Why with all discrimination against the Nguni’s small size do we persevere in farming with them- because there rewards.
In an arid environment, not knowing when rain fall will come, it is necessary to partner with an animal that can take the punch.
Through good and bad times, the Nguni has rewarded us with excellent fertility statistics,
With an Almost perfect survival rate of offspring and low costs associated with keeping the healthy apart from discrimination factor applied by the market the Nguni has proven to be a pleasure to farm with rewarding us with their placid behaviour, beauty, social behaviour and peace of mind. These animals are fertile and calve easily with mothers protective of their offspring and survive whatever nature throws at them as they are disease and parasite resistant.
We will have our work cut out for us to establish a market for the high quality beef albeit from a smaller carcass. That’s why we farm with Nguni’s.
Warlock, fearless and feisty, he is certainly a force to be reckoned with, although he has such a gentle soul, he protects and defends his cows with poise and ease. Looking forward to seeing this Bull mature into a brilliant Stud.

Een van ons suksesvolste STOET BULLE, met n persoonlkheid wat enige mens sal laat wonder, wat als gaan in n NGUNI bul se verstand aan? Hoe intelligent is hul regtig? EL TORRO, het karakter, is glad nie bang vir uitdagings nie, verdeedig sy koeie en kalwers met n briee bors en handhaaf orde in sy trop op n baie streng manier. Beslis n interessante dier om dop te hou.
Even in the harsh, dry,cold occasionally taken over by cloudy days, misty mornings and rainy nights, the NGUNI comfortably survives, breeds and grazes in a drought struck southern NAMIBIA.
The young bulls putting up a show to impress us, soon to be groomed as STUDDS, what a year its going to be!
gorgeous cattle, they are in breeding season, and we are looking forward to this Christmas
