Registered Heifers
In our registered heifer program, we work to amplify the same standards that we have for our cows. We raise heifers that show a gentle disposition and good weaning weights. It is important that our heifers inherit certain traits to add capacity, depth, and quality structure into their future calves.
The B.A.R does not believe in supplemental feeding of their heifer calves up to weaning. We have never used creep feed and never will. Our goal is to provide you with base genetics you can trust and BUILD on. Studies have shown that the additional energy gained by feed can lead to fat deposits in the udder and negatively affect that heifer’s ability to milk over her lifespan. Creating yearling heifers that are too fat not only decreases their ability to mature and ovulate but also negatively affects their estrous synchronization.
Wayne only keeps cows who are excellent mothers with great milking traits so that their progeny can offer the same things back to any herd. The EPD’s on our livestock are backed by decades of powerful breeding! The ranch works regularly to cull any problematic traits from their cows. Our program is a foundation for any operation who wants to enhance cow and calf performance overall! This is ensured through regular genetic testing, so that we can only offer the best heifers to commercial and registered buyers, always.
