Rocío de la Cámara, Fighting bull breeding farm in Chiclana de la Frontera, Spain.
Rocío de la Cámara is a fighting bull breeding operation in Cádiz province with two working sites: Cortijo de la Sierra and Dehesa Boyal. The ranch manages its herds across these locations using traditional pastoral farming methods adapted for bullfighting stock.
Fernando de la Cámara founded the breeding program in 1952 using stock acquired from Carlos Núñez and Villamarta to establish a new line. The operation was reshaped in 1970 when the herd was reduced and focused on specific Núñez and Osborne bloodlines.
The farm produces bulls marked with a distinctive blue emblem and ear pendants, following traditional Spanish cattle breeding methods for bullfighting events.
