Fernhill Angus Stud was established in 1998 with purchase of 13 Hazeldean stud heifers and developed with purchases of stud females from Coolana Angus Stud plus Witherswood, ICM and Welcome Swallow Studs. The stud has developed on commercial lines with emphasis on structural soundness, fertility and temperament. There are now 350 stud cows. Except for a handful of late calvers, all females are subjected to AI with follow-up bulls from our breeding program and purchased bulls.
The breeding program is overseen by Dick Whale who is responsible for AI sire selection and selection of sale bulls, bulls for use in the stud and female selection. Liam Cardile performs EMA and IMF scanning and assists with docility scoring and conformation assessment.
