Babe Family
The first of the Babe Family was purchased by Dalbora Genetics at the Northern Lights Sale in April 2008, bringing home Meldan Brookbi Babe. This branch of the Babe family is extremely consistant with production indices well above herd average across every generation along with great type. Brookbi Babe calved in November 2008 with a Valerian heifer.
In August 2008 further members of the Babe family were purchased. Dam, Kaarmona Flowerpower Babe 5, full sister Meldan Brookbi Babe 2, and maternal sisters Meldan Valerian Babe & Meldan Impuls Babe made the move to Tennyson. Meldan Brookbi Babe 2 calved in February with a Blackstone heifer.
Flowerpower Babe's two natural calves have both entered progeny testing with Genetics Australia. Paperboy, by Manhattan, is due for a proof in 2010 and Bakari, by Tailboard will be progeny tested in 2009 and will receive his proof in 2013. She has sinced calved with a Gannon heifer and classified VG 88.
Meldan Brookbi Babe 2 received first place in the 2 1/2 year old class in the Northern District Jersey Breeders Club On Farm Challenge in November 2009 and has been entered in IDW 2010.
