This week we are at PCC® headquarters in Cheyenne Wells, CO evaluating yearling bulls for the CO spring sale.  It’s always good to get together with the PCC crew and other cooperative producers.  Someone has said that 80% of your life is made up of the people you surround yourself with so it’s great to be with a positive crowd.  A visitor commented that it’s rare to hear people enjoy working cattle together without yelling or swearing!

During the next two days, we will evaluate 220 yearling bulls for masculinity, thickness, muscling, structural soundness, overall appearance, feet, toes, preputial prolapse and disposition.  They will go through the chute to measure weight, hip height, ribeye shape and intramuscular fat. 

The best part about these forage-developed bulls is that what you see is what you get.  They won’t fall apart when you put them to work in a real-world environment.  They can continue to grow and gain weight during their first breeding season.  I’m also impressed with the consistency of the group from top to bottom.  You can look forward to these bulls selling April 20th, 2026.  For more info, go to pharocattle.com.  I’ll see you next time on the Herd Quitter® Minute.
