Winter 2024/Spring 2025

The winter of 2024 was extremely mild. We had a few days of really cold weather, but it was nothing like the previous years.

This year, our hay supply has been so much better than before. During the drought of 2022 and 2023, we struggled with poor-quality, weed-filled hay. However, we changed suppliers, and now the quality is almost as good as horse hay—yay!

Having grandsons help with the hay makes it even more special. Teaching them how to drive a mule has been so much fun—yikes!

Starting 2025 is already shaping up to be a great year. We are seeing a surge in fullblood females and shipping a load to the Midwest and the Southeast to Wagyu breeders.

Babies, babies and babies - Fall 2024

We’re thrilled to announce that all of our 2024 fall calves have arrived! This year’s lineup includes calves sired by Mayura L0010, Kitaguni Jr., and Sumo Cattle Company’s Shikikan. For inquiries, call 503-803-3988.

End of 2024 Summer for Our Wagyu Cattle

As summer winds down, our herd of Wagyu cattle is looking strong and healthy. The long days of grazing in the lush pastures have done wonders for their development. The warm weather has allowed them to put on good weight, while their diet and care have ensured the marbling, characteristic of Wagyu beef, is coming along beautifully.

With fall approaching, we’re preparing for the seasonal shift—ensuring their nutrition remains optimal and planning for cooler weather management. The end of summer marks a successful season for the herd, and the future looks promising for these fullblood cattle.

The horses are still out in the pasture, enjoying the last bit of warm weather before the winter season truly begins. It's always a beautiful sight to see them roaming freely, but soon enough, they'll be moved closer for the colder months. Everything is in place for both the horses and the Wagyu cattle as we prepare for the upcoming season.

SPRING INTO SUMMER 2024

Winter of 2023 was very mild and what a blessing. Some days were very cold but as Texas Winter continues on, we had warm air come and go. Our “Victor” was born on one of the coldest Winter days. During our morning feeding we discovered that Victor was born but barely alive. With lots of help from our vet, Victor made it. Gentle and sweet is Victor’s nature and it fun to see him playing and running with the herd.

In Texas for the past five years we have been in a drought. This past March rains started and haven’t stopped as of yet. Our pastures are green with high grass. All our cows are happy and getting really fat.  In our back pasture we put our four bred mommas who are enjoying the lush grass and quiet pastures.   Getting ready for fall babies. 

On to 2024...

As we are finishing up the year, we feel so blessed with all the great opportunities 2023 has bestowed upon us. Thank you to all of our customers and we truly appreciate you doing business with us. 

We have shipped cattle not only to our great customers here in Texas, but to Colorado and Missouri. Excited to see these herds growing into larger herds. Talk about feeling like having a “proud parents” moments seeing your cattle leave the ranch to their new homes. 

The end of year (October) welcomed five new baby calves. We love watching them roam around the pastures. The new babies already know the morning routine to come into the pens for their feeding.  

We were so honored to have the International Wagyu group come to visit our ranch. Meeting and connecting with other breeders from around the world was so insightful and with that be long life relationships. 

Now on to 2024…
