CURRENT SIRES
While we do house sires on the ranch, we do not utilize them in our Full Blood operation. We make them available for utilization on any heifer calves as well as utilize them in our F1, F2 and F3 operation.
We feel the best way to improve genetics is by utilizing semen from the leading sires of today then blending them with foundation sires of the past.
We are currently using the following sires in our AI and ET Program.
