Repeat Customers, Our Favorite Kind!

We were pleased to receive a call from Mr. and Mrs. Norman Grable of Warsaw, Missouri. They are repeat customers as it is their third time to order meat from us. They always purchase about a year's supply of beef. They say they only eat beefalo meat.
We are always grateful for repeat customers and wish them all the best in the coming year! We look forward to providing them with more quality beefalo meat in years to come!

Tiajauna Goes to the Fair... AGAIN!

One of the animals we were planning on taking to the fair, Uzi, decided to be uncooperative so we will be taking Tiajauna to the fair instead.
This will be Tiajauna's fourth year at the fair. She turned three last April and is due to become a mother for the second time right around the time of the fair.
We are getting Willie, Xanthippe, and Xylina ready for the Beefalo Show as well and are looking forward to seeing all the other beefalo and visiting with all of our beefalo friends and supporters.
There should be about 40 to 50 beefalo present this year at the Ozark Empire Fair.

New Beefalo Farmers!

Last week we sold two yearling plus heifers to Pam Cook who is currently serving in the National Guard at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Pam is originally from Norwood, Missouri and the heifers will be "residing" at her parents' farm. Pam's parents, Earline and the late Edwin Dennis, had a herd of White Park cattle, but purchased a beefalo bull from us a couple of years ago and are now showcasing a crop of young beefalo calves. Pam's brother-in-law, Joe Rogers, is quite pleased with the young calves and is excited about the two new heifers. We look forward to visiting and seeing the young calves. All the best to Pam and her family!

Pictured above are Pam's new heifers.

Gearing up for the Fair!

Ussery Beefalo is gearing up for the Ozark Empire Fair in Springfield, Missouri, August 5th thru the 8th, 2010.
We are taking four females ranging in age from two and half months to two years. They are Uzi, 2 years, Willie, 17 months, Xanthippe, 5 months and Xylina, 2.5 months.
Some of you may remember Tiajauna being at the fair with us for the last three years. Tiajauna is due to become a mother for the second time during the time of the fair and unfortunately there is no longer a birthing center on the fair grounds, so she will remain on the farm this year.
As always, we look forward to the fair, showing our beefalo and visiting with friends and neighbors. We hope to see you there!
