Welcome from Char-Maine Ranching
Welcome to our 20th bull sale! I know this has been said a lot these last few years, but it is so obvious this year and maybe, by the sounds of it, even more relevant for years to come. Extra pounds and the premium you get from the market topping Charolais calves sure makes a big diference when you deposit that calf cheque.
Come and maximize your calf cheques with bulls that will do it all for you. We have bulls for everyone, from top performers to a few select heifer bulls. We are working on breeding top feed efcient cattle and doing some extensive testing to get there. If your interested in feed efciency, give me a call and we will talk about how to get an even bigger premium out of your calves.
We would be happy to discuss our Bulls, our Bull guarantees and optimizing your calf marketing with you.
