NOVEMBER 2008

Mother Nature continues to keep us on our toes! With a mild temperature summer (no 100 degree days), and occasional rains/minor floods, why would we expect the fall to be "normal"!?! After one night of sub-freezing temperatures, we have been enjoying an Indian summer with temperatures in the 70s, however, according to the meteorologists, "real" fall weather is on its way.

Despite the challenges in weather, harvesting soybeans and corn is progressing. Additionally we have had the calves weaned for almost a month. Weaning data has been submitted to the respective breed associations and the initial round of culling for growth and performance has taken place. This is an on-going process as we select the top bulls and heifers to keep for breeding stock.

Thanks for your interest in our cattle and we welcome your inquiries and visits. We are honored by the confidence and loyalty our new and repeat patrons have in our cattle.
