The PBF Gentleman James (AI)(ET)(BB) sired bull was purchased by Mark Morawitz, Brockley Park, Walcha, NSW for his high Brahman content and great sire appeal. Contested right to the end by under-bidder Tim Gallagher, AAco, Mr Morawitz secured the bull via a phone bid after inspecting prior to the sale.

Kandanga Valley 6th Annual On Property Bull Sale – July 25th 2009
A beautiful sunny week leading up to the 6th annual Kandanga Valley on property bull sale threatened to change for the worse as some dark clouds rolled over the Kandanga hill on sale day.
However rain didn’t eventuate and some spirited bidding kept buyers warm as the temperature dropped slightly on the large crowd packed around the selling ring.
With 50 Charolais and 34 Charbray, 1 Limousin x Charolais and 7 grey Brahman bulls on offer, some brisk bidding saw a strong result achieved in just two and a half hours.
Topping the sale at $12000 was the 35mth old Charbray bull, Kandanga Valley B668. The first Charbray into the ring, B668 was a big, mobile fellow weighing 952 kg with an EMA of 131 and fat scans of 8 & 6mm. He sold along with lot 57, Kandanga Valley B737 ($8000) to Beryl Whyatt, Colinton.
Losing bidders on the first two Charbray lots, Greg & Shirley Callander, Sarina, weren’t going to be outdone on the next 3 bulls paying to a top of $9000 for lot 60, a massive volume bull weighing 984kgs at 31mths with an EMA scan of 136sq cm, fat of 9 & 7 mms and a whopping 45.5cm scrotal measurement.
Third top price was also paid by the Callander family for front cover feature bull, Kandanga Valley C901, by Kandanga Valley Zeppelin (P), and from a quality Garglen brahman dam by Mr International. Weighing 920kg at 26mths, with an impressive EMA of 136 sq cm, he was snapped up for $8500. The Callander family took 6 bulls home to average $6100.
Young sons of our homebred sire Kandanga Valley Ironman twice sold to $7000 to G Duncan, Gayndah and Lincoln Thorley, Miriamvale.
33 Charbrays sold to average $4969 in a strong show of support for the breed.
Overall 88 bulls sold, from 92 offered, to average $4306, in a solid display of support for the Kandanga Valley herd and the Charolais and Charbray breeds.
Primex, Casino 11-13 June 2009
What a success! It was unbelievable as to the amount of interest in the Charbray breed. On display we had Bodman and his mother Rachel (fresh out of the paddock blooming, heavily in calf), Cobon (a 75:25 CC:BB Bull) and Caleeta (a 25:75 heifer- who incidentally won the Junior Champion All Breeds Heifer).
Bodman drew the crowd with his sheer size and appeal, with comments being made by cattlemen “We didn’t know Charbray’s could be this good”, positively challenging traditional thoughts on the Charbray, and creating a lot of interest in generational breeding.
Congratulations must go to Ian and Colleen Clark of ‘5 C’s Charbrays’, Casino for achieving 3rd place in the site competition. Ian and Colleen, along with other New South Wales Charbray studs had a wonderful display of photos and material to help promote our breed.
Thank you Ian and Colleen for inviting Newcombe’s Charbrays to Primex and for your tireless efforts in presenting a fantastic site to promote the Charbray breed.
Visit us and "Bodman" and "Dawson's" new owners, Samari Charbrays, Roma at AgShow, Toowoomba on September 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Site MS 565 & 566 in the M & S Cattle pavilion.
