June 3rd 2011 Heifer Reduction Sale
In the last 2 years due to us having a greater proportion of heifers born than bulls we have quality heifers for sale. We are keeping 4 heifers as replacements and selling the remaining 11. It is with reluctance that we are parting with any of these heifers, we would happily breed from them all. The ones that are retained are those who don't have many maternal relatives in the herd. Click on this link for pictures and information on the sale heifers.
