Weaned Heifers For Sale

We have now weaned all seventeen (17) heifers born in February and March.  They will soon be calfhood vaccinated, wormed, and given their other shots.  At that time they will be available for sale.  These 17 are all sired by LNH Rondo who is pictured on this blog; they should make fine beefalo cows in the future.

Farm Fest 2011

The 2011 Ozark Fall Farm Fest has been put to rest. The weather was beautiful from start to finish; cool, crisp mornings and pleasant sunshine all day. I thought the crowd was down a little from last year, but still a sizable number. We saw some old friends and hopefully made some new ones. 

There are still a lot of questions about beefalo; How do you get a beefalo? What is their meat like? Are they all this gentle? We still have a lot educating to do and if asked will try to answer everyone's questions.

Getting Ready for Farmfest 2011

The 2011 annual Fall Farmfest will soon be upon us.  The public can attend for three days, October 7th, 8th, and 9th all with FREE admission and Free parking.  Agri business vendors from all over will be attending to display their wares, as will farmers with their animals; goats, sheep, hogs, horses, mules, and cattle will be on hand; maybe even chickens.

 

We are taking four February born calves; two bulls and two heifers which are pictured below.  We are looking forward to renewing old acquaintances and meeting new folks who want to learn more about Beefalo.  See you at the Farmfest.

The Fair is Over!

From L-R: Yoko, Cleveland Williamson, Yellow Jacket, Gena Ussery, X-Man, Eugene Ussery

We always enjoy taking animals to the fair, but like the other exhibitors we are glad when we get home. As we mentioned on Facebook earlier (Red, White & Blue! Ussery Beefalo brought home one 3rd place, one 2nd place and TWO 1st places from the National Beefalo Show.We had a great time at the Ozark Empire Fair! -Pictures and commentary to come...) each of our four animals recieved a ribbon and we are happy about that!
Our bull, X-Man, never made it home as we transferred him to his new owner, Mark Cox. Mark has been a cattle judge and exhibitor in the past so we might see X-Man, or some of his off-spring at the fair in the future.
It will soon be weaning time time for our February calves and we will be selecting our entries for the 2011 Fall Farm Fest at he Ozark Empire Fairgrounds from that group. The days for the Farm Fest this year will be October 7th-9th, 2011. Remember: No admission or parking fees! We hope you can come!

Good Bye, Bulls

We have recently sold two of our young bulls. Mark Cox and his family, south of Norwood, near Skyline, have purchased our X-Man bull who will be showing at the Ozark Empire Fair on August 6th.
At the same time we were contacted by Mr. Cox we received a call from Laszlo Nemeti of Rogersville. Laszlo bought a beefalo bull from us a few years ago and now needed another one. He likes to get them young and raise them himself. We say "thanks" and "all the best"!

We Will Be at the Fair!

It will be Fair time next week and we are taking four animals that we will post for you.  Remember the National Beefalo Show is on Saturday August 6th at 10 A.M. in the Noel Boyd Center.  Here are photos of the four we are taking.

Hope to see you at the Fair!

New Calves

A couple months back I said we would try and post some pictures of this years calves;  it took longer than I anticipated, but finally we photographed a few, more heifers than bulls.  Here they are.

These calves will be weaned about the end of August and could be for sale shortly thereafter.
