Stephens Ranch

It’s calving season, one of our favorite times of year. My brother-in-law Randall McMinn takes pictures of the new babies and sends them to me since I’m not there to see them. He got a great shot this morning. Thought I would share it with it you all.

A before and after of JBS Drogheda Gold’s Arbitrator aka Judge.

It’s been along time since we posted on this not so little fella anymore. He’s been in good hands at our friend Julia LeCroy’s ranch having fun and growing up and into his pedigree. This is Diamond and Delani’s April 2024 c**t we call Judge. Looking forward to getting this handsome guy in the show ring next year!

D & K Elite Construction LLC We'll get the job done!

The twins are thriving. She is a great mom.

We are in full swing of calving season and had a set of healthy twins today.

Diamond just got off maternity leave and made a tremendous post-baby debut at the OK State Fair show. So happy and proud for her!!!

Weaning buddies ❤️

Weaning time has commenced. We took Carbon and Willow over to Kate’s today to meet Diamond and Judge before the official separation begins. Diamond is slowly getting back to work gearing up for the fall show season. Willow will go back to the ranch next week. Judge so wants to play with Carbon but she wants nothing to do with him. Bet they are buddies by the end of the week.

Thunderstruck 717 crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday. He passed away under a pine tree on the ranch. He was an amazing bull and his legacy lives on in all the bulls and heifers he produced one of which won 2nd place at the Houston Livestock show last year. Farewell our big, handsome boy.

Congratulations to the Aults on their purchase of two of our young bulls. You picked some really nice ones!
