STOCK SIRES

It’s no secret that Michael has a huge passion for the Aberdeen-Angus breed and ever since his grandfather sold the Staplegrove herd he’s wanted to get back into the breed, so in October 2015 the breed made their return to Foxhill Farm when we bought a brace of foundation females.

ANGUS

Purchased at Carlisle in May 2024 for 9000gns was Wensleydale Black Voltage Y140. He is by Gretnahouse Blackboot V082 and out of a homebred dam Wensleydale Black Vision V148. Maternal sisters sold for 17,000gns and 18,000gns at the Gretnahouse dispersal sale.

Black Voltage goes back to some very good pedigree lines including Peter Pershore, Blelack Ensign, Gretnahouse Blacksmith, Blelack Duke and Ardrossan Admiral. 

He stood first in his class before taking the junior and overall championship. He was purchased for his outstanding breed character, good locomotion and bone, depth of loin, and width in the plates and good hindquarters.

LIMOUSIN

Purchased at Carlisle in February 2025 for 14,000gns was Grahams Utah for 14,000gns.

This August 2023-born son of Gunnerfleet Lion is the first son out of Grahams Precious who was champion at the Royal Highland Showcase. In the pre-sale show on Friday, Utah stood second in his class to the overall champion.

CHAROLAIS

With establishing the Foxhillfarm Charolais herd with the purchase of some foundation females from the Gretnahouse dispersal, a trip to Stirling bull sales in October 2024 saw the purchase of a stock bull for the Charolais herd at 14,000gns.

Holllywell Unclebob at the age of just 16 months was placed 1st in his class at Stirling Bull Sales in October 2024. He caught our eye in the show ring, for his tremendous width and body and achieving a daily live weight gain of 1.84kg.

Sired by Nuthampstead Judas who is the sire of Lochend Knighthawk who is breeding well at the moment when he was sold for 28,000gns at the Gretnahouse dispersal. He is the sire of our heifer Foxhillfarm Victorious that is currently being shown this winter. We look forward to what he breeds for us in the future.
