BIG AL HB 502E

Description

The first bull born outside of Japan and we consider him a foundation sire within the HeartBrand herd. His pedigree combines the highly regarded bulls Dai 10 Mitsumaru and Namimaru Tokkyu 87. His dam, Akiko, is the epitome of cow power and those strengths are apparent in Big Al daughters. Big Al’s legacy will be his maternal power. He’s a bull that blends calving ease with high volume body type, good milking ability and longevity.
