Farm Visits:

We encourage farm visits at your convenience. Visitors to the ranch between Jan 1st and Feb 20th will get a $100 discount off of a sale day purchase. Being the auction format is a video sale, and no animals will walk through a ring, we highly recommend coming early sale day to have enough time to evaluate all the bulls. We hope to see many of you!

Local

ADG & Feed Ration

The average daily gain was figured on a 90 day test. We work with PNC Feeds of Hebron, ND for balancing the ration. We target a 3.5 lb ADG average on the bulls. We feel that shows their growth potential without sacrificing their longevity. They are developed in big open pens and get plenty of exercise to properly develop.

Delivery:

Yearling bulls will be fed for free, semen tested and delivered after April 1st. Bulls will be delivered free of charge up to 250 miles from the ranch. We will work with the buyer to arrange the most economical delivery for distances beyond 250 miles.

Any cattle selling to Canada will be delivered to the nearest border crossing facility on the ND side. Buyers will be responsible for any costs associated with testing/ clearance for export.

Genomic Enhanced EPDS:

Many of the bulls selling in the 2023 sale have EPD’s enhanced with DNA technology. We are investing in the latest technology available to provide you with the most accurate EPD’s possible. This technology improves the accuracy of EPDs on yearling bulls as if they were an older bull with progeny proof! You will see “Genomic Enhanced EPDs” at the beginning of the footnotes of the bulls that have genomic enhanced EPD profiles. Check online for the most up-to-date EPDs.
