beef yield, Top 5% for 400 day, Top 10% for 600 day and Top 15% for 200 day weights.

The Sassafras cow line has left its stamp where ever its gone, renowned for high capacity and highly fertile females with tremendous udders.
Paired with the outcross sire Legacy Revere who has over 60 registered progeny, we are sure this bull will breed on.
It is no surprise Swordfish ranks in the Top 1% for Rib and Rump Fat, given that he is Leptin T/T.
His small EBV birth weight of +0.1 also ranks him in the Top 1% for birth weight, making him a great option for heifers.

Marry Me is also the Dam of the Grand Champion female of this years feature breed show at Sydney Royal.
The combination of Marry Me and Farr Out has given Smoothe Talker a low birth weight and moderate frame, making him an ideal option for heifers.
Farr Out was our 2019 purchase from the Summit 3 sale in Canada, selected as an AI sire for use on our heifers with low birth weight, early maturing, and easy fleshing abilities.

FEMALES
This years female offering are some of our very best directly from the heart of our herd.
As we shift from what has become a extended calving period to prodimantly autumn calving, we decided to offer some of our later calving cows and the majority of our late born heifers for your competition. These are by no means the culls, just unfortunately for us they were born to late to suit our ideal calving window.
As you can see they were joined for a very short period to two of our best Show string bulls. Information on these bulls is on pages 10 & 11.
As for our first female lot, what a way to lead off our female draft. THE PICK OF OUR 3 T DROP HEIFERS FROM THIS YEARS SYDNEY ROYAL.

If you’re looking for a super feminine and maternal cow to build your herd around then look no further.
R758 is a combination of some very strong cow lines and just look at the job she has done on her calf. Her sire Ravenworth Invictus comes out of, in our opinion, the strongest and most consistent herds in Canada for maternal strength. In all of our tours to Canada we were extremely impressed with the quality and consistency of the Ravenworth female herd from their Speckles right through to their Angus they were all exactly the same. On the dam side R758 goes back to the famous E27 cow herd who has over 113 progeny and was a major player in the Turnham families success in building the Waratah Stud. This is a front paddock outfit.

Another young, moderate cow with plenty of fertility. Pandora has a stunning leopard female calf at foot that we are sure will carry on the quality of her dam.
Pandora has a unique pedigree going back to the Wendy cow line who was lightly used in the Australian herd. Her sire was a staple of the Semex program in both beef and dairy sales for years, selected for his low birth weight and strong calf vigour.
Don’t let this moderate cow fool you she can certainly raise a good calf.

R1091 is PTIC heavy in calf and despite our best efforts we haven’t been able to find who she might be in calf too.

S1528 was the crowd favourite at our open day back in February. Admired for her eye catching femininity, paired with extra capacity, all on a moderate frame with a fantastic set of feet and legs. A heifers first calf out of a fantastic heifer bull in Ravenworth Invictus we are sure this young female will continue to get better. S1528 not only has a terrific pedigree but she is also genetically clean and carries 2 copies of the Leptin T/T gene. Like her father, S1528 will be ideal for those wanting to breed heifer bulls with her low EBV birth weight of +0.1 ranking her better than the Top 10% for Birth Weight. S1528 also ranks in the Top 15% for Rib and Rump Fat so her progeny will be easy doing as well.

A direct daughter of the Marry Me cow line who needs no introduction! 4 Marry Me bulls are already in the sale and now so is this exciting female out of one of the major bulls in our herd. The first Poster Boy daughters have been great mothers with terrific udders just like we expected out of the Jade 59A cow line.
Joined to Steel Front Runner 5E this calf will be very closely related to this years Grand Champion Female from Sydney. If you’re wanting a female who will produce moderate offspring with extra muscle and quality udders then don’t miss the opportunity here to secure this future DONOR quality female.

We have been extremely impressed with how our 21U progeny have performed here in Australia. 21U averaged 20 embryos from 4 flushes and with so many embryos still in the tank we have decided to let this good one go.
We are confident that this young female is another one worthy of a donor pen in her future and possibly even a show ring. We can’t wait for S1484 to calve down and show what she is made of, we will certainly be watching her progress at her new home.

A full sister to the 2023 Sydney Royal Calf Champion. Opportunities to access genetics like this don’t come around very often so make the most of it. S1446’s dam has over 30 registered progeny showing her ability to consistently produce quality.
S1446 is perhaps softer then her younger sister but she carries the same terrific length and muscle expression we need in our Speckle Park females.

We wanted our sale quality to run deep and right the way to the end so as we get to the end of the draft what a better way to show our commitment to offering quality but to offer one of only 8 females we have from our Canadian Northern Star donor female.
Northern Star was the calf at foot when the pair was Crowned Grand Champion Female at the 2017 Lloydminster Stockade Round Up. We lost Northern Star last year so this is a big opportunity for someone to access this great cow family. Her dam is another of our hand picked Canadian cows right from the heart of the Ravenworth herd.
If you’re wanting a new cow line and something that’s fully imported look no further.

If you’re looking for a sweet young cow look no further than Sugar.
The carcass female of the draft we are sure Sugar will breed tremendous bulls just like her dam. This combination of Quizzical/L130 has certainly impressed us.
With a herd sire and females retained, and full siblings included in this sale we are happy to share such quality with our clients. Check out her full brother in Lot 25. Her siblings in our show team both received ribbons at Sydney with her full sister coming second to the Reserve Champion Intermediate female who was also in our show string.

Walker needs no introduction with over 245 registered progeny and a trait leader for 3 EBV traits. Willow progeny have been highly sought after, breeding quality sons like Coal Train and BD Rock Solid who have had semen sold internationally.

Rudolf isn’t JUST a show bull though. He is out of one of the best combinations we can make here at BDS and is the Natural calf off his dam.
His moderate frame and easy fleshing ability really appeals to us as an option to breed to larger framed females to soften them up. His EBVs rank him in the Top 10% for 200, 400, 600 & carcass weights as well as the Top 15% for Milk
Rudolf was joined to the majority of the heifers in the sale and we are sure he will compliment them well.
