Final outing with our show cattle this year

Just returned home from the Big E (Eastern National Livestock Show). This heifer and her dam were also Grand Champion Cow/Calf and our Jan bull calf was Grand Champion Bull.

Always exciting to be on top! We also took Premier Breeder & Exhibitor. The breeder award is ALWAYS our goal.
This heifer is a Jan out of a 2-year old (shown also as cow/calf pair). She weighed 846# last week - literally on mom's milk & hay & grass. At home, we separate them during the day and give her 1.5# of a mixture of half whole oats and half cotton seed hull pellets am & pm. They are getting weaned today! People in the barn would come over during feeding and were amazed we don't load up any of our cattle with a lot of grain.

Congrats! Will you sell her, or take her home to grow into a brood cow?

We have a price list of all our heifers - my nephew posts the list on FB. We post a sale sheet of our show string at every show. We have a higher price on this one. They range from $4500 - $7000 --- and yes, we do sell them. We would prefer to keep this girl, but I have the "factory" (dam) bred back same way and an almost full sib to this little girl - same age. Dams are out of sisters and sired by same sire.

I didn't see them for sale on your FB page, but I did on your website. Didn't see a one that I wouldn't love to have. Never seen any better anywhere. Some near as good, maybe, but none better. You really know what you are doing, and it shows.
