Stamped with both the Forager and Bonsma Blueprint awards, BB Uncle Tony blends instinctive grazing ability with functional, proven design. He covers country with ease, maximizing available forage in a variety of environments while maintaining condition with little to no supplementation. For forage-driven operations, he brings the kind of natural efficiency that keeps input costs down and productivity high.
Built on Jan Bonsma’s timeless principles of hormonal balance, structure, and true fertility, Uncle Tony’s masculinity and functional build have been carefully evaluated and confirmed by the Bonsma All Breeds Group. Designed to perform in the real world — not just on paper — he offers the kind of genetic foundation that strengthens herds for generations.
