 
Woodston Aphrodite J089 Pedigree
The Woodston Herd of Aberdeen Angus was formed in 1999 wth
the purchase of the Aberkirk herd from Ludlow Shropshire. A
group of ten animals which went back to Jalta of Oaken
Manor, who in turn went back to Junerica of Bega. Additions
have been added from the herd dispersal of Stoddard Angus
and more recently of Warren H Marshall's Cymru Herd.
In 2008 and 2009 3 Glympton Cows were added to the herd.
Woodston Angus in 2010 now stands at 16 pedigree cows
which are run extensively on the 100 acres of permanent
pasture at Woodston they are managed as a low maintenance
herd, calving in the Spring, with dry cows outwintered on a
woodchip corral.
2010 sees the two changes to the Woodston Herd entering
into the biobest health scheme, which so far has returned
good results and begining to show our own progeny.
The aim of the
herd is to breed a more traditional type of bull,
concentrating on confirmation. The amount of Canadian breeding
within the herd provides a good sized bull, with typical 500
day weighs about 700kg
