About Us

divider
Bulliac Angus has it's home base and bull preparation unit at "Wandaloo" and "Wilga Dale" East of Miles, Queensland.  

The Bulliac cow herd consists of several production units owned by the Hill and Bidgood Families.  The cows are run on various owned and agistment blocks at Miles, Kentucky and Gympie.

The core breeding direction remains the same as set by Ben Hill, to produce cattle which suit a variety of environments; are functional in type and suitable for multiple market end points.  Bryan Bidgood and Marg Will as well as other family members, have input with Ben in evaluating potential sires to be considered and used.  Calves produced by Bulliac are numbered to identify place and group / location to weaning.  At weaning all bull calves go to Miles to grow out and develop, season depending. 

All cattle are reared under commercial conditions – that’s why we say they are “The Right Angus”.

The whole reason we are able to make such a statement is due to client feedback and our own knowledge of how our cow herd perform year after year.

We could produce and make claims of having the heaviest bulls, highest calving percentage, tightest calving period or highest carcase numbers, by drastically increasing inputs. But we believe these factors have little to do with bull longevity or performance in the real world.

Bulliac Angus is about achieving optimal production with cost effective and relevant inputs in the environment in which we live and operate.

Our cows run on pasture year round (if you can call our grasses and herbage at times that’s a fair stretch) with some loose lick / minerals. We believe that in doing this the calves learn to forage while at their mothers side, thus setting them up for the rest of their lives. Our bulls are supplemented with a pellet ration but also continue to forage in grass paddocks during this time.

With the industry going strongly at the moment we still believe it is important to maintain a herd of cattle which are suited to the environment in which they are most likely to run. If our clients all had year round crops and irrigation, then our production focus would change!

Don’t let the fact that we show cattle fool you into thinking this is a pampered herd of cows. We have cut the heads of any of our show cows who don’t go on to perform in the herd and under our general grazing conditions after their show careers. We also have plenty of proof that our show bulls still go out and live long productive lives, that’s how we have bred and fed them and wouldn’t tolerate it any other way.
