Weetalabah started breeding Gelbvieh in 1998 with the purchase of SJ Willy R21 from Steve Sullivans dispersal sale. Females have been added over the years from Norolle, Glendale and Glenisa herds. Bulls have been sourced from Midas, Norolle and Canada through AI. The AI bulls used have made a massive impact on the herd, the most influential being the 2-time Canadian National Champion, RWG Right Combination 5506. Some of his sons have been kept and used in the herd. Other notable sires used have been McCoys Signature and AWB Birch's the Boxer, who have had a son each retained and used in the herd, very successfully.
Owned and operated by Aderian & Julie Nixon and their 2 children at Dulacca, SW QLD. They run approx 80 head of moderate framed, easy doing Gelbvieh purebred and percentage females. The cattle are run on native and improved grasses, where the calves are grown out on their mums with no creep feeding and mineral licks used as the only supplement. Bulls are supplemented on a light ration, to guarantee the bulls will last a lifetime for their new owners.
In the past, bulls have been sold at multi-vendor sales and on property but for the first time on 7th November 2023, Weetalabah along with 3 other guest consignors will be running the Inaugural Golden Advantage Sale, in Clermont, Central QLD and online with Elite Auctions. On offer will be over 30 bulls, 3 purebred heifers and semen packages of Gelbvieh and Gelbvieh infused genetics. You can find the sale on Facebook and their website or call Aderian and Julie anytime.
Weetalabah + Cows that milk + calves that thrive = Gelbvieh Advantage.
