Spring 2009 - News
Spring greetings from MCF! Calving season is well under way, and the calves are finally able to enjoy some "spring-like" weather.
This year's calf crop is very exciting and is shaping up to be our best yet. Sires represented include leading AI sires including P606, Easy Deal, Legacy, Legend 242, Online, Moler and McAllen. We also have an exciting group of calves sired by one of our herd sires, Recon.
Continue to visit the website over the next 2-3 months as we begin to post pictures of future show prospects, replacement females and bulls.
The 2009 Illini Classic held at the Illinois Beef Expo was again a success. Mud Creek sold two show heifer prospects and two embryo packages to breeders in Illinois, Wisconsin and Kentucky. Thanks to all who supported our program. See results from the auction at the bottom of this page.
We recently added YouTube videos of a few of the calves that we sold last fall. They are available for viewing on the "Cattle for Sale" page.
The big news around the farm is the addition of our newest herdsire,
CSF 122L Creek 203R ET. Creek will be used heavily in 2009 on our mature cows as well as heifers. Semen for sale at $20/unit. View more detailed information on this exciting herd bull on the "Creek" page.
As always, if you have any questions or just want to talk cattle, please give us a call!
