The Red Angus History

" "Seven innovative families chose to use Red Angus in 1954 to establish the industry’s first performance registry. Throughout its history, the Red Angus Association of America has maintained this objective focus and has earned a well deserved reputation for leadership and innovation. By making the right choices over time, and ignoring the short term pressures of industry fads, demand for Red Angus genetics by the beef industry is at an all time high."

RED HIDE COLOR HAS THREE DISTINCT ADVANTAGES:

RED HIDE COLOR HAS THREE DISTINCT ADVANTAGES:
"1)Red is the most populous color of cattle breeds world wide. Red Angus provides a continuity and uniformity of color to any crossbreeding system. 2) Red is more heat tolerant than black and the bronze pigmentation gives great resistance to cancer eye and sun burned udders. The majority of the world’s cattle are in areas that need heat tolerance, so the red color is a definite advantage. 3) Being crossed red always breeds true. Red Angus carry no diluter genes and thus avoid the grays that result when crossbreeding with blacks." Follow this link and click History Brochure to read complete history.

CCI JR Cherokee Classic

  Time goes so fast it is hard for be to believe that just one year ago JR weighed just 71 pounds, and now he is a yearling Bull.
   CCI JR Cherokee Classic - AORB Champion Bull at the Idaho JR Beef Expo.
   JR is a late bloomer I can't wait to see what he looks like at 18 months.

 

    My Cow/Calf pair also were Grand Champion AORB Cow/Calf (Cow/ASV Vilari 133-032 and Heifer calf/Norseman Kings Classic Lady) I call the heifer Wynona as a 3month old heifer she did very well she also won Resv. Champion AORB Heifer.
   My Black Angus Heifer BRA Ideal Brickhouse was Resv. in her in her class. After it was all said and done I was very pleased with how my cattle did at this show.
   The Idaho Jr. Beef Expo is a Black Angus show, this year they also had the Northwest Regional Jr. Hereford Show; there were a lot of beautiful cattle there. Congratulations to all the winning showmen and winning cattle.
      I had a great time and I will see you all next year. Hope everyone has a great summer.
