Another great day here on the farm! Dr. Mark James and his amazing wife Emily came and castrated the bulls and preg-checked a couple cows. We can’t recommend Dr. James enough as he does all of our embryo work and we couldn’t be happier with his work! Thank you Dr. James!

Happy Mother’s Day from our family to yours!

This is it! That final donor before the sale goes live THIS SUNDAY! So far we’ve introduced a lot of black cattle, so we figured it’s time to bring in some color! This is Ivy. She is a Fire Storm x NR Quantum Queen 463G. She was raised by the man, the myth, the shorthorn legend, Fred Ripburger out of Illinois.

Fred also raised Warner Ott’s 2021 Supreme Champion Heifer at the Indiana State Fair Rosie. Ivy was shown in the 2022-23 show season where she went UNDEFEATED. Ivy was named Champion Shorthorn Heifer at every show in her show career, including the Hoosier Beef Congress and Indiana State Fair. To this day we have never had another animal come close to this achievement.

Ivy has just gotten into the donor business as she is still young, but the work she has done is very impressive. She has a Perfection bull calf at her side now and let’s just say we’re excited. If Shorthorns are your thing, Ivy is the cream-of-the-crop.

It’s donor #3!

This here is Lucy. Lucy is a Marilyn x Primo. She was shown in 2023 by Delaney Ott and she was the Champion Chianina Heifer and Third Overall Heifer at the 2023 Indiana State Fair. Her full sister was shown by Hannah Scherer the same year and was Reserve Chianina Heifer behind Lucy.

This year another full sister is being shown by Delaney Ott and she was just named Champion Chianina Heifer at the 2025 Hoosier Beef Congress. Lucy has been a pasture favorite of ours for a while now and she has only just begun her work has a donor.

Lucy hasn’t been in the game long, but she’s not messing around, her best work so far has been with HGTA. We have some of these scheduled to hit the ground soon this spring and we couldn’t be more excited. We will be offering this mating in our upcoming genetics sale and I envy the man who gets their hands on these, these embryos are the real deal.

Donor #2!!

This here is Marilyn, she’s always been a pasture favorite around here and she has been extremely successful in the donor pen during her tenure. We bought Marilyn from Brian Goettemoeller in the fall of 2016 when her signature “snip-nose” captivated our attention. She was shown by Weston Ott and was named Champion Commercial Heifer at the 2017 Indiana State Fair.

After Marilyn hit the donor pen, she wasted no time hitting her stride. She has continuously produced great calves her entire life, and has not slowed down. Below are just a few of her most notable offspring. In our upcoming genetics sale, we will be offering new matings out of Marilyn and these have the makings of greatness.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to get ahold of these new embryos!

As always, comment below what you think the new matings are going to be! 👇🏻👇🏻
