Our Story
Killain Angus was established in 2013.
The Killain Angus Stud’s operation is a family run business. Principals Richard and Susie Duddy are connected to generations of cattle breeding and have been based at their property ‘Killain’ for over 20 years.
Richard has been involved in breeding stud cattle from a very young age exhibiting over 50 Royal Champions. Susie, an A Level National Dressage judge, has also owned and bred dressage horses that have represented Australia overseas in the Dressage World Cup and the World Equestrian Games. Their sons, Benjamin and Thomas, have been given the responsibility and exposure not only in the day to day operations but also in the show ring. Both Benjamin and Thomas have enjoyed considerable success in both paraders and junior judging competitions at major shows such as the Angus Youth Roundup, Sydney Royal Easter Show, Rockhampton Beef Week, Melbourne Royal Show and the EKKA.
Genetics
Only The Finest
Only the very best genetics of the SAV program can be found at Killain Angus. We pride ourselves and our program on the continuing relationship we have built with SAV since the beginning. Following the initial importation of frozen embryos, a 19-month-old junior bull, Killain Alaska K18, was awarded at the best Angus Exhibit at the 2016 RAS Sydney Royal Easter Show. He boasted outstanding figures of 986kg, an EMA of 132 sqcm and a rib fat of 12 and 20. Killain Alaska K18 was also a member of the Champion of Champions Hordern Trophy winning Angus team, the first time in the history of the Sydney Royal Easter Show that a debut breed entrant has won this prestigious title.
