Over the last 25 years we have been shaping our Limousin herd for SucceSS . Starting with powerful herd sires that stick to the basics of "BEEF" thick & naturally fleshing. Culling strongly for "Do it themselves Ranch cows" that graze the hills and bring in the profits! With strict attention to consistency, fertility, longevity, calving ease, udders, feet & legs, we have reached a point where we feel the herd quality has come together on all ends. We have developed a fabulous set of Working Ranch cows: Fullblood -or- Purebred, Red -or- Black, Polled -or- Horned QUALITY is all that matters.

All the animals are raised ranch style for Long term SucceSS . We have two herds of registered Limousin cattle. A February calving herd of about 125 cows that produce the Grass Country Yearling Bulls sold the 1 st Friday in April at the Ranch. These bulls are calved out from Jan 25 th to March 7 th for a tight 42 day calving season. These pairs can be seen grazing the hills near Rumsey from May until October. The calves are weaned in November, and the Top end of the bulls are selected and put on test at the ranch for the Grass Country Bull Sale. They are fed a good Growing ration of silage, chopped hay, and barley at 1% of their body weight. This system has the bulls looking good for Sale day, but most importantly - they STILL look good in YOUR pasture during Breeding!

The second herd of about 125 are TRUE Ranch Cows - They Graze in the hills most of the year. They calve on grass in May 2-3 miles from home - (Calving ease and mothering ability are essential). These calves are weaned in December and the cows go back out to the hills to rustle for the winter. The calves are back grounded until May. The potential Bulls for the Grass Country Bull Sale are turned back out on grass until October, when they come in and go on to the same ration as the yearling bulls. These 2yr olds are NEVER offered for sale until the Grass Country Bull Sale.

All our calves are branded with SS on the Right Hip which has come to symbolize the SucceSS our bulls will bring to your pasture. This brand was Registered in 1943 by Stan Richmond Sr. and it is with pride we brand all our Calves with our stamp of SucceSS. Our Moto is Satisfaction Fully Guaranteed: a satisfied customer is our number 1 priority! We are thrilled with the SucceSS of the Grass Country Bull Sale and are confident that the powerful genetics that raised the Grass Country Cattle will work great in YOUR herd. TRIED TESTED & TRUE!!
