The Maine Anjou cattle originally came from
France near the Anjou & Maine
river valleys. They were a cross of the French
Mancelle breed & the English Durham (Shorthorn)
Breed. The original color was red & white &
the fullblood Maines are still the red &
white color. The Purebred Maine is a product
of crossing with the Angus breed to attain
the black color. Maine Anjou are know for early weight gain & docile temperments plus they have a good frame & big square rumps.
We maintain a
registered
Maine herd of percentage to Purebred black
cattle. We have major sires represented in
our cow herd including- Polled Pursuit, DMCC Excel,
Amtrack, Pistol, Pete, Power Plant,
Smithbuilt, Cunia, Epinal & Wallstreet. Our herdsire is a
Polled Priority son. His first calves have just arrived. They are easy calving, vigorous calves with a great appetite. They are up & nursing soon after they are born, and running around at a few days old, like week old calves. These calves
will make good herdsires for a Maine herd or
commercial herd or great club calves. Most of our
calves shown have placed in the top three &
placed high in carcass class. These calves will be for sale in early fall. We also have fine bred cows for sale. Visitors are
always welcome, just give us a call first.
Please come back and visit again!
