Originally from a dual purpose background, the British White is impressively milky and strong in all maternal traits. Their medium to large frame allows them the depth to grow a calf well and calve it easily, while their naturally good feet and legs mean that they are able to remain fit to keep breeding well into their teens.

British White bulls are active, naturally polled and docile, and many work to a great age. They leave easily calved, vigorous offspring which can forage well on every type of grassland, maturing into an animal which produces a lean, marbled carcase of the finest quality beef when finished.
