The Foundation: Our Females

The cow herd is the engine of any cattle operation. Ours has been built over 40+ years of selection for maternal efficiency, longevity, milking ability, and structural soundness. We don’t sell our best females — we keep them.

How We Manage the Herd

Our management practices are built for the high desert — water-efficient, low-stress, and focused on long productive lives.

Rotational Grazing

Managed rotational grazing on irrigated pastures along the Carson River, supplemented with alfalfa hay in winter.

18–24 Month Raise

All cattle are raised 18–24 months before sale — bulls and females alike. No shortcuts, no early weaning programs.

AI Every Year

We synchronize and AI the entire cow herd annually using top-ranked Angus sires. Clean-up bulls cover any open cows.

Interested in Our Bulls?

We sell bulls privately year-round and consign to the Great Basin Bull Sale each spring. All bulls are performance-tested, EPD-verified, and BSE-certified before sale.
