Spring will be here eventually...at least we hope so! Lots of rain in northern Illinois over the past week and it sounds like more is in store for the coming week. Not much corn (if any) has been planted.
Lots of things happening around the farm. Wrapping up calving here the end of April and into the first part of May. The Jan/Feb. calves are really starting to take off. Breeding season is in full swing as well, and our first round of embryos went in this last week. If you are still deciding which bulls to use this spring, give the MCF bull lineup consideration. We have semen available on Airline, the 2010 Res. Grand Champion at Keystone. We also have a limited amount of semen on our newest herdsire, True Grit. He is an About Time son out of a 417L daughter. Lots of maternal, style and low birth weight!
Best of luck to all of our customers as the 2011 show season begins to pick up. We are planning to be up at Lancaster next weekend for their jackpot show. This year the Wisconsin Hereford Association is sponsoring a regional junior show in Monroe. That is only 40 minutes north of the farm, so if you are making the trip to the show please plan to stop by!
Last, but not least, Happy Easter to everyone!
