We are located in southwest Missouri near Carthage and East of Joplin. Our roots have always been in the cattle industry. We have bred and raised purebred Charolais cattle since 1993. Starting in 2000, we added Red Angus to part of the herd to create our first  “Mellow Yellow”  cattle.  Embryo transfer and artificial insemination plays a major role in our day to day production.   See more about us here. 

• Commercial Bull Production -Charolais Bulls in volume, is our main business.  We have years of proven customer satisfaction. Our bulls are known for their good dispositions, sound feet and legs, easy calving, and fast growing calves. We produce both purebred and hybrid seed stock.  More recently Red cattle from Japan Akaushi cattle genetics  have been added to our Mellow Yellow line of hybrid bulls. Charolais Cattle with Performance and Maternal Value. 

• Eye Appeal -As long as commercial feeder calf buyers want to see what they are buying, eye appeal is very important.  We have proven that performance and carcass cattle can look good too.  

Welcome to our 31st Charolais Bull Sale Over 80% of our bulls rank above the breed average (203.59) for the TSI index. See page 2 for a full explanation. In simple terms, it is an index that combines several EPD’s. Depending on your selection we have all the performance that you need. Maybe just as important, our bulls are developed in hot fescue pastures for a sound and productive life. Our 18-month-old bulls will not fall apart when turned out. More pounds and buyers wanting to pay-up for your calves is a huge part of the picture. Equally as important is no problem Hybrid Vigor. Planned genetics are the main focus of our breeding programs. Utilizing heterosis is not fake news. Poultry, swine and grains are light years ahead of the cattle industry when it comes to genetics. My question to you is, “Why not have it all.” We hope to see you ring side sale day. However, for those who cannot attend, we will be live on the internet. Just like our last four sales www.cowbuyer.com will broadcast our sale. Plus, we will be happy to take your bid over the phone. Photos of key reference sires are scattered throughout the sale book. The weekend prior to the sale, videos of requested bulls will be posted on our web site here. When you find a bull you would like to have videoed, please call. Once again, the sale will be broadcast live. If there is anything we can do to help with your next big investment in making both your cows and your banker happy, let us know.
