ARIES ANGUS
PEDIGREE COW HERD PRODUCTION SALE
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in our production sale.
The sale offering consists of 61 three & four-year-old registered Hereford cows, all rearing a calf in 2022. We also offer from our small, but expanding Aberdeen Angus herd, all the cows from three years & older rearing their calf in 2022.
AIRIES ABERDEEN ANGUS had its first pedigree Angus calf registration in 2000, and that was the start. Initially our sole interest was in breeding good F1 Black Baldie calves from our established Hereford herd, and to have a supply of young Angus bulls for use on heifers.
We believe the cows from both our herds offer a great opportunity to you to obtain cattle with genetics aimed to produce profit in today’s beef industry in the UK. They are all bred to be efficient converters of grass and to be perform outdoors, problem free. We regard every cow offered to be worthy of an important place in our herd and whether you purchase the top priced, or the bottom priced, we expect each cow to do a great job and establish themselves as a valuable addition to your herd.
We hope you find the videos helpful but will be incredibly happy to arrange to show you round the cattle and allow you to evaluate their potential for yourself, if you can make the trip.
This offering is a unique opportunity for you to obtain our best cows at the price that suits you.
Best regards,
John, Alexandra, Rosie, Ellen, Olivia and Kristina

Come and view the cattle in their true natural condition, straight from the field with no pampering or preparation. Our breeding policy is to let our cows do the work and look after themselves and their calves. No creep is provided for calves before weaning, in order to measure the true maternal performance from grass. After weaning, the heifer calves are reared commercially in their full group. Each July we ultrasound our entire bull and heifer crop for muscle depth and back fat and provide full information for their EBV’s Our cattle have genetics you can rely on for profit. They have been reared to exhibit hardiness, thriftiness and fitness and still perform well. They will work and continue to perform and will not require special treatment and feeding. They will produce calves that fill you with pride.

Where do we differ from most other herds?
We base our selections on traits that directly affect commercial profit.
? Our herd is line-bred for High Natural Performance. Yearling growth is our first selection criteria in our stock bulls.
? Our line-bred herd produces calves with Increased Predictability. Less variation in the calf crop including birth weights and growth rates.
? Our line-bred cattle produce calves with Increased Uniformity of Type. Progeny have good structure and conformation built-in.
? Our line-bred cattle produce progeny with Increased Hybrid Vigor when out-crossed. Hybrid Vigor is about the only FREE input in the production of beef!
? Our line-bred cattle are High in Maternal Traits. Most important for retaining female herd replacements and lifting herd output.
? We have no extreme birth weights and unassisted births has been a priority since my father started the herd in 1969.
 
Quite simply, we produce easy-doing, uniform, problem-free cattle that leave the most important thing of all ………a profit!
We hope you find heifers to suit you in our offering..
