Foundation Female

Helping The Environment 

At South Valley Shorthorns we are actively trying to help the environment by doing our part of eliminating human waste.  Our cows enjoy various fruits and vegetables which would otherwise go to landfills.

South Valley Crocus Nellie May 17E

Bill told me before he passed away to look after Nellie May as she is your best cow to date.  I strongly feel that her capacity and ease of fleshing are second to none.  She has had her calves all go on to be breeding stock or retained in my program.  Nellie May is being flushed spring 2026.

South Valley Beauty Keri Dawn

When my brother dispersed his herd I managed to procure one of my favourite cows,  South Valley Beauty Dawn 7G her first daughter is even better, as a three year old she has a heifer now residing at Keleman's in SK.  Her second calf a white bull is outstanding!

South Valley Crocus Katie May

The first female to be shown by South Valley Shorthorns since we were in 4H.  Decades of waiting and we have Katie May and she had a very successful run as a heifer calf and yearling.  She is the going to be one of the most important building blocks in the South Valley program.  Her daughter by Diamond Hendrix 2H is one of my very favourites.

South Valley Thornham Crocus

The pride I feel in this female is hard to fathom.  She is a perfect uddered, feminine female that now is owned by Hatfield Shorthorns.  She will see continued influence in our program through embryo transfer.  I have also retained her dam, granddam and maternal sister. I've retained a flush out of "Princess"
