This is a very good herd of dairy cattle that have been well bred for many years.

Top A-I breeding has been used for 22 yrs. w/daughters of Alexander, Planet, Bronco, Bogart, Shot, Durable & Lawn-Boy-Red selling.

These are well framed, dairy typed cattle w/extremely good udders, feet & legs. This is a very young herd w/70 cows being in their 1^st or 2^nd lactation w/many productive years ahead of them.

Herd health is excellent w/a monthly herd health program used as well as routine 10 way vacc., Epernex worming & hoof trimming as well. The heifers are very well grown, AI sired & bred and accustomed to outdoor housing. These are the kind of heifers that are going to make excellent herd replacements.
