2019 Calves

The 2019 calf crop was pretty salty!!  It did lean a little more towards the bull end of the spectrum.  Here are a few snapshots of the crop

Bull calf we are keeping.  He's out of a cow we bought in the Minnesota State Sale from Doug Bruns.  He's a JDMC Standout times Big Sky momma.  Double bred Bonanza!

He's pretty thick!
Here's the other bull we are keeping.  DMH Cherry Fillet back to a Saskvalley Warrior daughter.  Soggy red and polled!

TS Ben Cartwright times Deerhorn Fresh Prince.  She was sold to Kaitlyn Rux. Thanks Kaitlyn!!
Here's a Fall calving heifer back to DMH Maverick.  We have 15 calves out of him and they all came easy and are pretty stout.  Tough Fall with the weather but they seemed to push through it.
 

We moved all of our Red Angus females to the Fall herd.  I also own a Regulator Son from Nordlund Stock Farm with Rob Tate and Dean Taylor.  Here's the oldest calf out of him.  Her mother is out of an NBAR Hamley son.
