Crunch Time - Sale Week

Sale week is here!  Everything is coming together nicely for this weekend and we look forward to hosting everyone Saturday and Sunday for the 2nd Annual Football Frenzy Bid-Off Sale.  The cattle look great and we are anxious to display the cattle.  There is definitely something for everyone, whether you are looking for next year's show heifer or steer prospect, your next foundation female or flush/embryo/semen packages.  Details and information on all sale lots can be found on our website, http://www.mudcreekfarms.com/

The past few days have been unbelievable for us as we had quite a bit of success at World Beef Expo and also received exciting news today from the AHA.   

- Friday began by earning Reserve Calf Champion with MCF 19N Nitra 06Y ET.  This heifer is Lot 1 in our sale this weekend!  
- Kendra Snyder exhibited MCF Enuff Envy 25X, a May yearling, and was Division Champion.  Congrats Kendra and family on doing a great job with Envy.  She was purchased in last year's Football Frenzy Bid-Off.  
- To top it off, our April heifer, H GH Elegance 0111 ET, was named Champion Heifer!  We own this female with the McMillan family, and Lauren did an outstanding job showing her all year!  A flush and embryo packages sell in our sale on her full sister, H GH Adin 9019 ET.

Our great day continued in the bull show as PHH PCC 812 True Grit 002 was named Champion Hereford.  On Saturday evening he was named Supreme Champion Bull.  What a thrill for us and the Pierce family!  Great job to Travis and his crew!  A semen package sells on Grit in the sale this weekend.

Today we received a letter from the AHA informing us that AA Airline 972 ET, our senior herd sire, had been named the Northeast Region Show Bull of the Year.  A semen pacakge sells on Airline this weekend in the sale.  Needless to say, the past few days have been incredibly memorable!!!  Thanks to everyone who complimented and congratulated us!

More Sale Updates

Less than 3 weeks away from our 2nd Annual Football Frenzy Bid-Off Sale.  The cattle are really turning it on and are looking great.  It's very cliche to say, but we feel this is the best set we've had to date.  From top to bottom there is quality for everyone to sort through. 

If you can't make it to the sale October 1st and 2nd, but would like to view the cattle...we would love to show them to you.  If you are in the area for DelHawk or Lowderman's sale this weekend please stop by, we are not far from them.  Call Andrew @ 815-238-2381 to set up an appointment. 

SALE FEATURE:  Not only are we excited to sell our heifers and steers, but we are equally thrilled to expand our offering this year to include flushes and embryo packages on two of our lead donors, Kella and Adin.  This is a great opportunity to build your herd from the ground up with proven and exciting females.  You have the chance to buy a flush on both and breed them to the bull of your choice.  Flush details on the website. http://www.mudcreekfarms.com/
