Eagles Nest Shorthorns

Eagles Nest Shorthorns, a Shorthorn cattle farm in Portland, TN, is located in Sumner County in Middle Tennessee near Nashville. Owner Bobby Halcomb has been raising shorthorns for several years and follows the guidelines of the American Shorthorn Association to ensure strong genetics and sound health. All cattle undergo regular veterinary checkups, vaccinations, and nutritional evaluations to support steady growth.

Herds graze on managed pastures and are handled daily to promote calm temperaments and easy adaptation to new environments. Eagles Nest animals often appear at local county fairs and livestock shows, where they earn recognition for their balanced conformation and steady disposition. Family members live on the farm, which allows close monitoring of calf development and easy access to care year-round. Selective sire evaluation emphasizes maternal traits and gentle temperament, supporting both herd well-being and practical handling. New owners receive guidance on pasture management and calf nutrition to support a smooth transition.
