Hester Cattle Company

Hester's Sox (Imperial x Hester's Blond Beauty) with her Payroll baldie heifer. Hester's Red Rose (Honor Guard x Hester's Red Velvet) with her Moon bull calf. Hester's Sox is completely outcrossed from older genetics on her dam's side, going back to Hester's Personality and Hester's Mercedes Lady. She is exactly what we are breeding for with phenotype and genotype. Her numbers reflect older genetics, but her heifer will easily wean 800 - 900 lbs. with her dam's high butterfat milk. Regardless of numbers, hard to find a female who will perform like Sox. We expect her to be in production until she's 15.

Hester's Black Magic
Money Maker x Hester's Sugar (Highlife x Hester's Ebony).
Super long, super deep, incredible EPD's, out of an Ebony daughter (first calf heifer). This cow family is sheer power and consistency, going back 8 generations in our herd. We will be flushing his dam Sugar to Money Maker and expect to average 50 oocytes like her twin sister.

Super excited about this March Money Maker bull calf (Hester's Black Magic). His young dam, Hester's Sugar, is a Highlife daughter out of our donor Hester's Ebony (owned by Zach Nordby).

He has great number matched with a powerful cow family that's mostly outcrossed on the dam's side. The video of Sugar is from last summer.

He is for sale when he's weaned, and we will retain semen rights.

New Copperhead heifer, her Dreamboat momma had her yesterday and hid her in the heavy trees and blackberry bushes. Took my dad 2 hours to find her. Love when a momma cow still has the instinct to do her job like this.

48 #1 eggs today out of Hester's Ebony via a Trans Ova Flush. We will be fertilizing eggs with MR SR HIGHLIFE G1609 and MONEY MAKER J801.
