Long Lake Shorthorns

Clythe Mane Flora 3F This is a female who always gets noticed - even in her ranchiest attire! She is often referred to as an old style Shorthorn, which is one of the things we love most about her. She is stout made, feminine, with a beautiful udder - and fancy to boot! She is a personal favourite around here. She is bred to Glenford Crimson 26G for a 2021 calf - we are anxiously waiting!

ET heifer calves from our current calf crop. We’re excited about the future with these girls! Sire: Hill Haven Firestorm 28C Dam: HC Cherry Mist 63C

We survived the blast of nasty March weather & calves are still hitting the ground at a quick pace. Some snaps from around the ranch these days.

Winter has returned, and calves are hitting the ground like crazy

Muridale Dora 39G, who we purchased in the 2020 Shorthorn Alliance Sale, with her bull calf by Studer’s Die Hard. It’s been a year of mostly heifer calves for us, so we are extra happy about the arrival of this little guy!

We would like to thank everyone who showed interest in our 2021 bull offering - and a special thank you to those who purchased from us! We are thrilled when producers place their confidence in our program & our genetics. We are already looking forward to our 2022 offering - we have some exciting prospects on the ground in our current calf crop!

Happy New Year! All the best to everyone in 2021. 2020 was certainly a different year - we're glad to see 2021 arrive & we look forward to what this new year has in store (and we're all especially hoping we can head back to the show ring!) We have some 2 year old bulls posted in our For Sale album here, and on our website - stay tuned for more sale bulls (including updated photos), as well as calving updates, etc.!

A fancy bred heifer sired by HC Drum Major 11D. This girl was the surprise result of a Black Angus heifer (whose dam was a solid red Shorthorn), crossed with Drum Major.

We’ve had a busy few days here at LLS! In addition to the main herd being moved to their next phase of grazing, the bull calves are now separated off & have settled nicely into their new pen. We have a pretty exciting group! Sires include HC Drum Major 11D, Bayview Unique K11, Crooked Post Stockman 4Z, and more.
