OUR HERD STOCK BULLS

We take great care when selecting our Herd Stock Bulls. Their back breeding and how they will fit into existing breeding lines within the herd are all taken into consideration. Our herd has been developed and built on solid breeding foundations through careful genetic selection. We know the style, depth and breed integrity built into the herd, so when selecting a stock bull to build on all of that requires vision. We know what we need, what we want and through careful selection we get it. The herd must always be progressing, it will never be a finished product, as breed ideologies change we must always be adapting to those changes. Through our back breeding history we have taken characteristics from dams and sires which we wish to maintain or advance. The herd turned 40 years old in 2020. If you want quality in your breeding, look no further.
