First iceman calves hit the ground
Mackas are excited to have the first-ever Texas Iceman calves hit the ground! Born early, easy calving, long-bodied and super soft skin, the first calves have not disappointed. We look forward to 1000 commercial calves this spring, 150 ET calves and 75 stud calves.
Robert Mackenzie says, "If you study the pedigree of Iceman R725, combined with his impressive eye appeal and breed-leading performance, it makes him a leading young sire."
“Iceman" lands at Macka’s
The top-gun sire in Texas Iceman R725 wrote his name in the record books when the Gloucester-based Macka's Angus made the bold bid of $225,000 to secure the upcoming sire, which will be collected and marketed worldwide in partnership with Genetics Australia
Iceman R725 caught the eye of many from the get go, being a son of Poss Maverick and a maternal brother to the $108,000 Texas Powerplay P613 that sold to Kelly's Angus, Victoria last year.
