We have some good heifers this year out of our Promise bull as well as thirty plus yearling bulls to go in the spring and 2 two year old bulls. A deposit will hold your pick and the animals need to be picked up by the first of May.
We always cut any bull calves that do not meet our criteria and/or conformation standards as well as anything out of a cow that we have culled for any reason.
Our guarantee is that the bulls all pass their bull tests and will do their job or we will replace them or refund your purchase price.
We always have a selection or young and mature cows that do not fit in our breeding program. Nothing wrong with them, they are just excess and Marsha will give you the rational why they are for sale. Anything that we would not keep for ourselves always go for meat.
- We also will do startup / breeding packages with a selection of younger cows and heifers with a bull that compliments their bloodlines at reasonable prices for young breeders just getting started.
We will be moving our older bull herd in the next couple weeks. There are two coming two year olds that were held back that are available and I will get weight and hopefully pictures for them. Both have been sold. Here is some info.
