What Others Say

“Strong healthy calves mean a higher percentage from birth to weaning and ultimately more profit in our pocket. Weight equals profit and we are extremely happy with the weights our cattle are attaining.”

“We’ve found Santas to be very productive even through tough times, they’ll always put 100 percent into their calves, we’ve always had good weaners even in the dryer seasons. When the time comes to be growing out to the feeders, they always seem to be able to perform for us in any environment we put them into."

“I like Santas, they’re good all round cattle, they calve easily, they’re terrific mothers, possess great temperament, feed conversion and market suitability and acceptance. They’re low maintenance cattle that perform on good feed but can also handle heat and tough conditions."
