Holden Herefords

HH Advance 4056M ET has grown out to be an exceptional 2 year old herd sire. Purchased by Barber Ranch, GKB Cattle, and Colyer Herefords in our 2025 Sale. I saw some outstanding ET calves at GKB yesterday and we are getting great reports on the calves at Barbers and Colyers.
His dam will be one of the leadoff donors in our Fall Female Sale in late September. She is 8 years old and still scores 9-9 on udder quality.

Happy St Patrick’s Day to everyone. It’s muddy and windy in Valier this morning. Snow is disappearing fast.
26 head loaded and headed to Texas, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Appreciate Bob Woolsey and Craig Teal for the outstanding job they do for us.

It’s a very snowy morning in northern Montana. We have 6-8” of snow on the ground and it’s still coming down. Very blessed and thankful for the incredible moisture this storm has brought.
Continued prayers for all of the people affected by the fires in Nebraska. Our hearts go out to them all. Wish we could send this snow that way.

Very thankful for the moisture we have received in the last 24 hours. It was very needed and more snow is predicted through tomorrow night.
Praying for all the families affected by the big fires in Nebraska. Hopefully we can send some moisture that way.

We are beyond thankful for everyone that helped make our 60th Annual Sale our best ever. It was a fantastic day and our heartfelt appreciation to everyone that bid, bought, attended, and participated online. We had a huge crowd.
Bulls sold to 26 different states and to Mexico.
The demand for quality Hereford Bulls and females is through the roof right now. We had a lot of new customers along with many repeat customers that have bought bulls from us for many years. Exciting times for our breed and the cattle business. We look forward to continuing to raise the best Line One Herefords in the world.

It’s sale day. Definitely been a crazy morning and feels like we have had all 4 seasons in the last 48 hours.
Got some snow on the ground but the sun is out and sale cattle are penned.
If you are unable to attend online bidding is available through LiveAg, LiveAuction, or Superior.
We had a great turnout for the dinner last night. Thanks to Buffalo Joes for getting everyone fed.
