NILE
2011 and the AGBA Meeting - We are just back from the show, exhausted to say the least. The show
went very well - congratulations go out to Joel Jackson the new show superintendent for a job well done. There was a nice
turnout for the show although down from last year; I think 23 were exhibited. We ended up in the middle this year - alas no
bragging rights this time.
The AGBA Annual meeting and board meeting are during the show.
Joan Hoffman was ready for a break and now I am the new Vice President for our organization. I look forward to working with
Harley, Joyce and the rest of the board of directors to help keep our momentum in the year(s) to come. The Galloway Breed
is well placed in todays market to be "Highly Desired" for our Feed Efficiency, Moderate Mature Size & Carcass
Performance.
The Ranch has had an amazing calving season!
We've had 18 heifers and four bull calves. We have a very nice selection of females for you to
add to your herd or start a new one! Give us a call - we'd love to build you a package (package prices when you buy more than
one!) We also have 2 White bulls available. One is DD Ranch's Warehouse - he is 2.5 years old and DD Ranch's Xponent - he
is now 1.5 years old. Ready to work! When time is permitting, we can help with hauling depending how far away you are. Open
to the idea of "meeting in the middle!"
The DD Ranch
We are very proud to breed the finest
Galloway Cattle we can provide
todays cattle industry. With the new diversification into Percentage Lowline
Cattle we believe that we can offer something for everyone.
Both Galloway and Lowline
function very well on grass and are a very efficient fed beef product. With today's feed costs spiraling out of control, the
budget needs to "pencil."
We
utilize "Bovigen Technology" to identify Feed Efficiency. Our
herd bulls have All 8 Stars for Feed Efficiency. We also test for Marbling/Quality & Tenderness. These are
tools to help you know more precisely what you are adding to your herd besides Strong Conformation.
Galloway cattle are "Back to Basics" in Moderate Mature Cattle size. Our percentage Lowline cattle
are the avenue many breeders will want and need to make a dramatic change in the over all frame size of a commercial herd
in one breeding season.
