Thistle Ridge Ranch

Thistle Ridge Ranch, operated by Ben and Carol Tams near Taber, Alberta, manages a multi-generational seedstock program with over 25 years of experience breeding purebred Red Angus, Black Angus, and Charolais cattle. Their philosophy emphasizes structural longevity, calving ease, and natural hoof health, enforcing a strict policy of never trimming feet on their herd bulls. Developed carefully on a balanced backgrounding ration to ensure optimal conditioning without over-fattening, their yearling and two-year-old bulls provide reliable, pasture-ready genetics engineered to last for commercial producers.
