The Drumphin herd is built around a clear breeding objective: producing fertile, moderate-sized Native Aberdeen Angus cattle that thrive on forage-based systems and deliver strong maternal performance.

The vast majority of our cows are registered pedigree Native Aberdeen Angus cattle. Through careful selection and a disciplined breeding programme, we continue to strengthen the herd with home-bred replacements that meet our standards for temperament, structural correctness, fertility and longevity.

Herd health is a key priority. We operate a closed herd policy wherever possible, with any introduced cattle sourced only from farms with equivalent high-health-status herds. Regular health testing and strict biosecurity measures help maintain the health and integrity of the herd, providing confidence for purchasers.

The majority of the herd calves in the spring, with a smaller autumn-calving group helping to ensure a steady supply of quality replacement females. This structured approach allows us to continue improving the herd while maintaining a consistent offering of breeding stock for sale..
