Do you love beef? Look no further than American Aberdeen cattle! Those familiar with this lesser-known breed of cattle will tell you that these cattle are as full of character as they are delicious. Their beef is such an amazing treat to enjoy on your dinner plate!
American Aberdeen cattle were developed from a breed of Registered Angus that was established in 1929 at the Trangie Research Center in Australia, and they are now considered an excellent breed for new farmers. These cattle have survived decades of breeding with regard to frame size, allowing for smaller newborn calves and making them great mothers. It's easy to see why this breed has become such an exciting option for small ranchers getting started in the beef industry.
This information made us decide that the Aberdeen breed was the one for us. We don't have a lot of pasture land and have to supplement feed for most of the year. We feed our cattle on alfalfa and oat hay and grain finish them . We found they have excellent taste, texture, and tenderness and have a great beef yield per hundred pounds of body weight, which translates to very high yielding, high quality, high value beef carcasses. What we love the most about these cattle is their smaller size and easy going nature.
Here at the ranch, we run primarily a cow/ calf operation meaning we keep the babies until about 6 months and then sell off the steers.
