Introducing the young guy:

Bannockburn.

A son of Cockburn Premium, born by embryo transfer out of Vimy 67G, this 3-star bull calf is already showing specific traits from his famous sire and gorgeous dam.
He’ll apprentice under the World Champ and later go on to service Hennessey’s daughters.

Bannockburn was named after the battle where Robert the Bruce overcame all odds, defeating Edward II and a much larger English army. That victory marked the turning point of the Scottish fight for independence.

My boy Jesse has come along ways in 14 months. From gaining trust, building bonds too his foot health. Like to give a shoutout to our farrier James Grant Inder. Hes visited Jesse over the past year on many occasions. Always shows up, very patient and very reasonably priced. Thanks James for all you do!

Back in March, Shawn and I took off for Kisbey, Saskatchewan and spent a week with Darren, Kylie, and the Moose Creek Red Angus gang.
To say we learned a lot from these guys is an understatement. From calving out 30+ cows a day, to herd health and management, C-sections, and everything in between — the amount of knowledge and experience they shared with us was unreal. Can’t thank these people enough for the opportunity. I know I’ll be implementing a lot of what I learned here at IronHorse.
I still remember calling Darren on the drive from Winnipeg to Kisbey and asking him what he was up to. He says, “Oh, just calving out a couple cows.” I asked, “Are they my cows?” “No,” he says, “I got a couple commercial cows here now.” “Very good,” I said. “We’ll see you in a couple hours.”
When we pulled into the ranch, as far as the eye could see was cattle. I won’t get into numbers because that’s against cattle code, but let’s just say “hundreds” wouldn’t cut it. Later on I said to him, “Oh yeah… a couple, eh?”
Thanks again for the experience. We can’t wait to return the hospitality you showed us when you come visit in August.
