We focus on producing the highest quality breeding stock available. Not only do we win ribbons at the national show, our customers do too. In 2005, 2006 and 2007 half of the ribbons won in the Pen Show went to Spring Brook Ranch stock. In 2008 we won 12 ribbons, including both Grand Championships.

We retain a few exemplary animals each year to be a part of our foundation herd. We offer some of these "best of the best" animals for sale from time to time by private treaty. Because we have a large herd there are always individuals that do not fit into our seedstock breeding program and these we are motivated to sell. This does not mean they are ugly culls, for the most part they are far above average, it simply means they do not have a place in our breeding program and you can get a good buy on them.

As a large breeder we always have stock for sale. What we have available varies throughout the year; whether we have bred cows, cow/calf pairs or cows and calves. The Summer Catalog is now available. If you prefer, email or call and I will mail you a printed copy. The catalog is sorted by age with younger animals appearing first. I have included a list of 2007 herd bulls so you can see who the cows are exposed to. Be aware that prices can and will change without notice, some animals are priced at a young age and may get better (or worse) as they mature, this will be reflected in price changes.

The current catalog represents the best breeding stock collection we have offered to date. We have been building our foundation herd for several years and refining our gene pool. We now are able to offer some very well bred stock. The 2007 calf crop was outstanding, yielding the best group of Royal heifers we have produced to date. Wooly and refined Royals are very rare, most Royals tend to be plain. It has taken us many years of selective breeding to be able to produce heifers of this quality. Also included are the woolliest black animals we have offered, in the past we have kept all of these super and extreme wooly animals for ourselves. We have refined our breeding stock to the point that we can now offer a few of these very select animals for sale.

You will notice in the pedigrees our linebreeding efforts. Careful linebreeding combined with aggressive culling of inferior animals concentrates desirable genetic traits. These animals tend to breed true to phenotype and can be used to upgrade other stock through outcross breeding. As you select animals for your herd keep in mind what kind of calf you want to produce. If you purchase low end stock, that is what you will have to sell. A butcher grade steer will eat the same amount of feed as a ribbon winner.

The 2007 calf crop is the last one for F199 Dreadlock calves. In looking over our show records I believe that his offspring has won more national ribbons than any other bull, 15 first place or championship ribbons in three short years. If you want Dreadlock stock, now is the time to place the order.

Bottle Babies! (April, May and June) We are taking orders for bottle raised calves. Bottle babies are so pet they are almost a nuisance. If you want yaks that run up to you and beg for attention this is the way to go. Bottle heifers average around $1250 and steers are $800. If you are looking for pets, steers are the best and can be readily trained to pack.

Prices are based on the purchase of individual animals. Discounts are extended when multiple yaks are purchased. I will be happy to work with buyers that want to put together a starter herd of cows and a bull to assure that the individuals are compatible as breeders. If you see a yak you like but don’t like the price, make an offer.
