My name is Kathy better known as "Moomom"
to my friends. Raptor Ridge is located Loomis,
located in Northern California at the base of the foothills of the Sierras. My husband Walt
and I have lived here for over 40 years and
decided to raise some cattle. We were so
impressed with the Pinzgauer breed that we now have
a small but successful herd here at Raptor Ridge
Ranch. We also raise Australian
Shepherds. We raise
purebred Pinzgauer cattle here at Raptor Ridge Ranch since 1984 and sell to
purebred breeders, commercial herds as well as to
4-H and FFA youngsters. At the moment our herd herd
consists of
5
mother cows. We are awaiting our new bull.
Due to illness in the family we did not do AI this
past year. Our past bull BR EXPLOSIVE (AKA "Buddy")
has had some super babies and I have kept two
heifers for to add to the herd. We are also
adding a new bull this year who will be coming to us
from Ben Ames' Mountain View Pinzguaers.
We have always done well with our steers here at
Raptor Ridge. Two of our
past
steers have gone to a repeat buyer who is now a FFA
member. One was high seller at his fair and
several of his steers have been at the top in the
carcass contest and rate of gain. Check out our
Pinzgauer Page for more info on this fine breed
and animals for sale. Visit our
Australian Shepherd page for more on our dogs.
Our 2010 litter out of Hallie and Quincy was
special special. All have gone to their new
homes.
The old barn pictured
here is close to 90 years old now, but still
hangs on.
