There are some outstanding calves being born to Heritage Shorthorn breeders in the U.S. and in Canada with photos submitted for the Calf of the Month. The latest to be featured is a Canadian-born heifer, and you may be “surprised” at her sire. She is posted on the HSS website on the “Calf of the Month” Page. Take a look, and consider submitting your own potential Calf of the Month.
If you have one or more appealing photos of your cattle which might make a good addition to the photo gallery at the top of the HSS home page, please send the photos to the HSS office — office@heritageshorthorn.org. They generate a lot of interest in the Shorthorn breed.
The ongoing updating of the Heritage Shorthorn pedigree database is a priority for HSS as a service to all Shorthorn breeders. The HSS pedigree database allows anyone to view both the latest pedigree updates and search for pedigree information on specific animals. It is the most complete public Heritage Shorthorn database in the world. HSS wants to thank HSS member Dr. Bert Moore for his ongoing help in finding historical pedigree information on many different older Shorthorns. His help has been invaluable.
HSS continues to document new Verified Heritage Shorthorn bulls as a service to Heritage Shorthorn breeders. Periodically check listings to view what bulls have been added. If you know of a bull which qualifies but is not on the list, send a note to the HSS office.
