Mission Statement

The mission statement of Red Skye Red Angus is:

  • To promote the red angus breed by providing the best possible genetics in our animals for the angus breeder,
  • To enjoy life,
  • To continue my education, in this case about the fitting and showing of cattle,
  • To meet new and interesting people,
  • To realize a return on my investment, both monetarily and experientially.

The focus of this web site:

  • To acquaint the viewer with the quality of the animals at Red Skye Red Angus.
  • To promote those animals.
  • To use this site to help promote those breeders and producers who we have purchased from or sold to.
  • To recognize Brylor Ranch for providing me the opportunities to meet the goals of my mission statement.
  • To provide a platform to display our photography which is another of our interests.

Being semi retired, but unable to do any heavy or cold weather physical work and still wanting to be involved in agriculture, I was very fortunate that Bryan McKenzie agreed to become associated with me in this endeavour. Hence the inception of Red Skye Red Angus.

We welcome visitors at any time of the year, but if you want to see our cattle, you have to come to the farm in the summer (see contact page for map), or to Brylor's in the winter .

Being good Scots, we are partial to anything Scottish. This explains the sentimental attachment to Angus cattle. (There are many more practical reasons for the choice of which all Angus breeders are aware.) As well, it may explain a preference for the wee dram of the amber. The use of Skye in our name reflects the Isle of Skye in northern Scotland, which is just off the coast from our ancestral home.
