Embryos Selling this Saturday!
LOT 47 Best of the Midwest Hereford Sale

Sugar J02 x GGSC Trademark 9J

This female has been as good as it gets for our operation. We strive to create cattle who can bridge the gap between the show and seed stock industry, and J02 is the epitome of just that. Elite looking, elite numbered. We felt Trademark would be a unique mating, and it has worked great. We have multiple full sibs to these embryos on the ground this spring and we are thrilled with the quality!

Her dam was a stable point of our program. We believe in this Logic female and know she will make an instant impact to anyone’s operation!

Kottkamp Cattle is bringing a LOGICal choice to you in Lot 44 🧠

This Logic daughter was born and raised in Clayton, IN, but she’s going to gather attention from breeders everywhere. She’s long and extended, sound structured, and carries a powerful muscle pattern that ties everything together just right.

Added bonus: a February Munson heifer calf at side that only enhances the package.
