Gyranda Real Time R280(PS) was purchased for the top price of $85,000 at the 2021 Gyranda
Sale. The faultless calving records of both his dam and granddam attracted our attention and
his outcross genetics was an added bonus as genetic diversity in any herd is important.
Real Time’s fertility traits are a feature. He sold with a 98% normal semen morphology result
and as mentioned above he is bred from a super fertile female line. In addition, he has a large
set of testicles. After one drop of sons has been measured, these traits are all highlighted in
his EBVs.
With semen morphology taking precedence in our eyes, high scrotal measurements are not
always a good thing. However, bulls that measure bigger but provide high semen quality as
well, are valuable tools when making mating decisions. Our aim is to create animals that hit
optimum levels for all traits and some cows need boosting in this area.
Real Time is a practical, easy doing bull who is moderate framed. Given his genetics and type
we feel that he will leave a legacy of females with long breeding lives.
