Rains Simmental | 2023 Bulls of the Prairie Sale

Welcome Rains Simmental

To the 5th annual Bulls of the Prairie bull and heifer sale at our place. This will be our 24rd sale for Rains Simmental.

Here at Rains Simmental our bulls and heifers are bred for productivity and longevity. Our cattle are not supplemented as calves in the pasture.

Once weaned, the bulls are fed to a target of 2.8 - 3 pounds of average daily gain on a high roughage diet to maintain a natural growth pattern, correct structure, and foot integrity. This year we are offering 36 bulls and 20 heifers in this year’s sale. You will be able to find bulls that are designed to put more pounds on your market calves and heifers of high quality to build your cattle herd.

We hope you can join us at the farm March 11th. If you can’t be there in person, join us on DVAuction live sale day. Lunch will be available sale day and bull and heifers will be there for viewing in the morning with coffee and cinnamon rolls.

Thank you again for your support and interest in our cattle. If you have any questions, please call or text, we always like to talk cattle.

Sincerely,

MASON, MAURI & RYDER RAINS
