Good bye X-Factor! Hello New Beefalo Farmers!

We are happy to report that we have sold the young bull X-Factor to the Deer Run Beefalo Farm in Lebanon, Mo.  This farm is operated by Tony Flores. Tony is a newcomer to the Beefalo industry, but is very passionate about Beefalo and its health benefits. 

Tony is buying a steer from us as well. That steer is ready for harvest and Tony is having him inspected so he will be able to sell the meat. If you live in and around the Lebanon area give him a call if you want to sample some Beefalo.

We say "welcome" to Tony and his family and wish them all the best in their future endeavors.

Bull For Sale!

We are posting a couple of pictures of a young bull we have for sale. X-Factor is a bull we took to the Fall Farmfest in October. He is 37.03% Bison and his date of birth is 3/02/10. As you can see by his bison percentage his calves from any beef cow will be considered Beefalo. He will soon be a year old and should be ready for service by May. As you can see he is halter broke and quite gentle.
