Live Cattle
Angus Beef
The breed takes its name from its place of origin, namely county Angus in Aberdeenshire, North East Scotland, where in the early nineteenth century, it was bred out of the predominantly black cattle of the region, known as “doddies” and “hummlies”. Hugh Watson is considered the founder of the breed.
His favourite bull, called Old Jock, was born in 1842 and given the number “1” in the Scotch Herd Book, which was founded in 1862. His favourite cow, named Old Granny, was born in 1824 and lived to produce 29 calves over her 35-year lifespan.
