Bulls for Sale

 We develop bulls differently here at Deep Grass Graziers.  They are grown slowly on high quality forages, baleage,  and hay.  We believe this prevents feet and fertility issues that can arise from an energy intense ration which balloons bulls to fat, eye appealing proportions in very little time.  Its cheaper and easier to put bulls in a lot and feed them a ration, but when you get your bull home and he starts breeding cows, many producers watch their big strapping bull 'melt' under the work of breeding and the lack of energy in our southeastern grasses.  A high energy ration also doesn't discriminate against those bulls that are not efficient pasture converters.  Our bulls work for their meal ticket, and its easy to separate the efficiency converters from the average.

Our bulls are fit and athletic, and are capable of breeding more cows than the overweight bull.  We believe our development program will add longevity to our bulls, giving you a few extra seasons of production.  On our farm, if a bull doesn't make it to his 10th birthday, we are disappointed.  

Our genetics have been sourced from lineages built around great cows.   We breed for reproductive longevity, which promotes fertility and structural soundness first and foremost.  We recommend our genetics for customers who want to save or sell replacement heifers, and build their herd around moderate-sized, efficient cows that are great at turning grass into profit.  

Our bulls are not terminal.  Our steer calves have adequate growth, but we are not trying to breed giant cows that are more costly to maintain.  Consequently, most of our bulls frame scores are from 3 to 5, and will weigh between 1700-2000 lbs at full maturity on a pasture diet.  Full maturity occurs between 4 and 5 years of age developed our way.  Most of our bulls are low birthweight, and safe to use on heifers.  The females from our bulls will mature at weights between 1000-1300lbs, depending on frame score and BCS.  Our goal is to wean over 50% of our dam's bodyweight in to and throughout her teenage years.  We aim to do this with minimal inputs and under a 45 day breeding window.  We are not in this business to brag about our weaning weights, we are in this business to make money, improve our soils, and enjoy doing it.   Our bulls are a great value compared to more popular "grass genetics" that have been well marketed over the past few years, and really thrive in our Southeastern soils and forages.  



Coming 2 and 3 year old bulls will be available later this fall and early next spring.   Please contact us if you'd like to visit and see them.  Prices range from $2500-$4000.
