Ocelo is a really exciting prospect for pedigree Charolais breeders in Ireland. He is a son of the great Major, from whom straws are no longer available. His dam Brésilienne was without any doubt one of the best cows in France in recent years. A daughter of the proven maternal bull, Pinay, Brésilienne has produced some outstanding progeny in France. Many of her sons are stock bulls in leading pedigree herds, including Ibra Mic, Liverpool and Hongrois.

Ocelo is an all round attractive bull with style, power, correctness, breed character and length. He is jointly owned by Gaec Devillard and Earl Benas Jean Pierre in France. His first calves hit the ground last autumn and are showing tremendous potential. Ocelo carries one copy of the F94L and one copy of the Q204X myostatin genes. Straws of Ocelo are now available from the Charolais Society at €40/straw. Please e-mail info@charolais.ie to order straws of Ocelo.
