K209 is currently in development and is expected to make an outstanding herd sire. He is a direct son of the famous Hirashigetayasu J2351 of imperial Japan. This is an important famous Kedaka line-bred foundation bull. His offspring are large and grow fast. Test in Japan have shown 80% of steers would test A5.
His Dam, Ms. KR. Kikuyasu E241 ET is a docile fertile female that is very important to our donor program. She was a top-selling heifer at the 2019 TWA fall sale from the legendary Kay Ranch in Manor Texas. Her Dam is a direct JVP KIKUYASU-400 daughter. JVP KIKUYASU-400, one of the FAMOUS EXPORTED FOUNDATION SIRES, is a 100%. Tajima blood bull and is reported to be the heaviest Tajima bull imported. Breeders should expect big ribeye offspring. E241 tests AA and has a COI of 0.37%.
K209 has impressive EPV’s with Carcass yield in the top 7%. 200/400/600 weights are impressive in the top 25%. He has an COI of 0.54% and is free of ALL genetic deficits. We do plan to harvest semen prior to his sale and retain it for our use or future sale. He tests AA/06. He is scheduled for sale at the TWA Fall Sale in 2023 but is also available for private treaty sale. Interested parties may make their interest known.
