Texas Prime Cattle Company
We want you to succeed in your Wagyu investment by providing you with all the data available to ensure you have the tools to make an educated purchase selection.
OUR HISTORY
We are the 4th generation of lifelong ranchers. We live and work on our ranch in rural DeWitt County in south-central Texas.
Since first sampling Wagyu beef some 9 years ago, we quickly realized that Wagyu beef will be the future of beef in Texas. Over the past two years, interest in the breed has quadrupled. We specialize in Full Blood Wagyu top-quality cattle. NOTHING less than Prime.
Our cattle are foundation cattle, and many are direct descendants of the very first Japanese Wagyu in America. The matrons of our herd were purchased from the Legendary Kay Ranch and M6 Ranch in Texas. We also have cattle originating from the Bar V Ranch in Kansas. From that, our herd has been enlarged through the addition of high-value Embryo Transfer births. Most of our embryo births have been with high-value embryos initially costing more than $3000.
OUR RANCH
We live with our cattle. We lay eyes on them at least twice a day. They are hand-fed calm animals, each with distinct personalities. Many are halter trained, and all allow you to walk up to them without being startled.
We take care of our cattle, and in return, we expect them to perform. All of our calves have a free choice of diet of 14.5% creep. This blend is specially designed for Wagyu cattle. All calves remain with their dams until they are 210 days old. All Calves are Vaccinated and DO NOT RECEIVE NON-THERAPEUTIC ANTIBIOTICS.
All cattle are pasture-raised on a diet of Cheyenne and Bermuda. Our entire ranch is fertilized organically on an annual basis. Diets are supplemented with recommendations from Texas A&M after annual forage samples are completed.
SECURITY
To protect our valuable herd, our entire ranch is fenced with net wire and protected with instant cloud video surveillance via whole-ranch WIFI. All of our cattle are RFID tagged at birth and branded with our freeze brand.
Data procedures
We use the latest technology to capture data on our animals that help us make better breeding decisions. We are consistently analyzing data supplied by our breed associations to improve our herd. We do not manipulate or hide data on our herd. We publish it all so you can make a better-informed decision. You can Trust our data. We DO NOT purchase animals that have no published data.
We AI our own cattle on the ranch using fixed-time AI protocols. We synchronize our cattle on our ranch to reduce stress. We are a BQA-certified ranch, and our cattle are easy to handle. We utilize the services of a certified Embryologist for embryo transfers.
ASSOCIATIONS
All of our cattle are registered with the American Wagyu Association as well as with the Australian Wagyu Association, and we are active members of the Texas Wagyu Association.
Instead of competing with other breeders, we choose to work with them. We want our partners to be successful. By making them successful we are also successful.
