Bred Heifers for sale

Everyone develops heifers differently. I think the key is to understand what yours truly need, based on your management, marketing, and goals. We breed cattle to work in their environment with minimum inputs. We don't want to select against performance, but we are circumspect about how much performance can cost, and try to supplement only when it is economically advisable. We read BCS and manure as our guide. After a decade of this work, our cattle are smaller than they started, more fertile on less inputs, more docile, better uddered and ultimately more profitable. They excel in grass finishing and direct market programs. These bred heifers are grazing stockpiled bermudagrass without supplement. Before that they were grazing unfertilized bahia for most of the year. If you need cattle that are built for the rigors of the South without crutches, we have 55 head available. Spring calving in March-April.   $1850/each.  Volume discounts available.   

Cows for Sale

If you are looking to start or grow your low input cow herd,  we open up our entire herd for your interest.  I tell visitors, "Everything is for sale", even if I have to protect a handful with blush worthy pricing.  I try and price 90% of my cows at levels I would be willing to pay for them.    From open weaned heifers, to 6 year olds in their prime,  to proven teenagers, we have something for everyone who's interested in Southern Grass Cattle.  Our business is breeding cows that work for you, not the other way around.   While these cows graze unimproved perennial pastures mostly of Bahia, Bermuda, and a selection of broadleaf forbs, they have been selected to thrive in the heat and humidity.  We have sent dozens of cattle into fescue country and they tend to do as well or better there than here.  We have blended line-bred, old line Angus cows with those that thrived here for the last 50 years.   Our cattle are trained to single wire temporary electric fences, and have been selected for docility and easy handling.  They also are aggressive graziers of just about anything that grows.   


SOLD OUT!  Thanks for everyone who supported the program this Fall.  We have sent or are sending cows to MS, GA, and N.C.  Check back with us next Fall for adult cows.  We still have bred heifers available.

Spring calving commercial bred cows are $1600-$1900 each, pending quality and how close to calving.   Most will calve in March-April.   (3n1's will be priced according to month bought/ size of calf) Red Angus and Black Angus registered cows are $2000 and up.   We guarantee a live calf for this price.  Volume discounts available.  

Fall bred cows for sale

 In the quest for extreme pressure on fertility, we tend to have some open cattle that we believe will be consistent producers under average or better forage availability.  These cattle have now been bred back twice inside a  45 day calving window and I have even more confidence in them. They are priced at a discount to our no-strike herd, and we have no reservation about putting our name on these.  We will keep these in our Fall herd until they make another mistake and are off to the barn.   This year we are adding heterosis by breeding them to excellent Senepol sons out of my favorite two cows at Millertown Senepol.  They will calve in December and January.    Commercial bred cows $1500-1700. They are Angus and Angus cross cattle from 4-9  years old.    Registered breds are $1700-$1900.  All animals confirmed bred with date by our vet.   These will be pairs very soon and you can add $300 for Jan/Feb pickup. 

Class of 2021 update

If you remember from my previous post, this young group were 81% bred in 33 days last year as true heifers.   Well I'm proud to report this year we left the bulls in a little longer but of the 76 cows exposed, 71 were bred in 60 days of exposure.  Getting first calf heifers bred back can be challenging, but ours performed above the herd average, AND raised great calves.  Our program is getting stronger!
