2025 ANNUAL ONLINE BULL SALE
Monday 8th SEPTEMBER 2025, 6pm
Gippsland PERFORMANCE Herefords
Vision
‘To sell young Hereford bulls with structural soundness and above average genetic merit.’
The Concept
The concept for a performance based bull sale was first considered when five like minded Gippsland Hereford breeders met over a cup of coffee to discuss their breeding programs and breeding objectives and how they proposed to promote their Hereford Studs and sell their cattle, particularly their bulls, into the future.
Point of Difference
Interestingly they were all long time supporters of BREEDPLAN and the various technologies and science available to the stud cattle industry to support them in their breeding decisions and pursuing their breeding objectives.
It was considered important to have a point of difference and they therefore decided on the concept of having a performance based online bull sale.
Conditions of Entry
Conditions of entry were set to ensure each lot was structurally sound and fertile, not carrying any known adverse genetic conditions or Pestivirus, be sire verified and above average for various BREEDPLAN EBV’s, Indexes and the traits they considered were the profit drivers for the beef industry. They are confident the genetic merit of each lot will offer purchasers the prospect of genetic gain within their herds to meet their breeding objectives.

Farrewell to Bill & Minnie Kee’s Warringa Stud
Earlier this year we said farewell to Bill & Minnie Kee’s Warringa Stud from our Gippsland performance Group. Bill was able to sell his entire stud herd to noted Victorian Breeders in Glendan Park, who should do well with the injection of Warringa Blood. Bill was a driving force in commencing our Gippsland Performance Herefords group. He was our unofficial Secretary and Organizer of zoom meetings and catch-ups. His knowledge of Herefords Australia processes and systems was invaluable in setting up our group. We wish Bill & Minnie well in their retirement and we know he will keep a keen interest in our group and the Hereford breed.
