Greenslopes
females heading out after branding and
tattooing calves.
Greenslopes Beauty
Queen
An apricot cow, out of
Greenslopes Zarippa and by
Broadmeadows Tombola, Beauty
Queen was a small calf with good
growth and temperament. She
milks well and is a special cow
in our herd because of her
beautiful nature which she
displayed naturally from a very
young age.
Beauty Queen was successfully
shown as a heifer to win many
Champion Junior, Grand Champion
Limousin female and a Supreme
Exhibit of Show by Lincoln Mc
Kinlay of Pittsworth State High
School. She is presently in calf
to Wulfs Rambler due to calve
later this year. Her first calf
“Greenslopes Diplomat”, a
beautiful upstanding bull calf
by Collian Park Paris, has been
to two shows this year,
Goombungee and Toogoolwah, where
he was shown in the under 12
months bull class at 6 and 8
months of age by Georgina Stower
from Pittsworth State High
School. Diplomat is a showman
and Georgie has used him in her
junior parader classes to win a
large class of 14 years and
under paraders. Diplomat was on
display at Farmfest this year
and will be campaigned by
Georgie in 2010.
Greenslopes Cousin
A second cross heifer, whose
mother has been a very good cow
in our original commercial herd
and who was eligible for
registration as a first cross.
Her dam is by a Limousin bull,
out of a murray grey x limousin
female who we also owned for
many years. This line of cattle
produced many led steer, led
heifer and carcass champions for
our sons over the years when
they attended Pittsworth State
High School.
Cousin is by the French pure
sire, “Muscleor”. Cousin is a
heavily muscled, black,
naturally polled heifer who has
been recently ai’d to the polled
black bull, “Lloyds Black Polled
Way Up”.
Greenslopes
Delightful
A naturally polled heifer out of
Glenview Waterlilly by Glenview
Polled Yuleo.
 
Greenslopes Dolly
A black, naturally polled 2nd
cross heifer who is a half
sister to Greenslopes Cousin,
being out of the same dam,
“Greenslopes Grey”, and sired by
the bull, “Greenslopes Bob the
Builder”. Dolly is a sweet, deep
heifer with less muscling than
her half sister but a better
natured heifer. Dollys progeny
will be pure bred and eligible
to register and show.
Greenslopes Rambling
Rose
An apricot, naturally polled
heifer who is half sister to our
bull, Greenslopes Blueprint.
Rose is out of the same dam,
“Little River Weebola” and by
the sire, “Wulfs Rambler”. Rose
was broken in when she was 12
months old to attend the
limousin youth camp in Dalby in
September 2008 and then shown
successfully in 2009 by Lincoln
Mc Kinlay from Pittsworth State
High School. Rose has won a
number of Junior and Reserve
Junior Limousin Female,
including Champion Junior Female
at Toowoomba Royal Show in 2009.
She has been ai’d to Collian
Park Paris and is due to calve
in August 2009.
Greenslopes Red,
Glenview Worthy Lass and
Glenview Waterlilly
Greenslopes Red is a first cross
cow by Glenview Theodore, the
sire also of Greenslopes Grey.
Reds dam had 12 calves, giving
us 11 bulls and 1 female calf.
The male calves were all cut and
shown successfully in prime
competitions and the one female
calf was retained as a heifer –
“Greenslopes Red” and registered
as a first cross. Red herself
was shown in prime competitions
and won at Toowomba Royal Show
in the competition they had in
previous years. She has had 3
natural or ai calves and all
have been male. They are the
“Greenslopes Bob” series of
calves – the original “Bob”,
then “Two Bob”, “Three Bob” –
all highly successfully led
steers in their own rights.
“Three Bob” has been renamed
“Scotty” and was purchased by
Bob and Elaine Dull in November
2008 at our first Blue Ribbon
Invitation Sale.
Glenview Waterlilly and Worth
Lass were purchased in Feburary
2008, at John and Coral Winnings
female sale on their property at
Bell. Waterlilly is due to calve
next month to Greenslopes
Blueprint and Worthy Lass has
been ai’d to Tanholm Claus to
calve later this year.
Greenslopes
Zarippa
A favourite cow of ours. This
cow has produced us a 3 lovely
calves so far, with her daughter
Beauty Queen (by Broadmeadows
Tombola), her son, Greenslopes
Commodore (by Wulfs Rambler) and
her daughter, Greenslopes
Dancing Queen (by Refstrup
Tobias), being shown in 2009 by
Brooke Stower from Pittsworth
State High School. Zarippa has a
bull calf at foot by White Lakes
Prototype. He is apricot and
naturally polled.
Zarippa was shown only at
Pittsworth show when she was
very young in our first year of
showing. Not our prettiest cow
but very deep and with buckloads
of milk, she has a superb
temperament. She is out of
“Little River Venetia” and is by
“Myhagah Lumberjack”. Zarippa is
running with our bull,
Greenslopes Blueprint as we felt
he deserved some special females
to see what he can produce.
