looking for long horn cattle
Jan 5, 2013 11:48:30 #
UHH's I live in Virginia Beach VA and am looking for a farm that has long horns that I can photograph. I will drive a ways to do so, always looking for an excuse for a road trip. I searched the net and it does return a listing in Va Beach but no one ever answers.
If anyone knows where I can find some please let me know. Either here or PM
Happy New Year

This may be your best chance. Fort Worth holds a longhorn cattle drive on a daily basis.

If you make it to Fort Worth, be sure to come to Dallas to see an old time longhorn drive in bronze. Truly worth seeing and photographing.

Yep!There are a few that come down to the river to drink and soak up the sun next to the campground in the Roosevelt NP North in ND and a good size herd in the Tallgrass prairie Preserve in Oklahoma near the border with Kansas along with a 2500 animal Bison herd but I suspect you were looking for something a bit closer. Not a clue!

There are some ranches in South Carolina:

I know you wouldn't travel this far, but there is a Texas long horn ranch near Charter's Towers in northern Queensland, Australia. It is the only long horn ranch in the Southern Hemisphere & I believe it runs about 8,000 head.

We have a ranch just south of Dayton that has them. Hopefully this spring will get a chance to stop in and visit.

Sorry Gary I don't have an address yet...its just south of Middletowne right off of I75. Next time I'm down that way I'll stop in and get permission...and go from there.

We have a friend who raises them. His ranch is in Franklin. When I see them again (hopefully soon), I will ask if they would mind a photographer taking pix of their LH's.

There is a farm near me that has longhorns, I tried a few days ago to get some shots, but the weather isn't good.
