About Us
How we got started!!
We got started in the Longhorn business when Joel got his first longhorn for his high school graduation present in May of 2002. We named her T-Biscuit. Joel went back and bought two more longhorns. We named them Frostie and Ruby Red.
Becoming a Member
We then became a member of the Texas Longhorn Breeder Association of America (TLBAA) in March of 2003 and have been ever since. We beccame a member of the International Texas Longhorn Association (ITLA) in December of 2018. We became a member of the East Texas Longhorn Association in the summer of 2011.
We had a steer born on Glada's birthday on April 5, 2004. We named him Measles Revenge and we turned him into a riding steer. We take him to parades, parties, and other special events. He has become the face of Norris Longhorn Ranch.
This Unique Breed!!!
This breed of cattle is known for it's characteristic of horns, which can extend up to or over 120" for steers and exceptional for cows and bulls, in the 70" to 80". The long legs and hard hoofs make them the ideal trail cattle.
They are very intelligent, easy to work with and handle.
There is no two longhorns that are alike. They all differ in color pattern, size, horn, length, and personality.
Longhorns are bred well into their teens, which makes them have a lot more calves.
