Maternal sister to Tsunami
Tsunami is sired by KCF Bennett Catalyst H472 who has been used extensively here in Canada in both the Crittenden and McCoy breeding programs. Bred by Knoll Crest Farms, Catalyst offers tremendous calving ease yet still sires progeny that pack enough performance and substance to be popular with our commercial bull buyers.
Dam of Tsunami is PCL 6153 Miss Jade ET 56G. Only in a dispersal can you acquire a dam of this quality. She was our choice of the sale features in the Phantom Creek Dispersal Sale.
We set out to produce a sire that would cross well with our Tlell cow herd to eventually produce EU Exportable embryos. Tsunami 5N left our ranch on Haida Gwaii, as a fall calf, in October 2025. We trailered him directly to Alta Genetics in Alberta. His first semen was collected in Dec at 11 months of age. After further testing he was moved into the EU Isolation barn to collect semen qualified for both direct export to Europe and the production of embryos from Canadian cows that can then be qualified for EU export.
Following his stint at Alta, Tsunami did a closed trailer transfer to Bovigen Genetics in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan,under the supervision of CFIA. This was to maintain his “time served” in an accredited AI facility so he could continue to produce internationally exportable semen.
At Tlell this spring we bred a third of our cow herd to Tsunami and are looking forward to his first offspring in January 2027.

Bull calves like Red Zulu come along rarely in a breeders career. His pedigree is eight generations deep in Tlell breedings and includes many of the breed icons such as Leonard, Boomer, Boulder, Blueprint and Felton 517 as well as Stamina and Olympian. His dam is double bred to Jade 550C which the Richardson's acquired from the Saddle-Valley Dispersal. This calf has the EPD documentation we are all striving to find for calving ease and maternal milk, yet still has actual growth and performance to grab your attention. His two year old Jade mother is an absolute gem, and did a great job on her first calf. This cow/calf pair sold for $27,000 in the Richardson Ranch Online Sale.
Red Zulu 1Z was shown at the World Hereford Conference where he attracted attention from breeders around the world. He has that rare combination of a low birth weight (only 74 lbs) while achieving a very large weaning weight ( 205d adj of 862 lbs.). His actual weight when he left the farm for the Alta Genetics Stud was 996 pounds on October 6th with a 32 cm scrotal circumference. We expect Red Zulu to follow his sire Tlell 29F Red Cedar 8N to be a Birth Weight and Calving Ease trait leader who will moderate cow size. Use Red Zulu with confidence on your heifers this spring to to increase value in your next calf crop!
