Lowline Black Angus

Tiller Ranch is about 3000 feet elevation located in Tiller, Oregon.  Currently, our ranch is specializing in raising Lowline Black Angus.  Lowline Black Angus are growing in popularity throughout the United States because they are small, docile, and are able to finished on grass with no grain supplements.  Lowline Black Angus were developed to  produce better Black Angus.  They are bred smaller to reduced feed consumption, but not sacrificing the superior quality of the black angus beef if not better.  Here is a link comparing other breed of cattle in regards to beef production:  http://www.carolscows.com/why-lowlines.html

Our Main Bull lineage came from one of the Top 10 Lowline Bull that have influence the lowline breed in it's first decade in the United States. He was sired by Bar J Ponderosa OK 13, a 2002 Reservve National Champion Bull.  To date, OK 13 has produced about 104 offspring. Refer to "The Lowline Ledger Winter 2009"
