Situated alongside the Castlereagh River near Coonabarabran, Isla Angus proudly maintains our families tradition of breeding easy-doing cattle known for their exceptional performance and eating quality.
Awarded the RAS Fine Foods Gold Medal in 2019, our commitment to profitability and excellence drives our breeding strategies. Since acquiring Millah Murrah Flower and Millah Murrah Waldo in 2002, we’ve expanded our stud herd, continually refining our approach to ensure consistent success.
Commercial
Transitioning to Angus in the 90’s significantly boosted our cattle’s value, making Isla Angus genetics highly sought after by feedlotters, meat companies, and restockers. Our cattle consistently excel in feedlot and carcass competitions, earning top awards even during droughts.
We prioritise breeding for calving ease, growth, and carcass quality, ensuring our Angus bulls deliver exceptional results for our commercial herd and our customers.
At Isla Angus, our dedication to superior genetics has earned us numerous accolades. From gold medals for taste to top rankings in carcass and live assesments, our awards from 2015 to 2023 highlight our commitment to excellence in breeding and performance.

Why our buyers keep coming back:
Proven Performance & Superior Birthing Genetics
“I have been buying cattle from Ambrose & Lisa Doolan since I arrived in Dubbo in 1995 working for AMH.
I have seen their cattle & farming operation grow into what it is today.
The time, effort & money they have devoted to their angus cattle genetics now has their steers in the top 10% for feedlot performance from my vendors in JBS feedlots.”
“We have purchased ISLA Angus bulls from the Doolan’s over the past four years. The bulls are sound and have good structure and the traits we are looking for. Their temperament is also good.
The results of these bulls is in the calves on the ground. That is what we look for.”
