2022 – Red Hill Farms Cross-Ty Bulls
Cross-Ty Bulls
There is good reason this program is going to be called Cross-TY. Ty Jones is involved in every-
thing we do at Red Hill, and he is adventurous. He has heard so much positive family discussion
about crossbreeding and hybrid vigor that he is totally sold on providing Red Hill customers with
the opportunity to reap the economic advantages gained from crossbreeding.
Ty has also observed the tremendous performance advantages of crossbred pigs compared
to purebreds. We will continue to identify cattle from other breeds that adapt to the fescue
environment and management scheme at Red Hill. The reason for these experimental efforts is
to identify breeds that can be used to provide more opportunities to increase the profitability of
our customers. These new genetics are likely to be made available as hybrids or composites;
however, we will not rule out the use of one or two other pure breeds in the future.
South Poll Crossbred Bulls
The South Poll breed is a Composite breed developed by Teddy Gentry at Bent Tree Farms in
AL. Ty and his granddad visited Bent Tree and had the chance to see the outstanding Foundation
herd of this Southern Adaptable breed. After studying the herd, Ty decided to mate some of his
cows to a South Poll bull. Lots 60 and 61 are hybrid bulls from 2 of these matings.
