OUR PROMISE TO YOU:  We pride ourselves in providing the best possible selection of British White cattle.  We strive quality, not quantity!  We guarantee the sire and dam on your animal's papers when they have an RLC Farms name attached!  Our bulls are only with the group they will breed and if there was ever any doubt (say one got loose) we would get them DNA tested.  This only happened one time and even though we actually saw her being bred to the bull she "snuck" over to, we still DNA tested as we have a guarantee.  We keep watch over these cattle closely and try to see the pasture breeding as much as possible.  We  check our cattle many times a day for calves and keep accurate records.  We have a closed herd except we try to purchase a new heifer or bred cow here and there.  Our herd has a hayfield buffer away from the other herd of cattle near us, and they are not allowed to graze near those cattle.  Our cattle are grass fed (and grass hay in the winter) and the calves may get a supplement after weaning up to one year old.  We do not use any antibiotics and we do not spray our hayfields with any chemicals.  The heifers will, however, get their brucellosis shots.  Our cattle are on a strict mineral supplement which keeps them healthy. Last, and we feel very important about, our cattle are very happy, healthy, friendly cattle and some even answer to their names!

A little about our start in the British White cattle business . . . RLC Farms started out with a few Herefords and two Scottish Highlanders.  We needed a bull so we thought we should see if we could find one online . . . why not, you find anything online, right?  We thought we would use the bull then bring him to the sales barn.   We managed to get into a site that had these unusual British White cattle and thought if we were going to have cattle, that is what we should have.  They are so cool looking!  Long story short, we ended up purchasing our first two British Whites from Greenwood Farms in Missouri and it was a cow/calf pair, not even a bull.  It was an addiction after that and, well, we had 12 horses and quickly went down to no horses.  No one ever took the time to ride them much, but they were relaxing to hang out with.  No way did we ever think we would have pet cows and actually be able to hang out with them!!!  We have built our herd to now only having American Fullblood calves!!!

We are so proud to show anyone these cattle. Everyone that comes to the farm loves them, thinks they are beautiful and can't believe you can go up to them and pet them.

Feel free to visit us anytime!
