Welcome to the new Chatham Belgian Blue Website
The Chatham herd of Belgian Blues was founded in 1987, initially using a few straws of semen on the commercial herd. The benefits of this new breed were immediately obvious- the high-grade carcasses of saleable lean meat were found to be in keen demand at a premium price. The short gestation period and docile temperament of the Belgian Blue were some of the deciding factors in the establishment of this herd. Pedigree embryos and heifers were soon purchased and proved to be a successful foundation for the 20 strong cow herd today.
As pedigree breeders our goals have been to produce structurally correct bulls with strength and conformation, which are much sought after as terminal sires in the dairy and suckler herds within the UK and Ireland.
Visitors welcome- where quality counts!
