The Shaw's

Cleo - Greg - Janel - Sam - Angie - Tucker
Shaw Cattle Company is a second and third generation family owned and operated seed stock operation dating back 60 years.  Greg and Cleo Shaw operate the ranch located in southwest Idaho , about 35 miles west of Boise , along with sons & daughters-in-law, Sam & Janel and Tucker & Angie. 

 Shaw Cattle Company’s sole form of income is cattle/bulls, raising Horned & Polled Herefords, Black Angus and Red Angus cattle - selling approximately 300 bulls annually by auction and private treaty.  We strive to raise sound, functional, fertile, high performance bulls for the western rancher while selecting the most proven, high accuracy herd sires for the program.

It all started when Tom Shaw, Greg's dad, received a registered Hereford heifer as a graduation present in 1946.  Greg joined the family operation in 1968 and married Cleo in 1970.  Greg and Cleo remained in business with his family (Shaw Hereford Ranch) until January 1988, when they split from the original corporation to form Shaw Cattle Co.  They started raising Red Angus in 1990 to meet customer demand.  With the help of son, Sam, they made the decision to add Black Angus breeding stock in 1997.  Sam graduated from the University of Idaho in the fall of 1999 and moved home to expand the extensive AI and records program on all breeds.  Tucker moved his family back to the family operation from Fargo , North Dakota in June of 2003 in an effort to raise his children with an agriculture background.

Currently there are four generations of Shaw's living on the ranch – right where Greg grew up.  In fact, Greg and Cleo live in the same house he grew up in, although the silverware is in a different drawer than where his mother used to keep it!
