BIRDTAIL ShorthornS
Located
We make our living entirely from our ranch raised cattle and they work hard for us, no pampering.
To accomplish this, our Shorthorns must have excellent feet, good udders and great dispositions. We have breeding stock available at all times.
ALWAYS WELCOME!
VISITORS
in the beautiful Birdtail Valley, we challenge our purebred cattle to work in this rugged environment and they perform very well.
