Unequaled In Tradition And Value

     King Ten became a highly respected name in the late 70's and 80's. He earned it the old fashioned way and deserves the recognition yet today as the accumulated records have added further to his great value.

      King Ten is known best as a maternal sire -lots of milk- beautiful udders and teat size-high degree of fertility and excellent mothering instincts. These traits were no surprise as King Ten's dam, grand dam and dam's full sister were considered to be priceless females in the Carpenter herd.

      King Ten's progeny have proven to provide extra carcass value - another value added genetic trait.

     Longevity, fertility, extra lean to fat ratio, along with natural fleshing, low maintenance and feeding efficiency belonged consistently to King Ten progeny. Traits most necessary today.

       King Ten became more acclaimed through the test of time. Few bulls have been as respected. His genetics have added much integrity to the cattle producers that used him or his offspring. The return of King Ten genetics can offer a great deal to the herds of today.
 



       King Ten (the Carpenter-Williams bull) is our most fortunate herd bull purchase in recent years. We couldn't have asked for a  more consistent breeding bull. The gaining ability of his progeny is impressive, with 82 of his progeny having been processed through the yearling phase of the TPR program and carrying an average yearling ratio of 106.0, making King Ten's yearling breeding value ratio 111.2. The ability of his daughters to milk certainly looks great, also. In our view, King Ten will become very well known after this sale. Breeders have to be extremely impressed by the many outstanding calves, bull and female alike, that are selling. There are many show prospects in the present calf crop. Most are well marked and light colored with eye pigment. We have bred many cows to King Ten, and many more to his sons. He crosses extremely well with the Big Northern cattle. King Ten will have a very positive influence on Hereford cattle in the future.

        The "Carpenter" bulls have performed in an overwhelming fashion at the Midland Test. When we selected King Ten at Billings in 1976, we felt that we had a "herd header". He was very correct, extreme in his length and height, and was packed with red meat. With his eye appeal and gaining ability, we felt we had to own him. His dam was very exciting, the kind any cowman likes, and she was the top heifer in her calf crop out of the top breeding value cow in the outstanding Carpenter herd.

      We feel confident that many breeders will have a "King Ten" infusion in their herds as time passes. He is truly a "Breeder Improver".
