Choose Red
Angus.....Why?
Excellent
maternal traits -
Calving ease bar
none, high rate of
milk production
making them
excellent mothers
that produced heavy
weaning calves.
Reproduction traits-
Reproduction is the
number one factor
that influences
profitability. The
number and quality
of the calves on the
ground at the end of
calving season
represents the
potential economic
recieved on the herd
bull investment. Red
Angus breeders have
focused on
increasing the
performance of their
cattle, but have not
lost sight of the
importance of
calving ease. As a
result, the genetic
trends of Red Angus
show a strong
increase in growth
with only a small
change in birth
weight. Red Angus
cows are early
maturing, easy
breeders who deliver
live, vigorous
calves and breed
back within a very
short time.
Quiet, easy going
dispositions -
The gentle
dispositions of Red
Angus cattle make
them a pleasure to
own and work with no
matter of age,
locale or operation.
Because of their
gentle dispositions,
many young people
enjoy
involvement with Red
Angus cattle in
junior shows
throughout the
nation in 4-H, FFA
and open shows.
These are the Red
Angus breeders
of the future and
the future of the
Red Angus breed.
