Introduction:

The cattle shown in these photographs are the foundation heifers and breeding dams we have chosen to form the basis of our first breeding herd.

Based on the hardy resilient indigenous Malaysian Zebu, a tropical breed commonly referred to as the KK (Kedah Kelantan) or Lembu KK and the LID (Local Indian Dairy) animal.
