At "Eylwarra Sands" we currently run 40 stud cows and 12 stud heifers. We are  also running some commercial cows.
  
Our cattle are reared under paddock conditions, no fostering, growth stimulants or hormones are used. All stud cattle are breed plan recorded and are MN2.

Stud History

"Eylwarra Sands" Murray Grey Stud was founded in 1997 on Tarlina, Kaltara, Torrens Vale and Monterey bloodlines. 
 

In 2000 we started a AI program to better our genetic pool. We started off using Monterey Megaman & Waverley Helios. In 2001 we collected semen from "Eylwarra Sands" General U17 prior to selling him for $4500 3/4 share to T Carter. In 2004 we have purchased 20 straws of semen of Monterey Vegemite Kid of whom we have calves from the 2003 A.I program. Which were all born unassisted, and are showing a even line of calves with growth, muscle and balance.

In broadening our genetic base we have purchased a young heifer, two cows with excellent bloodlines from the Monterey Murray Greys.
