- High PIN & PLI sire
- Tall, angular cows
- Outcross breeding
- Good components
- Bambro x Brook x Tanic
DJ Belle sires cows that are taller and more angular than average. They are good dairy cows with a boost in milk production coupled with small plusses for butterfat and protein percentages. A fairly low Cell Count of 1 gives him the edge on many bulls and is in line with good Danish health traits. He is recommended to improve dairyness and udder health and is a good cross for daughters of the American bulls or Lemvig daughters. He is a Bambro BH son, out of a Fyn Tanic daughter making him outcross to most other sires.
