| | The majority of our cow family go back MRL 2 Lerch ET 40T, which was out of L1 Lerch Domino 825 and Bell-L 60H .Domino Lass 82K 40T was a 3/4 brother to Hanson's HR 825 Domino Lad 1T. Another major herd bull influence was BP Andy Commander 4S. His mother was Canada's top producing cow in that particular time in the industry. We used him for three crops of calves and we retained some very good females which are producing exceptionally well.

In 1992 we were fortunate to buy Bell-L Diamond's Return 21B , son of Bell-L Diamond ET 12Z. The bull was bought as a six monthBell - L Diamonds Return 21B old calf from Gary Hanson's dispersal sale. We showed Diamond's Return 21B in Agribition in 1994 where he was Senior Reserve Champ. In 1997 we showed two of his sons at the Calgary Bull Sale. They received a first in class and a third in class.
We used Diamond's Return as a calf and continued to use him until the summer of 2000 when he was seriously injured in a trench left behind by an oil company who had been doing some drilling on our pastureland .Although Diamond 21B is no longer alive we have many of his daughters and the tradition of good udders, and plenty of milk continues.
