ABOUT GILL RED ANGUS
OUR STORY
Bryan Gill on the history of the ranch and how they breed cattle. (4:52)
THE GILL RANCH HISTORY
The Gill Ranch began in the late 60's when Larry & Janet moved home after Larry got out of the army. In 1979, we bought our first registered Red Angus cattle from the Enid School dispersion. Our foundation herd consisted of mainly Chief bred females, which gave us a great start to the maternal herd we have today. Today the ranch is run by both Bryan and Brent and their families.
OUR PHILOSOPHY & GOALS
From the beginning, our main goal has been to raise a maternal and performance cowherd. We feel that our herd has as much or more performance than any other herd no matter what the breed. We strive to have big-butted bulls and easy keeping cows.
The mature weight of the cows in our herd is around 1400 lbs. -- not too big and not too small. We feel that you need to run what your environment allows you to run, and our cowherd fits right in that puzzle. We consistently sell both bulls and heifers into the dry climates of New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, and Kansas, along with the more wet climates of North and South Carolina. We found that our bigger bodied, easier fleshing type of cattle will work in most environments.
OUR PRIORITY: CUSTOMER PROFITABILITY
Our main priority since we began in 1979 has been to produce the best performance bulls we can so our commercial customers are profitable. We do everything possible to make sure our customers get what their calves are worth when they sell them.
Every fall we nearly wear out our vehicles going to our customers' calf sales and bidding on every Gill sired offspring we can find.
Give us a call or stop in sometime. There is only one thing that we enjoy more than raising Red Angus, and that is visiting with our friends and customers.
