From the Pasture with Hired Hand

The idea of RP3 Cattle Co started when I purchased the property to build a house and raise my two boys on open land outside of a traditional neighborhood. My goal for the business even though it's part time and more of a hobby is to breed the best conformationally correct Texas longhorn we can. Yes, we want the “Long” Horns but we also want the animal to be correct and serve a purpose that is growing good healthy grass-fed beef! Teaching our kids to get out and see how this works and having room to roam makes its all worth it to me even if we never make a dime!

Today we're talking with Buster Butler from Butler Texas Longhorns. At Butler Texas Longhorns they focus on raising top-quality registered Longhorn cattle. They pay distinct attention to color, face, structural correctness, horn shape, horn length, and a cow’s ability to stay in good shape. They view a cow with excellent conformation as one that raises a fat calf annually on a predominantly grass diet, and we judge our cattle greatly by the quality of the calves they raise. These qualities are what set the breed apart, and they are excited to share the future of their herd with you.
