Welcome

Welcome to Wattlebray Charbrays situated NE of Chinchilla on the Western Downs, owned and operated by Trevor and Lolita Ford and family who are third generation breeders of Charbray seed stock.

At Wattlebray we are constantly striving to improve our genetics and subsequently pass that genetic gain on to our client`s cattle to help them achieve their own goals.

We have been super busy thus far in 2025, but as they say “do what you love and you won`t work a day in your life.”

While we have enjoyed recent success at the National Sales and in the show ring it hasn’t happened overnight nor by chance. It all started in the early 70’s with Stan Ford`s “Wattlebra” Charolais Stud before Eric & Joan Ford began “EJ Charbrays” in 1977 then the Wattlebray prefix was registered by Trevor in 1995.

Full proven pedigrees and constant selection criteria over these generations using Charbray sires is the reason our C5 & C6 sires will deliver you predictability and consistency every time.

Our emphasis is breeding predictable, consistent and functional Certified Charbrays. Breeding fertile bulls from fertile females through our “calf or carcass policy” and maintaining an efficient productive cow herd is our philosophy for success.

In herd performance recording, scan data, semen testing, J Bas 7 and vaccination with 3 Germ Blood, 3 Day Sickness, 7 in 1 and Botulism is our commitment to insure your sire delivers outstanding results.

 Genetic gain equates to financial gain… Make It Count… With Predictable and Consistent Genetics… Invest in a Wattlebray sire today.

Bulls are offered annually at the National Charbray Bull & Female Sale conducted at CQLX Gracemere in September each year, as well as privately on property.
