Located in northern Harlan County, just 15 miles north of Alma, Nebraska, our cattle operation has been dedicated to excellence since its inception in 1992. We began with the purchase of our first commercial females and, after about five years in the cow-calf sector, transitioned into seed stock breeding.
By utilizing technologies like artificial insemination (AI) and embryo transfers, we’ve focused on advancing our herd to produce top-end females for retention and top tier bulls to meet the demands of our customers. For over a decade, we sold bulls Private Treaty, building a reputation for quality and trust. In February 2015, we held our first annual production sale, a milestone that solidified our commitment to serving cattle producers with exceptional genetics and service.
As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same: to provide outstanding cattle that enhance the profitability of our customers and contribute to the success of the beef industry as a whole.
When selecting seed stock either to retain in our herd or to introduce from outside programs, we utilize all tools available to make an educated decision. Our approach to seed stock selection begins with a focus on the fundamental qualities before factoring in EPDs, pedigrees, individual performance, or ultrasound data. We prioritize structural soundness, emphasizing solid feet and legs, functional teat and udders, appropriate frame size , and calm disposition. Once these essential traits are ensured, we refine their physical attributes while maintaining high standards for calving ease, growth, and carcass excellence.
