Lynderg Hero, Balmoral Show 2014
The Quail Family have been butchers for 120 years. They search for the same characteristics in their carcass selection as they do in their Limousin breed selection – fine bone, good depth of loin, plenty of milk, great muzzle and character in their heads, and easy fleshing cattle.
James Quail established The Lynderg Herd in 1977 with the purchase of the Heifer Pelletstown Lucile at Dublin Show. Four French heifers followed in 1979. In 1981 Curraghgrange Tiara was purchased, she was a tremendous brood cow that helped lay the foundations of the Lynderg Herd.
Through the years several French bulls were bought including Valide (Champion Balmoral 1986), Ocean (Champion Balmoral 2000), and Ludo (Male Champion Royal Highland and Reserve Male Balmoral 2002). Six outstanding females were purchased in 2003 Java, Ideune, Ondine, Palmira, Oralie, and Sabine.
A combination of these genetics plus Tiara’s offspring has formed the core of the herd today. They have produced the home-bred bull Lynderg Hero – Male Champion Balmoral 2013, Male and Reserve Champion Balmoral and Royal Highland Show 2014, and All Ireland Young Bull Champion 2013. Interbreed Champion Castlewellan and Antrim 2014.
Lynderg Dimitri sold to Declan McKenna produced an Allams Supreme Champion. Lynderg Napoleon is another of our stock bulls and is the son of the show cow, Janette.
Hero’s daughters form most of the females in the herd today and we pride ourselves as having different and exciting genetics to most other Limousin herds.
We hope you enjoyed reading a little about our family history, our passion for livestock, and the Limousin breed. Thank you, Jim & Joseph Quail
