Sales

Welcome to our 14th Annual Sale!

 

A big thank you to everyone who has attended, bid or purchased at our past sales. We truly appreciate your support It certainly is a great time to be in the cattle business and we are optimistic we can enjoy this environment for a long while yet.

This year we are proud to offer 17 polled and horned 2 year old bulls, as well as, one purebred horned female. We will also have a strong set of F1 open black baldie heifer calves.

These animals are bred with the traits in mind that matter most, docility, fertility, longevity, feed conversion, hair and crossbreeding versatility. The service sires used were selected for their rib shape, foot and leg structure, calving ease for our heifers and udder quality passed to the females. We look for cattle that can convert feed to meat easily.

​

For the Angus, this year will mark the second calf crop of our herd sire, Belvin Jigsaw 69J. This young sire was brought in to add to the calving ease part of the herd and boy did he do that. In three calf crop to date he’s sons have an average birthweight of 76 pounds and have plenty of jam afterwards. Also, this year marks the first calf crop off Minburn Renovation 41K, he has sired a great group of heavy muscled maternal sons that will add pounds to your steer and fill the replacement pen. Other new bulls added this year consist of Lock Kingston 101K, a calving ease home raised bull off a beautiful dam. On the red side of the herd, RED SSS Bam 785K, a long spined power house that added growth and excellent feet in his calves. As well as a blast from the past, RED KBJ SHINING ARMOR 408J. This bull is a female making machine and his sons will be too!

When it comes to purchasing a Lock bull, our main goal is to ensure your cows are covered. If a bull goes down prior to or mid breeding season, make sure we are your first call. We can work with you to get another semen tested bull to your yard to cover your cows.

Like previous years, we brought in Shane Castle and Mark Forsyth with Castlerock Marketing to assist with any questions about the bulls or heifers we have on offer. Both have toured the cow herd and are very knowledgeable about what we have on offer with both the Angus and Herefords.

Please reach out with any questions on the offering we present. See you Feb. 9
