OUR FUTURE GENERATION OF SALE HEIFERS & BULL RAISERS
In 2019 we began to adapt our commercial breeding program towards the inclusion of pedigreed F1 genetics, in addition to our existing commercial herd of 250 females. Here going forward, we are breeding groups of purebred females, and all of our purebred replacements, to strong herdsires of the opposing breed. The offspring have potential in many avenues including strong commercial replacements, recipient females, 4H projects, and sale heifers. By crossing all purebred replacements their first year, we are ensuring that the top up and coming seedstock females will also have an impact on the commercial herd.
weights, yearling weights, body condition scores, birth and health records, herd health protocols, and udder and feet scoring is already fully integrated into the commercial herd as well. Wanting to utilize this data to it’s fullest potential and broaden it furthermore, we have included feed efficiency, cowherd indexing, and return on investment calculations on a per-cow basis. Our hope is that this will help us over time to advance the commercial herd into a select, elite group of cows. By doing it on a large scale involving 300+ females, our hopes is that we can breed exceptional replacement females for our customers.
The motivation behind the pedigreed program is an ever increasing demand for F1 blaldy females, and a low supply of proof regarding first cross heifers. Our goal is to provide a large group of females with a pedigree, and data to back their performance. Every detail that we keep on the purebred herd, including birthweights, weaning
A purebred female that ranks herself in the top 20% of the herd, is then is bred back purebred for seedstock genetics.

Our objective is to use this program as quality control on the seedstock females, ensuring that every dam of a sale bull has excelled under the exact prerequisite conditions which her son is expected to breed.
