Registered Black Angus · Warman, Saskatchewan

Proven genetics, raised on the Saskatchewan horizon.

A disciplined seedstock program built on proven maternal lines — Coleman Donna, Lassie and Erica — crossed with powerful outcross sires to produce balanced bulls and feminine females that breed true.

Our Program

A consistent, well-balanced cow herd — built one generation at a time.

At Horizon Cattle Company we strive to build a consistent well-balanced cow herd that produces both masculine bulls and feminine females. We don’t chase any particular EPD or trend other than continuous improvement and herd uniformity. We are continually evaluating each cow and determining how to make their calves more complete each and every year with incremental improvements.

We started our herd with the proven maternal greatness from the Coleman Donna, Lassie 113 of McCumber and Bar-E-L Erica A74 genetics. However, our entire cow herd nearly stems from Coleman Donna 732, a full sister to the famous Coleman Donna 714. Each original Coleman cow in the herd also goes back to Charlo, known for producing wide based, low birth, maternal cattle that are moderate and very efficient on grass and forage environments.

We strive to keep our bloodlines tight and focus our herd around proven females, sires and genetic crosses that have stood the test of time and continually churn out amazing cattle year after year. There is little guess work with our matings, and this process creates a uniform herd that produces a very consistent Angus cow from the bottom to the top.

“Our goal is to produce balanced black angus cattle that don’t lean too far one way or the other.”

Bloodlines

Outcross power crossed to proven maternal lines.

You will also notice our genetics incorporate unique outcross bloodlines, like Copenhagen (older Jorgenson genetics) and the powerful three-dimensional Greenvale bulls. This decision was made to offer you outcross genetics with hybrid vigor that are hard to find in the Angus breed and compliment your existing cow herd.

Crossing powerful outcross genetics like Greenvale and Copenhagen to feed efficient maternal lines such as Donna, Miss Wix, Lassie and Erica create a very unique blend and balance that is hard to find and replicate in the Angus breed.
