Robert & Moira O’Reilly are the principals of Redgate. Before establishing Redgate in 2003 they ran commercial Poll Herefords (450 breeders) producing steers for the supermarket and grass-fed markets.
The Redgate herd is relatively small in number because the primary focus of our business is producing and selling semen & embryos. We breed the best possible animals we can and then select the ‘best of the best’ for semen & embryo production.
We strive for continuous improvement with every generation of animals.
