We are a family run business at Manypeaks in Western Australia and have been passionate about breeding cattle since 1971. Our business runs a 2200 head cow herd across 7000 ha which includes 500 registered Koojan Hills Angus cows, a registered Murray Grey herd as well as a 1500 head commercial herd. We also run a 1500 head Dohne ewe flock, mating them to White Suffolk rams to target the prime lamb market.

Our commercial cattle herd primarily produces grass fed cattle for the supermarket trade. We consign the bulk of our young cattle to Woolworths as 17-19 month olds targeting 290 - 300 kg carcass weights .

 
 

We pride ourselves on maintaining extremely high standards in our commercial herd and place particular emphasis on breeding bulls that target fellow commercial operations. Our objective is to breed easy care, maternal daughters with longevity, fertility and do-ability and sons that perform in grass fed systems with an emphasis on early growth, thickness and temperament.

Each year Koojan Hills bulls are offered in our annual on-property bull sale held in February. The bulls are comprehensively recorded on breedplan and are entirely grass fed.
