Reference Sires and Semen
Myers-Cooper Escondido 7000E
US domestic semen available only. $1,000 per unit.
Escondido is our lead herd sire due to his proven ability to transmit phenotypic quality and marbling excellence. His offspring are calm natured, big bodied and thick made. His young daughters are heavy milking and are inherently good mothers. This is the highest marbling bull Dr. Cooper has ever worked with and he's worked with them all. His dam, Diamontina 7863W, is a no miss type of female that is highly fertile. Her phenotype should be marked as an Akaushi standard of excellence.
Escondido’s sire, HeartBrand 1338Z, was one of the highest marbling bulls in the breed. Like his sire, Escondido is easy calving and moderate plus on growth rate. 1338Z was the 3rd highest rated sire in the AAA 2024 Days to USDA Prime study and we feel Escondido is stronger than his sire in total marbling, growth and daughter milking ability..
He is one of the few Akaushi genetic pieces available that offers double HARUKO breeding.

Romeo 1636F
Domestic semen available only. $1000 per unit.
Romeo 1636F is on lease from the Flying M Beef company (The Braden family). He has proven to generate early marbling in F2's and transmit his Red Angus body type. In 2020, Dr. Cooper selected Romeo 1636F as the top son of El Jefe 2019A. El Jefe 2019A was the highest rated sire in the AAA 2024 Days to USDA Prime study. However, El Jefe has very little semen in storage. Dr. Cooper worked with El Jefe as a two year old and saw tremendous potential in his legacy. Romeo 1636F reigns as his top son. His dam, 2100A, is a Rueshaw daughter that is now at 16Peaks in Tennessee. Both he and his sire have superior body design, head shape and natural dimension. He brings forth another source of Haruko genetics.
We are extremely grateful for our partnership with the Braden's on their sires. His calves exhibit another level of quality yet to be seen in this breed.
