Hotspot started out in 1997 as the result of my dreams as a 11 year old boy. I grew up with a dairy that my grandfather started in the 1970’s. I had always wanted to have my own cattle and was privileged to buy 2 heifers when I was 11 years old. In 2006 I bought 14 Boran Embryo’s from Simon Hodgen. 9 Heifers were born out of this batch and so Hotspot Boran started out. Through extensive embryo programmes I only multiplied the best to grow the herd. In 2014 I married the love of my life, Elri, who’s dad, Ockert Werner is also a Boran Breeder and owner of Model Boran stud, also one of the top Boran Stud’s in the country.
