Almafi Droughtmaster stud was formed in 2011 by Aleisha Finger. The stud is based at Inga Downs on the Beef Road between Middlemount and Dingo. There the stud operation is backed by a large commercial operation, ensuring the commercial viability of a bulls. The Highlands Sale will be the first and only public auction this year, we are also selling a select group of bulls privately. With a commercial focus we select bulls of sound structure and a good carcass that are easy doing to ensure they can finish on grass. Heavy emphasis is placed on temperament and fertility and anything that doesn’t meet these standards is culled. We look forward to presenting our draft to you and working to build a strong relationship with our clients in the future.

“Oasis Droughtmasters”, owned by the Geddes Family, whose goal it is to produce good quality cattle that will perform in all types of country.

Noel and Robyn have a long history within the cattle industry.  Noel’s family originated from Yaamba, while Robyn’s family from Banana.  Both Noel and Robyn’s grandparents were early pioneers of the Central Queensland area.

Noel and Robyn moved to Emerald in 1990, leasing the property “Innisfree”.  Three years later, in 1993, they bought the property “Oasis”, north-east of Emerald and first started crossing Droughtmaster bulls over their Brahman cows.

In 2002 they founded the “Oasis Droughtmaster Stud” and started selling bulls both locally, and to the Capricorn Droughtmaster Sale at Gracemere.

In 2007, Noel and Robyn bought the property ”Rosels”, on the flood plains just  south of Rockhampton, where their son, Adam now lives with his partner, Shelley.

Redskin Droughtmaster stud operated by the Rutherford family was formed in 1981 with a base herd of santa cross brahman females. Bulls are marketed at the National Sale and the Highlands Sale where we have been vendors since its inception in Clermont in 1991. Temperament, structural soundness, fertility and constitution are the attributes we select for in our herd and over the years we have produced sires which have had an influence within our breed.

Strathfield Droughtmaster Stud is a name that is recognized within the cattle industry as a producer of top quality stock. Strathfield is a family owned operation that takes enormous pride in being a foundation stud, with a reputation forged on honesty, integrity and hard work.We take great pride in the cattle we produce and would like to take this opportunity to invite you to browse through our web-site and gain an insight into the heart of our herd

The stud is now based at “Fletcher’s Awl” in Central Queensland. “Fletcher’s Awl” is a 11,317 hectare property which consists of iron-bark and Bloodwood ranges running onto open black soil plains. It is in a low rainfall belt – one year there may be up to 25 inches of rain, but more commonly it runs in the 10-15 inch bracket.   Droughtmaster cattle excel in this type of country as they have the survivability and adaptability to withstand the good times as well as the bad.

Strathfield Droughtmasters is a moderate sized stud with 200 registered females and 700 commercial droughtmaster cows. We endeavour to breed quality as opposed to quantity.  Our results are true testament to the quality of our cattle with Strathfield setting breed average records and topping vendor averages in the sale ring at multi-vendor sales on a regular basis.

We don’t select for one particular trait – instead we select cattle with a broad range of desirable traits within the Droughtmaster breed.  Strathfield places particular emphasis on selecting cattle with a good temperament, confirmation, fertility, weight gain, mothering and survivability. These cattle are bred in mountainous country where watering points are sparse, therefore they must possess good walking and foraging abilities which gives rise to the stud motto of “survivors when the going gets tough”.

Wajatryn Pastoral Company and Droughtmaster Stud is a family business, owned and worked by Warren and Carolyn Kenny and our family. We both come from four generations of cattle breeding experience. Breeding great cattle has always been the love and livelihood of both of our families.

We sell around 120 bulls a year direct from our Gayndah properties as well as a line of our lead bulls at the Droughtmaster National each year.

We are first time vendors at the Highlands Sale in 2018 and very much appreciate the invitation to offer Wajatryn Bulls at this sale.
