One of our top priorities is to work cattle calmly and safely. We have invested in infrastructure designed to ensure the safety of both our team and the animals. This careful approach helps keep the cattle calm and prevents them from associating handling with stress or fear. As a result, we can provide timely vaccinations and necessary health treatments efficiently and effectively, promoting the overall well-being of our herd.
At Aires-Hill Farm, we prioritize the well-being of our animals through responsible and attentive care. Our approach balances providing essential support with encouraging natural resilience. We ensure our cattle receive quality nutrition, shelter, and medical attention while fostering their ability to adapt and thrive independently across diverse environments. This method promotes healthy, robust livestock capable of coping with varying conditions without overprotection.
At Aires-Hill Farm, we set high standards for our seedstock herd because what doesn’t work in our herd doesn’t belong in yours. We practice heavy culling to ensure only the strongest, healthiest, and most productive animals remain. Our breeding program relies exclusively on 100% artificial insemination within a tight breeding window, allowing us to maintain precise genetic control and uniformity.
Maternal traits are a critical focus; we expect our mommas to raise their own calves successfully. To monitor progress and make informed decisions, we record weights at birth, weaning, and any time the cattle come through the chute—whether for vaccinations, fly control, or banding. Accurate, consistent measurement is key because you cannot improve what you do not measure.
All gathered data is thoroughly analyzed, and only the best animals are retained as replacements. This rigorous approach ensures we continue to deliver superior genetics that meet your expectations and improve your herd’s performance.
