We’re proud to be a sponsor of the Red Angus Youth Expo “Reds on Route 66” in Chickasha, OK, 6/11-14! This is a monumental event as it’s the first recognized National Jr Show, something that was just a dream when I (John) was on the National Jr Board over 20 years ago. Best of luck to all participants in OK this week!

It has been a busy couple of weeks at Veto Valley Farms! AI’ing the spring cows and heifers as well as setting up donors for the May flush was on the agenda.

Conventional and IVF donors included family members of the Flo Marie, Crystal, Minola, Copperqueen, and Lakina. The main cowherd includes just as impressive lineup of cow families like Jolene, Tidy Bee, Minola, Georgina, Tilly, Lakina, and Blockanna to name a few. Sires include proven mainstays, new additions, and exciting outcross bulls.

Reach out to us to discuss these matings or just talk about red cows!

Introducing VETO Keystone, a rising star at VVF!

This 9/22 KJL/CLZB Complete 7000E son of our “leading lady” Feddes Lakina D6 is a powerful, high-growth, sound stud that’s one we’ve watched since an early age. He’s good-footed and deep-sided with 7 traits in the single digit percentiles along with 10 in the top 1/3 of the breed.

He’s impressive on foot and on paper!

His lone flush mate sister, VETO Lakina 912K has been an attention getter her whole life and undoubtedly will follow her dam and maternal sisters to donor status. Their 3 flush mate brothers avg $7000 in the Feb Ludvigson Big Sky Bull Sale, where one was the co top seller.

We’re excited about the future of these two attractive, high-performance siblings!

Introducing the newest addition to our herd sire lineup... LSF PDC Prime Day 3540L!

A 1/23 Wedel Prime Time X 5L Independence bred stud from the famed Abigrace family. He has 10 traits in the single digit percentiles including top 1% GM, YW, ADG, MB, $P, and FERT.

He’s moderate, deep-sided, and good-footed. After a short stay at our partners, Schlesser Farms in Iowa, he’s off to Hawkeye Breeders Service to be collected. We look forward to adding these new genetics to the VVF herd in the fall!

A big day for VVF is coming up in Big Sky Country this Saturday (4/13) at the Ludvigson Stock Farms Spring Herdbuilder Bull Sale in Park City, MT.

The first offering of yearling sons of the $120,000 LSF BJR High Voltage 1803J from our signature donor Feddes Lakina D6 are part of the lineup. They’re loaded with performance as well as top of the breed HPG, CEM, and ST.

A LBW, high $, Ranch DUFF Red Blood son and the famed Georgina family from black lineage is another VVF highlight.

The EZ Factor sons are making a splash again after they averaged just under $6,000 in the February Big Sky Bull Sale. Two LBW, high growth featured EZ sons have caused a stir — one is the highest $ Profit one of the sale. They both rank in the top 1% for $Profit, $ Ranch, and FERT. They both go back to the deceased, foundation donor Minola X0427 as well.

Another EZ is a grandson of our signature donor Lakina D6 and ranks in the top 8% $ Ranch and 11% MB.

The first son of our newest herd sire Chief Executive also sells.

A lineup of bulls we’re excited to be offering!

What a record-breaking day we had at the Southeast Red Angus Association Grasstime Sale over the weekend! The sale average for 141 lots was $3,335, with a $10,500 high seller!

It's hard to put into words just how appreciative we are for the interest in VVF. Our 6 lots averaged just over $6,000, including both the high-selling bull and female. They sold to new and repeat customers into four states. Special thanks to repeat customers Mackenzie Enderle of Enderle Cattle Co. and Rob Brody for picking up the high seller of the day, VETO Minola 903K, and to Watkins Red Angus (FL) picking up VETO Kenworth as the high-selling bull.

Cullman is always a great event for us to showcase our cattle, see old friends, and meet new ones.

The Ludvigson Stock Farms Herdbuilder Bull Sale is coming up on 4/13, then weaning the fall calves, spring flushes, and breeding. There’s always something going on at VVF. Give us a call anytime to talk red cows!

Our last (but certainly not least!) featured highlight of the 33rd Annual Southeast Red Angus Association Grasstime Sale is Lot 24, VETO Minola 903K. She's one of the best we have offered in Cullman, AL to date!

A true front pasture female, 903 is a 9/22 LSF President daughter whose dam is a 106 MPPA maternal sister to the breed legend LSF Saga. Her breed leading data of 11 traits in the top 1/3 of the breed and 4 in the single digits are only bested by her outstanding eye appeal, overall mass, and performance. A true donor prospect that covers all the bases, she’s one we hate to see go!

Making her even more enticing is she’s carrying a heifer sired by the $90,000 Berwald Confidant 2044 at ABS! Our first Confidant calves are on the ground and “growing like weeds.”

We can’t say enough good things about 903 here, gives us a call to discuss her or any of the rest of our offering!

Our other fall bred stock market heifer consignment to the Southeast Red Angus Association Grasstime Sale on 4/6 is Lot 26, VETO Tidy Bee 0K1!

Her MGD is the now deceased 108 MPPA SRN Tidy Bee 2066 that was a maternal sister to breed legend BJR JR 107. Her 102 MPPA C-T Grand Statement dam is still working as a 9-year-old, plus she’s safe in calf to the $120,000 LSF BJR High Voltage 1803J.

True cow power carrying a cutting edge calf. Give us a call to discuss her and how much we treasure the Tidy Bees!
