Scott Stock Farm Ltd.

About

Scott Stock Farm (SSF) is a family run Purebred Angus operation with both Black and Red Angus genetics. The Scott family have been breeding Angus cattle for nearly 30 years. It is owned by Jonathan and Camille Scott along with their children; daughter Shelby and son Bow. Jonathan’s parents, Earl and Debra Scott are still a big part of everyday operations and offer knowledgeable advise. SSF consists of 300 mother cows.

We believe in using EPD’s as one of our selection tools for picking out top genetics. Along with performance data we examine each animal we are buying or selling to ensure it has the following top 5 traits: overall eye appeal and Angus Characteristics, thickness, structurally sound feet and legs, length of body and fleshing ability. We avoid single trait selection by using a range of selection tools.

Artificial Insemination (AI) is a very big part of our breeding program. We AI all our cows on their first cycle to some of the top AI sires in North America and then they are kicked out with our selected herd sires that we have purchased. Although AI is very time consuming we feel it allows us to bring in new proven genetics with high accuracies. We time breed our heifers each year and the cows are bred on natural heat.
