Date of Birth: November 14/11
Sire:       Eye Candy
Dam:     Duncan’s 9N (Angus X Maine/Hereford/)

9N has been a solid producer for us. We have 2 daughters in the herd including a Who Made Who 2 year old.  Blair Campbell bought 9N’s first steer in our inaugural sale and he stood third in the open Hereford class at the Easter Beef Show.  C&C Livestock purchased her steer calf last year and he went on to be the 2012 PEI Easter Beef Show Champion Shorthorn for Colby MacQuarrie.  9N is bred back to Eye Candy for a November calf.
