Welcome from Raatz Farms

I hope this catalog finds you surviving what has been a challenging winter so far, but with the snow comes a renewed excitement for this spring and what it brings.

We are very excited with this year’s bull offering. When selecting these bulls we try to breed for the type of cattle that work best for us in the feedlot; thick, high growth cattle with superior carcass traits are essential. When raising our own replacement heifers calving ease, strong maternally and always, always consider docility. Raising functional cattle that require less inputs that are more profitable.

The breds came right out of our replacement pen. They have been bred and raised just like we would if we would be keeping them. I am confident they will be strong assets for their new owners.

I would like to thank our family and the Lehrman family for all the help and support and thank you for your interest in our program. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or to view the cattle prior to February 27th. Hope to see you on sale day!

Thank

you, Craig & Angie Raatz
