We will have two heifers in the June production sale. The sale is ONLINE ONLY
Lot # 10 : CSF Balsam
Pedigree # 61,453
DOB: 05/13/20
CSF Balsam is a wide bodied, broody heifer, with exceptional spring of rib. Her dam, Gray Owl’s Brianna, is a maternal half-sister to the Champion bull, Bearach. Brianna is an impact dam who has produced the productive bulls, CSF Halvdan the Black, CSF John Yuma, and our current herd bull, CSF Roosevelt, in addition to the showy frosted female, CSF Butternut, who we’ve kept in the herd and who has a first calf due in June. Balsam scored in the top quarter of our tested animals according to the Igenity Production Index and tied for our best female score for Stayability, a measure of how long a productive cow will stay in the herd. Balsam’s sire, BRF Crius, was a deep, long, high quality bull sired by the Scottish style bull, We Tired Joc.

CSF Echo is a long bodied and structurally correct heifer with good spring of rib. She is the highest rated animal of the thirty two animals we have had tested for Igenity’s genetic markers linked to meat quality (tenderness, marbling, ribeye area, and hot carcass weight). She is the fifth calf out of CSF Emmylou, a sound, productive eight year old cow who has calved every year from 2017 through 2022. Echo’s sire, CSF Roosevelt, is a four year old bull from the GOF Ralph line through CSF Rutherford, a division winner is Denver. Roosevelt has sired sound, correct and attractive calves for us in 2021 and again in 2022 with more anticipated in 2023.
