2017 Minnesota Shorthorn Sale...
February 26, 2017 - Simon Arena - Cannon Falls, MN

It's that time of year once again!  We have entered two animals for the sale:


BSF 934 Audry 628D (x4242874)
This is the first calf offered up for sale out of TS Ben Cartwright and she's a dandy!  Just a May baby and is ready to show or run in the front pasture.

BSF 828 North Springtime 522C (*DR4245222)
Durham Red!  522c is a half sib to past sale heifers out of our Norseman King son Red Angus bull.  Her mother goes back to an old favorite from Canada Eionmor Ultra 49J.  She was AI'd to Red Cloud 7026 and cleaned up with ADS HL Conquistador (JSF Troubador son) due in late March 2017.

I do have some more half sibs to this bred female and they are like peas in a pod!

KAMILAROI MEAT PACKER H04

BSF 106Y Miss Packer (x4234827)
Meat Packer out of a Prince of Jazz daughter
Along with Donnelly Shorthorns and Bollum Family Shorthorns we purchased the U.S. semen rights on Meat Packer.  We will be having calves out of him the end of March 2016.  Semen is available so bring your tanks to the 2016 Minnesota Shorthorn Sale!!

 

2016 State Sale Entry

We ended up having to scratch our bred heifer from the 2016 sale.  The vet figures that she ate some bad feed and ended up with an infection in her mouth.  The swelling went down but she still has a small hard spot on her jaw.  I do not feel right putting her in the sale.

BSF 035X Gayle 419B


She does look good and I do have two half sisters to her I would be willing to sell all bred to DMH Cherry Fillet due the end of March 2016.

2015 Bred Heifer Offering




The chart speaks for itself.    The plus females are like peas in a pod.  All out of the same Norseman King son and solid Shorthorn Mamma's.  Most of them are solid red with a couple showing some roan.  I am asking $2800 for them in December with the price going up as they get closer to calving and we have more feed invested. 

The purebred Red Angus is a solid female but we decided to breed her Shorthorn as we have been so happy with the cross.

I will be putting one of the purebred Shorthornns in the Mn Shorthorn Sale and have them priced higher than the plus heifers.  Let me know if you have any questions.
