Optimizing our genetics for Southwest conditions by crossbreeding
Bar T Bar Ranch uses the advantages Mother Nature gives us while minimizing the impacts of variable rainfall. Here in the arid Southwest, our success depends on the ability to be flexible managers. Hybrids provide the simplest, most effective way to achieve heterosis — which means enhancing calf survival, breeding ability during drought conditions, efficiency on grass and in the lot, carcass yield, and quality grade. In addition to Gelbvieh and Angus bulls and females (both black and red), the Bar T Bar offers the Southwest’s largest selection of Balancers®.
Our results are measurable... our genetics are proven
Check our EPDs — they’re unparalleled. And our buyers must agree because 84 percent of our sales come from repeat customers and more than 50 percent purchase bulls sight-unseen. Each bull is DNA-profiled for tenderness, quality grade, and many other parameters, and they carry our own Female Fertility Index. Complete ultrasound data is provided as well as a PAP or FAA test at the buyer’s request. Our bulls eat an all-natural, no-grain, high-roughage diet and pass a breeding soundness exam.
We guarantee our bulls for the first 60-day breeding season.
All bulls are sold via private treaty. A complete list of new bulls will be posted after February 1, and you may select yours after March 1. Call to set up a time to view them at your convenience. Pick them up or let us de-liver them to your ranch or a central location nearby during the last week of April.
