Three R Show Cattle

Three R Show Cattle, Limousin cattle, Olpe, Kansas, in the Flint Hills near Emporia, are known for careful herd management and consistent bloodlines. Michael Ratcliff has bred Limousin cattle for over fifteen years and holds membership in the American Limousin Association, with regular veterinary health screenings for the herd. Calves graze on rotational pastures and receive daily handling from weaning onward to promote calm temperaments.

The farm operates a closed herd and follows balanced EPD selection to support both structural soundness and performance. Several animals have placed at regional and state-level fairs, reflecting emphasis on muscle development and overall form. Their breeding program combines proven dam lines with performance-tested bulls for reliability across commercial and show ring settings.

Feeding protocols emphasize high-quality forages supplemented with trace minerals to maintain herd vitality during all seasons. The farm’s rolling pastures and barn facilities offer comfortable shelter and ample grazing throughout the year.
