Welcome to the Koenig Ranch 13th Annual Production Sale!

Thank you for your support and interest. Our Registered Red Angus herd represents 25 years of selection for performance and production on proven genetics born and raised outside the corral - not in a feed yard.

Range raised, naturally matured on the tough range conditions of the Missouri Breaks, using only natural minerals and supplement when needed. It takes the right kind to thrive. We bring the best to you fit, fertile and ready for breeding. For more information, please call one of us or the stockyards.

Sincerely, Arley & Francis Koenig
