    We annually offer 50 females for sale by priavte treaty.
​
 Our cowherd is of upmost importance to us. We rely on them for the majority of our income. We grow all our own crops, both to market and feed our livestock. We feed out our steers on high-moisture corn while on a comfortable pasture. We raise our replacement heifers and bulls on a diet of corn silage and a light corn and oats mix. Our cows are fed hay, generally from mid November until green grass (mid May) and are expected to calve early each year, then while on grass only, breed back quickly, raise a good to excellent calf without creep feed or pampering and utilize the cornstalk residue in the fall before it is exhausted, or the snow gets too deep.
     We calve in two seperate seasons, about 200 cows in the spring (Feb.- March, tailing off in April) and 25 in the fall (Sept.). This gives us options for marketing our bulls and steers.
     We incorporate genetics that are well suited for us and our environment. Time has shown us that we need the majority of our cows to be in the 1300- 1500 lb. range. Cows relying as heavily on forages as much as ours do need a lot of capacity, and with that comes a little more size. 
     Our cows are also expected to be very sound. We run them in big, rugged pastures (by Wisconsin standards) and they travel a lot, so good feet and legs are a must. Udder integrity is also very high on our list of quality traits. We work hard to maintain a cowherd with tight udders and small teats.
     Artificial insemination and embryo transfer are used to move our herd in a particular direction, but we prefer to purchase and utilize the best sires we can afford. We believe that these bulls need to be out of superior dams and that this will have a large impact on the daughters of these bulls, constantly moving our cowherd forward in productivity and efficiency. This also applies to the females we are able to offer our customers.
