■ DK03-43  -  A "Herculean" Success Story Undoubtedly one of the best known bulls in the country at the moment, Devlan Stavely Hercules DK03-43 is truly a Limousin success story. His achievements started racking up as a Junior bull, and continued throughout his Senior career.  He is still breaking records today.  His abundant show successes during his years at Devlan include:

                    ■  He was the Reserve Gold Cup Interbreed winner at the Pretoria Show in 2009.
                    ■  He bred the 3 animals that won the “Sire Group of Three Award” at the Pretoria Show in 2009.
                    ■  Reserve National Senior Champion Bull at the National Show in Vryburg 2007
                    ■  Reserve Gold Cup Winner at the Vryburg Show in 2006.
                    ■  Breed Champion Bull at numerous local shows.

He also performed incredibly well outside of the show ring, siring calves of an outstanding quality.  This breeding success resulted in unprecedented semen sales of over R300 000 to date. 

Devlan Staveley Hercules further astounded all by obtaining the National Limousin Record Sale Price of R160 000 when he was sold to Johann Faber in Okahandja, Namibia.  Here he went on to win the Interbreed Bull at the Windhoek Show in 2010 and the Fabers subsequently sold semen to the value of R120 000 at R300 per straw.

His son, Devlan Hercules DK07-92, displays much of his Sire’s promise.  This Gold Merit Award bull represented the Limousin breed at the ARC Phase C class in Pretoria in 2009 and was subsequently sold to the Lotterings in Gobabis, Namibia for a whopping R140 000.  DK07-92’s progeny look equally promising.

We are confident these successes will continue in his new home, and look forward to hearing more exciting tales of his achievements in the future.
