Red Top Shorthorns

Red Top Shorthorns is a shorthorn cattle breeder in Fremont, MI in West Michigan near Grand Rapids. The farm has been raising shorthorn cattle for generations and maintains membership in the American Shorthorn association. All breeding stock undergoes routine herd health evaluations, genetic screening for key traits and vaccination protocols to support robust animals.

Cattle graze on rotational, well-drained pastures supplemented with a mineral balancer, and calves are handled from birth and weaned on pasture to encourage natural growth. By integrating daily handling and stable social groups, they foster calm temperaments suited for diverse farm settings. Several of their bulls have sired championship offspring at regional livestock shows and county fairs.

A balanced diet, spacious shelters and environmental stewardship with native forage plantings reflect the farm’s steady approach to animal welfare. As a family-run operation, they value honesty in breeding goals and long-term relationships with fellow cattle enthusiasts.
