Traditional Hereford Cattle

Welcome to the Aeron herd of rare breed traditional Hereford cattle. Traditional Hereford cattle are famed for producing superb marbled beef from grass and forage – ideal for the organic, environmentally sustainable farming system here at Treberfedd.

Our own 'Aeron Herd' was established in 2005 and we now have 35 pedigree cows, as well as traditional Hereford Bulls and young stock. At Treberfedd, we’re helping to preserve this ancient native breed with help from the Rare Breeds Survival Trust (RBST). We have used traditional hereford bull semen from the RBST to breed calves from some of the best pure british hereford sires of the 1960's and 1970's.

Our current stock bull is the prize winning 'Llandinabo Comet' who as a 2 year old was champion traditional hereford at the Three Counties Show. Comet has superb length and conformation and we're looking forward to seeing his calves in 2011. 

We usually have traditional hereford breeding stock for sale. Visitors are always welcome (please telephone or email first) tel Farm Manager Jack Cockburn on 01570 470672 email info@treberfedd.co.uk

Traditional Hereford's are medium-sized cattle, red in colour with short curved horns and a ‘beefy’ build (if you’ll pardon the pun). We don’t remove our cows’ horns, because we’re dedicated to rearing cattle in as natural a way as possible. Ideal for smallholders, conservation grazing and quality beef production the breed is well known for being docile and easy to handle. Traditional Hereford cattle are superbly efficient at converting grass into excellent quality beef.
