A lifelong student of beef cattle nutrition has had Wayne immersed in a career tenure of 30 plus years working with feed manufacturers and food producers spanning from Ontario to BC. It’s a calling he did not take lightly as it shaped and steered his life as a young boy growing up in an industrialized city in Southwestern Ontario to present day where he and his wife Edie own and operate their ranch in the foothills of Alberta.
Skelton Cattle Co. raises registered polled Hereford Breeding stock, and their genetics can be found across Canada. Grand Champion Bull and Female Banners earned at the Toronto Royal Winter Fair, Canadian Western Agribition and the World Hereford Conference hang on his office wall along with pictures of the fondly named winners such as “Wideload”, “Jake” and “Joplin” to name a few.
With over 20 years as a beef feed specialist, continued learning at the Meat Animal Research Center, Kansas State University and Iowa Beef Center, and a chance meeting with the editor from a Canadian agricultural publication had him being asked to write and submit articles relating to beef nutrition and management as he had learned to apply to his customer market. Bovine reproduction, nutrition, and management articles of his have been read by many.
Always up for a visit, feel free to give Wayne a call at any of his contact numbers. He’d love to hear from you!
