Welcome!
Welcome to our 2023 C Diamond production sale. Another year has come and gone and the wild ride of farming and ranching continues. The April blizzard was the worst I’ve ever experienced but I’m only 31 so what do I know? Summer was pretty decent other than the lack of rainfall, but with the spring moisture we were able to have good hay and corn crop. The calves did very well this summer as our pasture made a huge rebound from the drought the year before. Fall was very nice as we were able to get bulls weaned with very minimal issues. Then November hit and we got our first blizzard. Unfortunately, the weather has been on and off miserable all winter and I’m just very grateful for how the cattle have handled the challenges we’ve faced.
The optimism around the beef industry has really come on all summer and makes doing what we do each day feel like it’s worth the time and effort. The calf crop is the most consistent group we’ve had as far as muscle, structure and growth. Our continued mission is to produce high performing cattle that can carcass, but still have the maternal traits to be excellent females. We feel everything starts with the cow and stems off from there. We start with a commonsense approach using phenotype and epds and then utilize genomic testing to enhance your success through increased predictability. This group of bulls accurately represents our goals and how we can make our bulls profitable for you. Like always we are offering $100 off your bull purchase if you stop in before February 20th and we always welcome phone calls with questions. Weather permitting our videos should be on DV Auction early in February. We look forward to seeing you February 22, 2023!
