The Queen B. LITERALLY. 👑
Oxbow Bethany, our girl who has never missed a beat. She was one of our very first heifer calves, by Ascot Cocoa out of Baroma Downs Nora.
We are so blessed to have her in our herd.

VALE - VIVIAN RICHARD FORBES
The Braford community extends its deepest condolences to the family and friends of Vivian Richard Forbes, who passed away peacefully on 15th November 2025, aged 86 years.
Viv was well known within our community as the owner of Twin Hills Brafords, contributing greatly to the breed through his knowledge, dedication and lifelong passion for the cattle industry.
His life was marked by extraordinary achievements and an unwavering commitment to principle. A Dux, Geologist, Economist, Intellectual, Libertarian, Writer, Poet, Political Commentator, Coal Miner, Sheep Farmer, Grandfather and Founder of the Carbon Sense Coalition, he inspired many through his rigorous study, strong values and advocacy for honest, evidence-based conversation.
Viv will be remembered not only for his accomplishments, but for the legacy he leaves behind and the values he instilled in those around him.
Family and friends are invited to honour Viv’s life at a memorial service:
Friday, 5th December 2025 at 9:00am (Please arrive before 8:45am)
Centenary Memorial Gardens, 353 Wacol Station Road, Sumner, 4074
Our thoughts are with Judith and the entire Forbes family during this difficult time.

My deepest sympathy to Judy & family.
Sympathy to Judy and family. I always found Viv a pleasure to deal with during my time at the Braford office.
A reminder to members that Female Inventory is due soon. Your female inventory list must be returned to the Braford office by 1st December.
If you haven’t received your inventory list, please reach out so we can send one to you as soon as possible. Otherwise, please return your completed list promptly to avoid being charged for females not active within your herd.
Need help completing your female inventory? please get in touch and will be more than happy to assist.

EOI
Chadwick Downs Platinum T083
We’ve made the hard decision to put Platinum on the market as hes not being used here enough and going to waste
He’s a lovely quiet, sound bull. Only 3yrs old.
Competed successfully at BEEF24.
Up to date with vax and drenching.
We have gorgeous progeny on the ground by him if any one would like pictures of them aswell.
We have collected and frozen straws from him which we keep the rights to register resulting progeny if we choose.
Pm for further details.

Really interesting, thanks for sharing 👍
MCN 2238 (P) is one of our foundation Braford heifers.
Sired by Baroma Downs Ringo 474 (P) and out of Strathgyle Honey (P). She carries a pedigree loaded with fertility, natural thickness and inheriting that clean, moderate sire (Ringo) frame. Highlighting it’s functionality.
A heifer bred not just to look the part, but to build the next generation of functional, fertile and easy keeping Brafords at *Premier Breeding & Livestock*.

You’ve done it again, entries for the 2026 Braford Youth Camp have officially reached capacity!
We are incredibly grateful for the enthusiasm and ongoing support from our members. Pre-order shirt sales are now closed too, and we can’t wait to see everyone proudly wearing them out and about.
Bring on 2026! 💪

Have confirmation emails been sent? I filled out the registration weeks ago but haven’t heard anything as yet? Just want to make sure it went through
