All our bulls have now been sold but keep us in mind for next year on March 6, 2027 for the next crop of bulls and heifers. Please share photos of your Brad Z Ranch calves if you have time during your busy spring/summer seasons.

In other happy news, Bradford grandson Brady Lorimor proposed last weekend at the ranch. Allison said yes! We are all so happy to have this great girl join the family! See photo of the couple below in comments.

Here's a look at a 7-year-old Brad Z Ranch bull at the Dave and Sharon Doud farm near Stuart, where we did a recent customer visit. Owner Jim Bradford chatted with Dave Doud about Brads Focus U 973. The wind made most of Dave's comments difficult to hear but the video hopefully shows you enough. Dave is most proud of his bull for his impressive growth, great feet, great docility and the quality of his calves.

Here's an updated yearling bulls list. Besides the one on this list, we also have one additional bull not listed here who is recovering from an injury/being observed. He may be back on this list in a week or so. So please let us know if you want us to remember that you may still be shopping.

We are going to fit in a few visits to our bull customers to see how some of their Brad Z Ranch bulls are looking. Owner Jim Bradford chatted first with Tom Doud of Stuart, Iowa (and his brother Dave, whose bull we will show you next time). We took a look at a 2023 bull that Tom bought from Brad Z Ranch. Here's what Tom had to say about Brads Magnum 335.

Our remaining yearling bulls have grown a lot since we last shared videos of them so we grabbed some new footage yesterday. All are semen tested. Priced at $5,500. They are in numerical order corresponding with the EPD sheet that we posted a few days ago on our feed. Please also read the details in video captions about where each bull may stand out nationally (and which have sold since we posted). If interested, message us here, or find our contact info for herdsman Terry Kress in the banner of our website www.BradZRanch.com

As the boss Jim Bradford said about this moment with cows and their new calves in fresh grass: “It’s such a relaxing scene.” Then nodded off to sleep in the passenger seat as he is known to do in relaxing places 🤣
