Square Meaters the new dimension in premium beef production
Square Meaters are a moderate framed Australian breed of beef cattle. They are perfectly suited to the highly variable Australian temperate climate. They have an ability to hold condition in hard times and flourish in normal conditions.
Their capacity to finish on grass allows breeders to lay claim to the cattle being a sustainable breed under Australian grazing conditions.
CONSISTENT PERFORMERS
Square Meaters were established as a breed to provide premium beef to the domestic market. Early maturity, heavy muscling and even fat cover are the genetic traits that allow the breed to consistently provide 8 to 9 month weaners of 225 – 275 kgs or 12 to 14 month yearlings of 380 – 420 kgs off grass, making them an ideal fit with the domestic market specifications and pasture fed assurance certification.

Seeing any Square Meaters bull take out the top sash for British Breeds at any show is a great achievement for the breed.
Well done to all the connections of Urban Cowboy and keep breeding and achieving these outstanding results.
#squaremeaters #qualityproduct #butchercarcasses #moderateframedWhat a great year 2024 has been to start again in the cattle world (albeit mainly as a spectator). My young bull Vesco Urban Cowboy has had a wonderful show season, beginning with Champion Square Meaters Bull calf at Toowoomba Royal show followed by Junior Champion British bull at Lowood, then at Samford the Junior and also the Grand Champion British breed bull, next was Junior Champion Square Meaters bull at Kilcoy and finally "the icing on the cake " was Urban Cowboy winning the Junior and also the Grand Champion Square Meaters bull at the Brisbane RNA. Urban Cowboy was prepared by Karla Cannon and paraded by Ella Cannon. The rapport between this 11 year old girl and the young Urban Cowboy is a joy to see. My thanks to you both. A special "thank you" also to Troy Nuttridge of TLC Fitting Service, Thank you for all your help and your professional clipping that ensured that Urban Cowboy always looked his best at every outing.
