Expert suppliers of Breeding Native Aberdeen Angus heifers, available either individually or in even aged batches direct from Drumphin farm.
Welcome to Drumphin Farm.
The Drumphin herd was founded in 2003 by Jo and Osla Guest. In 2020 they have been joined by the next generation of Oliver and Lisa Guest. The herd now comprises 190 cows with followers. From the outset the breeding policy has been aimed at breeding moderate sized cows with the object of producing easy fleshing cattle which will fatten primarily off grass. Drumphin now has one of the largest herds of Native Aberdeen Angus cattle.
Our Cattle.
All cows are registered with the society with the exception of a small number of commercial Aberdeen Angus cows of the larger type whose calves will not be retained in the herd. These cows will in due course be replaced with home bred pedigree heifers which conform to our breeding policy.
A closed herd health policy has always been followed. The limited stock which have been introduced have been purchased direct from farms with closed high health status herds. Cattle are regularly tested and there have been no contagious disease issues in the herd.
The majority of the herd is spring calving with February and March being the busiest months. Approximately 30 cows are calved in the autumn mainly in October and November. Autumn calving has been started to enable the slower growing later born heifers to be bulled so as to calve at 30 months with the earlier born heifers calving at 24 months.
