Gerald Wyatt has had an extensive career, from farming in Tasmania to assessing cattle across the eastern seaboard through his business, Classic Livestock Management Services. Now in his late 70s, Gerald has spent decades analysing traits in livestock that can indicate important fertility, temperament, health and eating quality characteristics. From ear wax to scaliness of tail hair, jawbone and rib structure and even positioning of hair swirls, these seemingly irrelevant characteristics can tell you so much about your livestock.
The consistency and femininity of the Speckle Park heifers that Gerald has assessed has really impressed him, especially given the breed’s infancy. The escutcheons – or milk lines - on a mob of heifers averaged 2 in his grading scale, which is “as good as it gets”.
