About Us
At Glanmire Murray Grey Stud, our passion for breeding exceptional Murray Grey cattle is deeply rooted in family values and a commitment to excellence. Founded and operated by husband and wife team, Annika and Dan Collins, our stud is more than just a business—it's a way of life that we're proud to share with our two sons, Harry and Angus.
Annika’s affinity for the Murray Grey breed began with spending many of her childhood years around them, inspiring a love above all for their exceptional temperaments. We always knew that we wanted our two sons to become an integral part of the Glanmire operation, and so docility and ease of handling was a major deciding factor when choosing a breed for our stud.
Our family approach ensures that every aspect of the Glanmire Stud receives personal attention and care. From selecting breeding stock to nurturing calves, we work together to maintain the highest standards. This hands-on involvement allows us to truly understand and appreciate each animal in terms of the genetic traits they each contribute to our overall breeding herd.
We believe that our family dynamic brings a unique perspective to our stud, blending traditional values with innovative practices. As we continue to grow and evolve, we remain committed to our core principles of integrity, quality, and sustainable farming practices.
At Glanmire Murray Grey Stud, we're not just raising cattle—we're cultivating a legacy that we hope will inspire future generations of farmers and Murray Grey enthusiasts.
