Kingslane Red Angus

the better black alternative

Kingslane Red Angus cattle have the Red Angus advantage having all the attributes of the Angus breed with the red coat colour and good temperament making them the better black alternative.

Our Red Angus produce cattle with high fertility, calving ease and maternal ability, excellent growth and carcase quality but the advantage of good temperament for easy management and the red colour to handle Australia’s heat conditions.

Our Red Angus cattle also have extensive performance recording so that commercial breeders can make cattle selections with the advantage of objective information.

Kingslane Red Angus is currently rated 4.5 stars for Completeness of Performance Herd Rating and is one of the TOP 2 Red Angus herds in Australia with this 4.5 Star rating. Kingslane is proud to be submitting comprehensive recording and measurements of our herd traits to Breedplan to achieve this Silver Standard. This means that ALL cattle sold by Kingslane come with extensive Breedplan EBV’s readily available on the Red Angus Society website.

Our breeding focus is:

  • Low to moderate birthweights with excellent calving ease
  • Fertile and strong mothering ability with high milk production
  • Correct structural conformation
  • High growth rates
  • Excellent carcase qualities including high muscling, good yielding and moderate fat cover
  • Gentle nature and good temperament

The Kingslane stud hosts an annual Red Angus bull sale (also with AuctionsPlus) in February offering top genetics bulls with Breedplan Estimated Breeding Values, trait measurements and pedigrees to aid buyer selections.

All our sale bulls are Zoetis STAR Accredited so that buyers can be sure that our bulls are not carriers of the preventable reproductive diseases including leptospirosis, pestivirus and vibriosis. 

Our herd has the Bovine Johne’s Disease (BJD) status of J-BAS 8 with triennial herd testing.

Sires

We have been selecting Red Angus sires with the best genetics to infuse superior muscling, performance and milk production with sound conformation into our herd by importing semen from leading Red Angus sires from Canada and the USA since 2012.

Sires from leading ranches such as Six Mile Red Angus (Saskatchewan, Canada), Leachman Cattle of Colorado (USA), Bieber Red Angus (South Dakota) and R.A. Brown Ranch (Texas) have made a significant impact on our herd resulting in superior carcase quality, excellent growth and calving ease, improved udder quality and sound conformation.

With the outstanding quality of these introduced sires being used in our Kingslane herd we are now breeding our own leading Red Angus sires which we are retaining to use in our herd. The quality of these bulls is proving to make a real difference to our herd and the breeding values of their progeny.

Kingslane Rutherford R49

Rutherford R49 is our leading young sire as a result of the very successful introduction of American sire HXC Declaration 5504C genetics into our herd. The impact of HXC Declaration 5504C has been very impressive with progeny showing heavy muscling, early maturing, big frame and outstanding performance. Rutherford R49 is a Declaration son with all those attributes and excellent conformation and depth. This bull is showing great promise as a sire to have a great impact on our herd.
