We
added a second breed to our operation in 1991. Black Angus was the natural
choice because Herefords and Angus compliment each other and are the two most
widely used maternal breeds in the industry. Both can be successfully bred to
their own kind; are the base for most other cross-breeding programs; and make an
exceptional cross together. Our foundation Angus cows came from the established
and reputation herd at Thomas Angus Ranch in Baker City, OR. They are
predominantly AAR New Trend breeding and the length, femininity and overall
capacity of these upstanding females is something all cow men appreciate.

as well as heifers. He's an active breeder in the pasture and as easy a fleshing bull as you
will find. His dam is a great producer. 503R's PAP score is only 38, so he too will have
positive influence on our program's PAP.
