Updates from the WWA

Well as the Holdiay season races forward we are all probably knee deep in preparations for the coming events.  We just wanted to update and remind our members of a few items.  Remember that our memberships run from January through December.  If you have not done so you might take this time to send your renewal into the office in Texas before you forget.

We want to welcome our newly elected Board Member, Derrick Passey of Raymond, Alberta,  Canada.  We will be introducing Derrick here at Watusicattle.com with a farm focus feature in the next few weeks.  We have posted multiple of his charming photos over the past few years here on the website.  You can search through the posts to see them.

The World Watusi Association would like to wish Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of our members and enthusiasts.  Keep warm and safe.

Herds and Farms

Does not know he is cattle…

WWA member Joy Rider of Black Walnut Springs farm in Highlandville, Missouri submitted this photo with the following caption:  “BWS Holy Cody is a 2011 model (by Sarah Serendipity and TW Booger).  This is the little guy I brought to your place at just a few days old that Dianna Rickard used in her petting zoo that season.  He’ll be one of my young herd sires for the 2014 breeding season IF we can convince him he’s a watusi.” This great young prospect has already been to five Watusi farms, Black Walnut Springs two times, Fantasy Corral in Woodville, Wisconsin, Matt Moffat of Piedmont, Oklahoma and Liar’s Lake in Sparta, Missouri and now Joy expects him to go to work.

Matt and Laura Moffat of Piedmont, Oklahoma have only been in the Watusi world for the last two years.  They submitted some photos of a portion of their herd not only to brag, but also to exhibit the temperament that can be seen in Watusi.   They are raising their two daughters, Reese and Gentry Rose that they are raising right with the cattle and now they are working on number three of their own.  Our next generation of Watusi enthusiasts in the making.
