Blackbird When we toured Montana Ranch this Fall, the combination of 8105’s beautiful phenotype and impressive production record struck us hard, and we knew on the drive home that our ownership of her would be our top priority. Within four years, Blackbird has had 7 calves sell through the Montana Ranch sales, averaging $20,000 per head. She is backed by a gorgeous dam who came highly recommended, with her own storied history of production and success behind her. Natural Law has established himself as one of the most successful Angus sires to date, with semen becoming increasinly hard to find. We feel 8105 and Natural Law will make the ultimate cross, garnering and exceptional EPD package and great look to put you on the forefront of the entire breed. Alpine was the $118,000 talk of Agribition as he sold to Elk Ridge Farms, and amassing the largest crowd around a stall as we have perhaps ever seen at Agribition.

The pedigree, shape, dimension and solid numbers of Alpine make him one of the hottest up and comers in the breed.

Keystone Keystone sold in the spring of 2021 for $34,000 to a partnership between Brent Charolais and Legacy Ranch Charolais. He is quickly becoming one of the most used sires in the breed due to his tandem of performance and carcass merit coupled with an elite phenotype. His EPD tabulation is rivaled by few, and combined with a 76 lb BW to ratio 93 is extremely impressive. We strongly believe that Keystone will outlast many sires simply because he is able to add real world performance, phenotypic quality, and impeccable structure.
