Our Stud & Genetics

A seedstock program built on records, not just reputation.

Proven bloodlines, recorded breeding values, and sires selected for marbling fineness, growth and quiet temperament.

Our genetics are the heart of Butler Grazing. Every animal in the stud is recorded, and every sire we stand is selected to move the herd forward, on the traits that matter to producers and to the premium beef supply chain alike.

What we breed for

  • Marbling fineness: the defining trait of premium Wagyu.
  • Growth & carcase: cattle that finish efficiently to specification.
  • Calving ease & structure: sound, functional, long-lasting females.
  • Temperament: quiet cattle that handle and finish better.

Recorded & transparent

Each sire carries a full bloodline and current estimated breeding values (EBVs). We’re happy to share progeny records and carcase data so you can buy with confidence.
