Simon and Judy Hennings are continuing the operation of the farm which was established by Simon's parents, Peter and Barbara 25 years ago. With a total herd of 80 head being run on 100 hectares, the focus is to produce seed stock of the highest quality. |

Established as a Black Angus Stud, it was in 1995 that Simon and Judy decided to also start breeding some Red Angus. The focus of the operation is still very much on the Black Angus, however the results achieved to date with the Red Angus have been outstanding, culminating with the highest priced bull at the innaugural Red Angus National. "In our search for excellent stock, Simon has travelled extensively throughout Northern America and Canada to research the influence of overseas sires. Seeing many of the AI sires, their dams and progeny has allowed a carefully selected breeding program to be implemented. the emphasis is always on stock that are structurally sound with a good balanced set of EBV figures. The basis of any good herd is its female lines and Mt Hunter, right from the start, concentrated on purchasing and producing an excellent line of females. Our top females can be seen on this web site. Once you have a good line of females, the good bull calves will follow. Due to the limited acreage and our aim to breed seed stock of the highest quality. Mt Hunter Angus always has bulls, females and embryos for sale." Hope to hear fom you soon Simon and Judy Hennings |
