Partner, Abraham Brothers LLC

Jason Abraham is a fourth-generation resident of Hemphill county in the Texas panhandle. Jason and his wife of 25 years, Bonnie, raised their two children on the Mendota Ranch southwest of Canadian.

Jason is a graduate of Canadian High School and attained an Associate’s Degree in Ranch and Feedlot Operations from Clarendon College. During his last year at Clarendon, he and his brothers along with their grandfather started Abraham Investments. This company was set up to buy, improve and resell ranch land. More importantly, it was an opportunity for Malouf Abraham, Sr. to teach the three grandsons how to make a deal. After the death of their grandfather, the three brothers continued on in a new company appropriately named Abraham Brothers LLC. They bought land, mineral and water rights. A major portion of the water owned by Amarillo was bought from Abraham Brothers LLC. To this day, Abraham Brothers LLC continues to be a very profitable partnership.

In 1994, the family moved to the Mendota Ranch southwest of Canadian. That same year, he began helicopter flight school. He obtained his private helicopter rating and later commercial rating with 23 years of flying. Shortly after, Jason became interested in equine reproduction. Attending two equine reproduction short courses at Colorado State University and standing a couple of stallions led to the interest in embryo transfer. This led to the idea of maintaining a large herd of recipient mares which are used for embryo transfer, cloning and ICSI. The large number of mares on the ranch allowed for reproductive trials and research projects to be conducted. These trials and projects were extremely beneficial to Jason. One of these studies gave Jason the crazy idea to try to impregnate a mule with a quarter horse embryo. It was a success and Lou was the first mule to ever give birth and raise a quarter horse.

Around this time, ViaGen contacted Dr. Gregg Veneklassen and Jason about cloning. This began a relationship with ViaGen in equine cloning that quickly expanded into other species. It has been a very beneficial relationship for all. Gregg and Jason are also partners in their own deer cloning company, Wildlife Reflections. In the last year, Jason has developed IVF protocols for deer. Jason has been involved in the cloning of horses, cattle, deer, goats, pigs and cats. The cloning lab at the ranch is one of only a few in the nation. This is the lab that cloned the YG1 cattle for WTAMU. Jason was awarded the First-Choice award by WTAMU in 2016. He continues to expand his knowledge of reproduction by surrounding himself with likeminded experts.
