R E P CIAL
AT DC FARMS, we are commercial beef
producers, and we strive to raise the kind of bulls we want to use in our commercial herd. Our venture into purebred cattle began in 1984, when we purchased our first Limousin bull and were so impressed with him that we bought some registered Limousin females. Over 35+ years, we’ve turned those first few
cows into a small solid herd of registered females that exemplify the calving ease, muscling, and docility we love about the Limousin breed. We’re picky about our bulls, and you can be certain every bull bearing the UXJ prefix has met our strict requirements for growth, docility, and structural correctness.

OF D N I K A OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS, we’ve started an
embryo program using some of the top females in our herd. These three December born bulls are the result of one of those pairings, along with three flushmate sisters that are at the top of our replacement heifer pen. These smooth-made, long-bodied bulls are sired by Cole Architect, the 2018 Canadian Limousin Show sire of the year. On the bottom side, their dam You’re So Sweet 135Y is one of our favorite females out of the Honeydew line - a cow family we love for their thickness, depth of body and pretty udders.

EVINRUDE 56E was our favourite in our bull pen 2
years ago, and we decided to retain some semen for in-herd use before sending him on to his new home with New Life Limousin in Ontario. We are very happy with that decision!
DOUG 780•674•7494 CARRIANN 780•674•7063
Our first crop of Evinrude calves were long-bodied and stout - traits these three bulls exemplify. We have some more Evinrude’s hitting the ground this year, and they are just as good.

Evinrude also proved himself in the show ring this past fall, being selected Senior Champion Bull at the 50th Anniversary National Limousin Show.
