Devon cattle had an early start here in the U.S., a shipment of “red cattle’ brought from England in 1623 was more than likely what we now call the “Devon” breed. Devons have numerous advantages in today’s agricultural industry that can put you ahead of the competition on multiple levels. Devons are first and always docile which can lead to higher gains and fewer problems from stress. Devons are inherently fertile, are generally moderate in size and when managed properly require few or no outside inputs, are known for having small vigorous calves, produce some of the finest and highest grading beef in multiple production modes (excelling in forage based systems hence our motto: “Supreme Beef on Grass”) and can handle some of the most extreme climates from sweltering Texas summers to frigid Montana winters and many situations in between.
