We are a mixed operation that consists of the cattle operation, along with our grain farming operation. If you notice the birthdates of these bulls on offer, you will notice that a lot of them are born when the seed drill is running as well. The cowherd has had to become low maintenance, not only out of our desire, but also out of necessity. We develop bulls slowly and let them grow, with longevity and reliability for our customers at the top of our minds. The bulls are weaned off of their mothers and put on a high roughage grower ration that meets all of their nutrition needs, while not pushing for top gains. Come grass time, these guys are hauled to pasture to graze all summer. In late fall, they are started on a high roughage TMR ration and brought along slowly. We grow the majority of all of our ingredients right here at the farm. This produces sound, stout, functional future herdsires that we are extremely confident in and proud of.
M&J Farms and Glasman Farms are strong believers in consistent, functional working bulls. We aim for complete customer satisfaction. We are also realistic people, who understand that these are animals - should a situation arise, you can rest assured, we have your back. We pride ourselves in customer service that doesn’t end on sale day.
This year, we will be having a live auction at the farm. We encourage you to join us on sale day for lunch and hospitality. If you can’t join us in person, join the live broadcast on DLMS and bid with confidence online.
We invite and recommend everyone to come through and tour the bulls ahead of the sale. We understand that getting away is not always easy or even possible sometimes. There will be videos online of all the bulls for you to view. We offer one of the best sight-unseen programs in the business, with personalized service that is tailored to meet your bull needs. If you aren’t happy with your purchase at delivery or pickup, you don’t own him.
Please feel free to call us at M&J Farms or Glasman Farms if we can help answer any questions you may have. Miles, Matthew and I would be happy to assist you. The T Bar C staff can also work with you on your bull selection or field your questions.
We wish you the best of luck in securing your selection on sale day. Thank you in advance for your consideration of our 2023 sale offering.
Cheers, Jared
From the desk at T Bar...
Welcome to M & J Farms and Glasman Farms Simmental and Angus Bull Sale! This annual event will kick off at 2:00PM on February 26, 2023, at the farm, 2 miles south of Russell, Manitoba off the Yellowhead Highway, and online with DLMS.
This breeding operation ranks amongst the finest in the province and is steeped in history… first in the Angus breed and then the Simmental component… giving the Glasman Family a very large cow herd base to select high quality bulls for their many repeat customers. The program is based on two-year-olds born on grass in late April and through seeding. They are summered on grass then supplemented with a high roughage ration in the fall to ready them for sale. Basically, the bulls are maintained and cared for just like that of their customers. During the summer process, Miles and Mother Nature do much of the culling… feet and legs… disposition… do-ability to name a few. There is no smoke or mirrors in this operation.
The lineup is stout, muscular and rugged… sound of feet and legs that are designed to cover plenty of cows in big pastures. Whether it be Simmental, Red and Black or Black Angus you can be assured of added value with your purchases and selections simply because you will want to keep all their daughters in the replacement pastures. The sons will speak for themselves in the sale barns you choose to market at.
Plan to stop by the ranch any time prior to the sale, preview the bulls and see their mothers. Do not hesitate to give any of these good folks a call to discuss the bulls… they will give you an honest assessment. Plan to be with us on February 26th… it will be worth the trip
If we may be of assistance, prior to or sale day, feel free to contact any of the T Bar Team or myself, we will help you in a professional manner.
