Our cattle have to be quiet as my parents and our children all work with the cattle. They have to perform on a stud, and most importantly, on a commercial level. Our females have to produce a calf every year, calving at 2 years until at least 10 years old. They have to have a good temperament, good milk, feet, growth, structure, ease of calving and doing ability. They have to be hardy enough to cope through our long cold winters and through droughts. We have found that the Speckle Parks have all these attributes. We are so impressed with the breed.
