Cattlemen & Women, Welcome to our 17th annual bull sale. It’s a great time to be in the cattle business. The cattle industry looks very promising. This is the stoutest, thickest set of bulls we’ve ever raised. The majority of these bulls are calving ease. The bulls were developed on native range with no creep feed. These bulls are fed a high roughage 45 mg cal ration developed by our nutritionist Jack Sieben of J&R Feeds. The bulls will be in ideal breeding condition and will have carcass information available sale day. As always, we will keep the bulls free of charge and at our risk, semen test and give them their spring shots before delivering them after May 1. The bulls sell with our unconditional first breeding season guarantee. The fall bulls will be semen tested before the sale. Scrotal measurements and ultrasound data will be available sale day. Stop in anytime to view the bulls at the ranch. Come early sale day for coffee and cookies, beef lunch at 11:00 and after the sale for Jack’s ribs and special refreshments. Thanks, Dave & Kathy Fuoss & family
