Weaning time is right around the corner here at FarmBoy Farms in Hebron, IL!

This bull calf in the video has really stood out to us all summer. He’s been one of those calves that catches your eye every time you’re around the herd, and we’re excited about what the future holds for him. He’s structurally sound, easy keeping, and pretty muscular at just 6 months of age. Once we begin artificially inseminating next year, this guy will be used as a cleanup bull, giving us a chance to put some of his genetics back into the herd.

We’ll also have three of his half brothers available for sale in late-October, who are equally as impressive. Customer will have the option to purchase them as either bull calves or steers. They can be registered as well if the customer desires.

As we get closer to weaning, we’ll have more than just these handful of bull calves for sale. We’ll have a group of heifers and other bull calves available once they get closer to 205 days old. We’ll also be sharing more pictures, videos, and information on all calves. Keep an eye on the page, or reach out to us directly if you’re looking for a quality prospect this fall!

We’re excited to announce that our girl Shorty welcomed a healthy 73-pound bull calf yesterday afternoon! This is her third bull calf in a row.

If you’ve followed our page for a while now, you may have seen a few posts about Shorty. She’s one of the more unique cows in our herd. She’s one of the longest tenured cows we have and is a moderately framed 8 year old cow. Every time she’s expecting, she somehow manages to look much bigger than the rest of the herd. It’s always a good reminder that appearances can be deceiving when it comes to estimating calf size!

Despite looking like she was carrying a giant calf, Shorty delivered a strong, healthy 73-pound bull calf and is doing a great job as a mom.

We’re thankful for another successful calving and look forward to watching this little one grow. Be sure to congratulate Shorty on her newest addition!

19 calves down, 1 to go!

Today marks two years since FarmBoy Farms got started with Black Angus cattle, and what a rewarding journey it has been so far. We had to doublecheck that it’s only been two years because it feels much longer than that! This video is the first 5 pairs that were delivered to our farm, exactly two years ago to the day.

We’re proud of the progress we’ve made in such a short amount of time and excited about the future of this herd. From the calves hitting the ground to watching the cows develop into productive females, it’s been a journey full of lessons, growth, and rewarding moments.

Thank you to everyone who has supported FarmBoy Farms these last two years. We’re looking forward to many more years of raising quality Black Angus cattle and continuing to improve with every generation.

Meet Cupid — one of the standout bull calves here at FarmBoy Farms who was born on Valentine’s Day out of a first calf heifer.

One thing that’s always been important to us is temperament. We’re around our cattle every single day, and we believe good cattle should not only perform well, but also be easy to handle and calm both out in the pasture and in stressful situations. Docility matters a great deal to us. They all aren’t pets and nor do they need to be, but attitude problems simply aren’t tolerated within our herd.

Cupid has already shown the kind of disposition we strive for — quiet, easygoing, and respectful while still being a powerful, good-looking calf with a bright future ahead of him. We take a lot of pride in building a herd that combines quality genetics with practical, functional traits that make life easier for both cattle and cattlemen.

We’re excited to watch this young bull continue to grow and develop!

Big day here at FarmBoy Farms — we added THREE new cow/calf pairs and one bred heifer to the herd today! We’re excited about the quality and potential these females bring to our program and the future of our genetics.

This 803 is a beaut to look at. She is without a doubt one of the prettiest females in the pasture. She’s everything you want in a mature cow — structurally sound in her feet and legs, top notch udder and teat quality, deep bodied, moderately framed, and the kind that raises easy fleshing calves year after year. She has a heifer calf alongside her right now. Cows like her are the foundation of a strong cow herd, and we’re proud to have her here.

Looking forward to watching these cows and calves continue to develop and contribute to the future of FarmBoy Farms!

Big news here at FarmBoy Farms! We’ve added another outstanding cow/calf pair to the herd!

This young cow brings with her an exceptional pedigree, sired by a Tehama Tahoe son and out of a dam who is an OCC Paxton daughter. That kind of unique lineage doesn’t come around every day, and it’s something we’re excited about.

She has all the makings of a foundational female for our program, with the genetics to move our herd forward in a big way. When you combine proven bloodlines like these with strong maternal potential, the future looks bright.

Even more exciting, her heifer calf is sired by a proven bull known for producing well-rounded, high-quality females — adding another layer of confidence in the future of this pair.

We’re looking forward to watching them develop and seeing the impact they’ll have on our herd for years to come. Stay tuned, the best is yet to come!

FarmBoy Farms in Hebron has been a local egg supplier for quite some time now. We raise Leghorn chickens for the best quality eggs around. Farm fresh. Our girls are well taken care of. They're well fed and watered, twice a day and they have a huge coop/run that I built them over 5 years ago. They can also free range but over all they love their coop/run.
Our eggs are sold by the tray. We sell 30 eggs for $15 if you'd like to get on Christine Sawvell customer egg list, please contact her. Or if you just want to stop by the farm please do so, just message Ray Jr Sawvell first and he'll meet you at the main house.
