Dexter Cattle For Sale Discussion Board

Unique and special.

Mr. Boyles, are you still a member of council? If so, I beg of you. . . . please bring the issue of Saltaire Platinum's pedigree and it's influence on the breed, especially in America, but also around the world, to a discussion and remedy. It DOES make a difference that breeders in the US were told ...

Let me make one thing perfectly clear to you Duncan and to all others. I am at ALL times honest and ethical. I make mistakes, but I do not, at any time, alter the truth. The truth IS, there ARE errrors on the online website of the DCS and I suppose in recorded pedigrees? Hasn't this recently been di...

Duncan,

Absolutely I would. All you have to do is ask with specific names

Duncan, Need a little help here! I keep reading and re-reading that UCD report and I do NOT see the quote you posted! Come on, Duncan. You have posted hearsay at best, conjecture at worse. Neither admissible by law. You posted commentary by a chat board participant as if it were fact! You still have...

First, the Saltaire Platinum pedigree as published online by DCS in incorrect and members of council on this board should have it corrected forthwith. 1. Modern science nor a comparison of DNA markers will support novel mutation. Was this ever a heartfelt belief at any rate? Duncan himself on this c...

For those interested in pedigree research the completed volumes of early English herd books is growing. NEED: 1924,1925,1926,1927,1928,1929 herd books to add and and Irish volumes 14,15, 16. Here is a list of the information currently added or working: (LegacyDexterCattleRegistry - World Dexter File...

Legacy Dexter Cattle Registry,( a genotype registry) will register cattle from around the world for a minimal fee. The Dexter must be currently registered or meet the requirement for registration in all major Dexter registries, and must be DNA genotyped. A genotype is easily ordered through Legacy, ...

Stephanie I am sure you have thought of this . . . . . . . I am looking for USED straws of early bulls. Often breeders would keep the straw in their files with the AI breeding record. I will take ANY and all straws I can find and will try to return the favor in any possible way. To the point......I ...

I am searching for historical photos - at this time - pre-1960. They will be added, along with registry information to the Legacy Registry ancestral pages as well as the Dexter Historical pages on FB. This gives everyone an opportunity to view early animals and information. The pages of ancestor rec...

I've seen other references over the years in UK discussions as to "nuts" as feed. What are nuts?

>>>Yes The DCS have 76 straws from early Woodmagic bulls and I have been asking to use just 4 of these in a heritage flushing project with Woodmagic Petrel as apart from being such a stunner, she has some particularly interesting genetics<< Stephanie, do they not understand how important a "pre...

Stephanie I asked questions as to semen in the UK on another thread but have another one. Do breeders in the UK keep their own semen storage tanks and store straws? Did Mrs Rutherford store the semen from the Bulls she collected? That brings to mind another question. Mrs Rutherford's estate must con...

Stephanie Do you use AI? Is semen from any of the early AI Bulls of Woodmagic available? I am wondering how one finds a list of Dexters that were collected for AI in England. Are the straws brokered by the owners who collect the Bulls or are the sold by DCS? Does anyone have straws from older Bulls ...

I thought I posted to this thread moments ago. . . but it isn't here so I will repeat. Apologies if it turns up and is redundant. Recently the Grinstead video has gained new life with those who had not previously seen it. A breeder from the Netherlands asked a question about the video and Lady Loder...
