Walker Angus has over 100 Registered Angus cows on 400 acres of pasture and sell grass-fed naturally raised freezer beef and registered angus seedstock.

Walker Angus is 45 minutes from Branson and Springfield and 3.5 hours from Saint Louis.

As our neighbor’s say: “we have really nice cows”

Our cows are influenced by the addition of Ohlde cattle company genetics along with our own proprietary blend of what works…

We are lazy enough that we prefer that the cow work for us instead of us for them.

No herbicides and chemical fertilizers on our pastures.

No hormone implants or fed antibiotics used on our cattle.

We strive to produce high quality natural  grassfed beef for Missouri.

We can supply you with not only grassfed beef by the quarter, half or whole, but breeding stock to meet your own needs for the moderate grass powered cow.

Our cows are run in a no frills manner, they are never fed grain, only grass and hay for part of the winter.  We extend the grazing season as much as possible, by managing our grass and trying to graze year round.

We start calving in March on Fescue, on clean pastures so the calves get off to a good start.

We also calve in the fall, starting in September.  This is better for the new babies and the cows, and cows were meant as ruminants to eat grass, not grain.

Grass-fed beef can be a better eating experience than grain-fed if done right and we feel that we do it right!

Grassfed beef is a growing segment of the food industry, for a number of reasons.  Here are mine:

  1. The Cattle are antibiotic, hormone, and chemical free.  When you choose Walker Angus grassfed beef, you are choosing clean food.
  1. The Cattle are never confined, they enjoy the type of life they were designed to have.
  1. The cattle are treated humanely, we never use hotshots or any force to work our cattle and our facilities are designed to work cattle in a low stress environment.
  1. The beef that results is Good!

If you are looking for breeding Bulls, these are our standards:

  1.  The calf has to be born in the first half of the calf crop.
  2. He has to weigh over 600 lbs. out of a 3 year old cow or above,,, 550 out of a 2 year old.  This is off of fescue pasture,, no creep feeding.
  3. Less than 85 lbs birthweight.  (we actually weigh our calves at birth, unlike many purebred breeders who’s calves always weigh 75 lbs. 🙂
  4. Great disposition.
  5. I like the cow, because she does her job well!
  6. Passes a Breeding Soundness exam as a yearling with flying colors.
