Eleven more heifers cruised past the £1,500 barrier.
The 16 month old heifers which have just seen the bull or been served proved very popular - DH Zoli 15 excelled at £1,207 and DH Sanela 12, whose family is known for consistently high milk yields, flew to £1165.
Auctioneer Charlie Coleman, who worked alongside Frome Livestock Auctioneers, said: "A superb consignment yet again from the Voizey family, with Monday’s outstanding sale results proving how popular the Fleckvieh breed is.
"With a following around the ring and online through Mart Eye, the heifers have been sold across the country seeing them travel from Cornwall up to Derbyshire.
"It was a pleasure to sell such a superb sample of the finest herd of Fleckviehs."
