Life is Fun
Remember how those puddles of water lured us to the edge and dared us to see how far in we could go? Sometimes it got messy and other times it was just plain fun.
Calving Finished
We are officially done birthing baby calves. Calf crop was 70% male and 30% female. A very good season.
New Cows Coming Soon Bred to Divergent
We liked the looks and numbers of this Divergent Polled Hereford bull, so we purchased five mature cows from the Ernst Hereford Sale in Greeley, Colorado. Very excited to see the calves these females will have next spring.
Bull Calves Off to Beus Feedyard
All 24 weaned bull calves are off to Beus Feedyard this week. They will be fed until the spring.
Turnip Cover Crop
Check out these turnips we planted with barley and new seed alfalfa. Makes for some wonderful cow chow.
AI Work in Progress

Calving Season Slowing Down
We are waiting on the last eight cows to calve. The calves are growing fast and looking healthy.
New Bloodlines Added
We made a trip to Van Dyke Angus Ranch and came home with four cows that will deliver calves in January and February. We are excited to see how these outcross genetics work in our herd.
