Functional - Maternal - Performance
Quality genetics increase your bottom line!
Nothing is better at converting grass into protein than the Angus cow; that’s what they were made to do! A cow must do this efficiently or she is costing the producer money. The ability to maintain her body condition, while raising a big, stout calf, and breeding back on time, is what we believe a functional cow is.
A cow should have the natural maternal instincts to get her calf moving and nursing soon after birth. We also believe this includes having an udder that is properly structured so that the calf can nurse without assistance.
Commercial producers sell their cattle by the pound, and we expect our genetics to add extra pounds to their calf crop. Being transparent in providing the ratios of each cow and calf is important, so that our customers know how they rank within their contemporary group.
Our cowherd is managed the same as most commercial cowherds and grown strictly on dryland pasture, salt and mineral. We feel that this is the most honest approach to assure that they can perform adequately in our northern climate. Our cows need to handle real ranch conditions and raise an above average calf or we don’t keep them.
