The bulls are vaccinated and ear notched for pestivirus, they are fully performance recorded with all traits measured at every point, and they are DELIVERED FREE throughout NSW, QLD, Vic, and SA. This group of bulls are high performancers. Once again the bulls will be in the top 5% of the breed for marbling and better than the top 10% of the breed for eye muscle area. Rennylea clients' cattle are sought for high quality markets. In the last 12 month Rennylea has marketed over 100 heifers under two years of age, straight off grass into the MSA programme, through Rockdale Beef.

Feedback from clients indicates that when Rennylea cattle are put through a grain feeding programme their marbling is consistently at the high end .