Zarippas heifer, Dancing Queen
is being offered in our Blue
Ribbon Sale for 2009. Dancing
Queen has won many calf, junior
and champion female limousin
awards including calf champion
female at Toowoomba Royal Show
in 2009.
 
Greenslopes Zinger
Nicknamed “Brick” for obvious
reasons (just look at her) - she
has produced some top quality
led steers. Her son, by “Donna
Valley William of Orange” is
presently being shown by Mr John
Nichols of Casino. John
purchased “William Tell” at our
first Blue Ribbon Invitation
Sale in November 2008 and is in
the running for the $500 cash
bonus, along with Bob Dull for
the steer purchased at that sale
which wins the most Grand
Champion Awards.
Zinger is not a cow that we
would breed stud females from
owing to her nature however we
are very demanding of our
females as if their calves are
not at least a 1 score for
Breedplan they are culled or
used to breed led steers from.
Some people think we are crazy
when we tell them that about
this particular female as she
produces magnificent calves,
however we are rigid with this
policy. She has a bull calf at
foot at present by Greenslopes
Bob the Builder who has been the
exception to the previous calves
as he is very quiet. However he
will be cut and sold as a led
steer to prevent any throwbacks
down the line.
Limodale Madonna
One of our wonderful matrons,
“Limodale Madonna”, by Harvest
Olympus was purchased from Robyn
Nobbs of Ro Maree Limousins a
few years ago. She is a highly
fertile cow and the dam of
Greenslopes Cadillac (DJ
Gentleman in Black), Classic (Collian
Park Tobias) and Dartanion
(Ionesco). Terrific nature and
the quiet boss of the females
she rules the paddock with an
aura that is never challenged.
Her calves have all been quiet
and this years Ionesco bull calf
has been broken in by Jamie
Hollis of Pittsworth Satae High
School. Dartanion went to his
first show at 6 months of age
recently placing 3rd in a line
up of 13 bulls aged under 12
months.
Madonna is heavy in calf to
Greenslopes Blueprint, a calf
that we eagerly await.
Little River Weebola
with her 2009 Calf, Greenslopes
Diamonds and Gold
The female that we consider to
be the most valued in our herd,
having produced 2 good bulls and
2 beautiful daughters. She
produces the most masculine
males and feminine females
possible. She has been ai’d to
Harvest Olympus again and is due
to calve in July 2009. Weebola
is by Broadmeadows Tombola, a
bull that we have used
extensively in our ai program
because of his small born calves
that develop the classic
limousin muscling and his
fantastic temperament.
Diamonds and Gold (Goldie) has
been campaigned by Georgie
Stower and Jamie Hollis from
Pittsworth State High School.
She is our most affectionate,
sweetest natured little heifer
for this years drop and it is
exceptionally hard to part with
her, however we are offering her
at our 2nd Blue Ribbon
Invitation Sale in November. By
Collian Park Paris, she is a
natural in the show ring with
that “look at me” when she walks
in the ring that continually
takes the judges eye. Goldie has
won many blue ribbons and a
Supreme Exhibit of Show award,
even though she is not one year
old till July 2009.
Talana Aspect
Aspect was purchased at Gary
Grahams sale in October 2008.
She calved the day of purchase –
a bull calf by Hammel Garder –
“Greenslopes Digger”. Digger has
a magnificent nature and is a
sweet little boy. Aspect is a
quiet cow, deep red in colour
and has been ai’d to Huidbi Adam
to calve later this year.
Talana Xstatic
Xstatic was also purchased in
October 2008 with Talana Aspect.
She calved in November, a bull
calf by On-Dit who has sadly
since died. Xstatic is another
great natured cow who has a
place in our herd for many years
to come. She has been ai’d to
White Lakes Prototype to calve
October 2009.
Tanholm B17
Purchased as a calf at foot on
her mother, Tanholm Nerrina, B17
has been unshown. She has
developed into a huge volumed,
good natured cow and her first
calf was recently weaned. He is
Greenslopes Dynamite – so named
because we considered him a
cracker. He is by Broadmeadows
Tombola and a heavily muscled
calf that still displays
softness and a wonderful
temperament. Dynamite was broken
in and is being lightly shown in
2009 by Lincoln McKinlay from
Pittsworth State High School.
B17 was left empty and was run
with our bull, Greenslopes
Blueprint in June 2009.
Tanholm Nerrina
Nerrina was purchased with her
calf Tanholm B17 from Kel and
Inger Sorrensen following one of
their internet female sales. We
noticed that as lot 3, she did
not sell at the age of 13 years,
however all her progeny were
sale toppers. With a heifer calf
at foot we were keen to purchase
her and have been very happy
with her calves. She has a
lovely heifer calf at foot in
2009 by Greenslopes Bob the
Builder and is running with
Greenslopes Blueprint. She has
been difficult to ai – possibly
due to her age as she is now 16
years old. She is still mud fat
and milks like a cow 10 years
her junior. Running her
naturally with the bull she has
conceived on her first cycle, so
we have not attempted to ai
again. She is a big volumed cow
with plenty of length and again,
exceptionally quiet.
