Progeny of Alpha came to the forefront of the 2024 SydGen sale with his son the $90,000 valued ORIgen sire SydGen Empire 3715 ranking as the top selling bull while his $70,000 daughter was the top selling spring heifer calf selected by Express and Spruce Mountain.

With 176 progeny genomic tested as of late January 2026, Alpha offers a balanced combination of growth, maternal and carcass merit and 168 progeny in 16 herds recording an average weaning ratio of 104 and 77 progeny in 11 herds have an average yearling ratio of 105 and 29 sons have an average yearling scrotal circumfernce ratio of 103 as the industry focus on male fertility and conception rates continues to intensify.

The dam of Alpha has calved each year on time while being flushed and has averaged over 21 eggs per flush and has already placed herd sires and donor daughters in several herds and the grandam of Alpha has been a cornerstone Yon donor that has amassed more than $500,000 in lifetime progeny sales.

The predictable performance of his first progeny led SydGen to acquire a possession interest in Alpha and he has been sampled heavily in their breeding program along the herds of his two original owners.
