Lazy G Lowline is located Yelm, Washington, about 75 miles south of Seattle. Our neighbors initially introduced us to Australian Lowline Angus. They were visiting relatives in Iowa when they heard about a new breed of beef cattle. They couldn’t wait to come home and share this information about these “miniature Angus” cattle.

After researching this breed we found that they weren’t really miniature Angus. They are the true ‘belt buckle’ Angus from the mid 20th century. They are the right size for the small acreage owner and the commercial market at approximately 60% the size of modern Angus. Lowline cattle are 100% Aberdeen Angus.

With their feed requirements averaging 30% less than larger sized cattle, their stocking rate is greater per acre and their ability to finish on grass without any corn or grain supplement makes them the beef breed of the future. These genetics are very attractive to the commercial rancher who wants to downsize frame scores; using Lowline bulls bring frame scores down in one generation where other breeds may take 2-3 generations to reach the same final frame score. Plus it makes his herd more feed efficient, ultimately affecting the bottom line.

Today we have a very diverse herd, including the first Fullblood Red Lowline cattle in the U.S. and the first to be registered in the American Lowline Registry. Red is by far the most popular color for cattle in the world because of its ability to reflect heat.

We feel that the Red Fullblood Lowline cattle are an extremely valuable addition to this breed. We have received a tremendous amount of interest in these red genetics from commercial cattlemen.

The majority of our herd consists of some outstanding females imported from Australia with outcross genetics not found in the U.S.. They have all been bred to Bluey, our red bull. Calves from this breeding will be either black hair with the Red gene or, in some cases, will be red.

We offer a few select individuals from time to time that may not be listed on our sale page.

We also offer breeding packages of Red genetics, so check out our sale page or contact us directly through our online contact form.
