Ruth Simmentals - Blue River Gang Sale [2/7/26]

44th Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Saturday, February 7

We were honored to be part of the ownership group for BAR CK RED EMPIRE and have utilized him heavily across both our fall and spring breeding programs, with plans to continue doing so. Since his progeny were first offered, Red Empire offspring have topped our sales in the bull, open, and bred divisions. Multiple daughters have been retained for our own herd, where they are proving to be phenomenal mothers. For those seeking females with elite fertility, outstanding udders, sound structure, and backed by great numbers, Red Empire daughters come highly recommended.

We believe this female is the most phenotypically complete Red Empire daughter offered this year. Her dam has been a consistent, dependable producer for us year after year, and we expect this one to follow suit. She is bred to the exciting new sire Night Owl of Griswold’s, setting up a mating that impresses both on paper and in person. Vet called safe to the AI date, due shortly after the sale.

This female is the kind that will impress both in person and on paper, ranking in the top 20% of the breed for nine traits. It’s rare to find one this phenotypically complete while also backed by such a powerful EPD profile. Her dam is an attractive Shear Force daughter tracing to Sloup’s Cornerstone donor Red Suspicion. She is AI’d to Jack Red, creating a mating that promises to be just as impressive on paper as it is in the flesh. She is to close to call off the preg check but we will know more on sale date.
