Headed for the high country! We summer our cows in many areas around 10,000 feet in elevation. To get to our grazing permits we drive the herd about 25 miles over two days. It’s a time we look forward to. #yardleycattleco #ranching 🎥 @diehardcowboy_
Every ranch has its own unique way of making things work. Especially in different parts of the country. In our area we rely heavily on snowpack and rainfall for our summer pastures. We’re having a hot and dry summer but luckily we did have a pretty solid winter which makes for good grass on the mountain. What’s your system? #yardleycattleco #ranching #summerpasture
If your ranch truck could talk what would it say? I believe that the good ones could write a book. From warming up calves in the back seat to hauling trailer up a road more fit for a four wheeler. There’s nothing quite like a good ranch truck. #ranchtruck #ranchrig #cowboycadillac
The two types of embryo transfer explained. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages to be weighed in each situation. #embryotransfer #seedstock #yardleycattleco
Why we use Embryo Transfer to improve our herd. Maternal genetics are a huge part of what makes the best cattle. Perpetuating those maternal genetics can make ALL the difference. This is Part 1 of Embryo Transfer #yardleycattleco #seedstock #embryotransfer #simmental #angus #simangus #showcattle #showheifer

Breeding Basics… how do we select a good cross on our cattle? There are a lot of factors that go into selecting a bull to cross on a cow but a lot has to do with trying to improve on any traits. Take the best traits of a mother cow and try to find a bull that can add value and performance to her. #yardleycattleco #ranching #seedstock
It’s a busy time of year. Cows are being sorted and paired with bulls or selected for Artificial Insemination. The calves are also sorted for where the mother cow is headed. After branding, health check, ear tattoos, and tags the calves are sent back with the mother cows to head off to green grass for summer. All these steps help us to ensure good healthy calves, proper identification, and meeting regulations for summer grazing. #brandingseason #yardleycattleco #seedstock #simmental #angus #simangus #maineanjou
Sorting calves after branding. Each mother cow has also been sorted based on breeding. She has been paired with a specific bull or selected for our AI program. The calves are then reunited with their mothers and sent to their new locations. #ranching #sortingcalves #yardleycattleco
Here’s to the mammas out there. None of us would be here without em. #yardleycattleco #ranching
Saddling up and headed toward springtime. Our bulls are ready for breeding season and we can’t wait to see belly high green grass on the mountain. #yardleycattleco #simmental #seedstock #angus #simangus #ranching 🎥 @diehardcowboy_
The White House can try and erase this day but we will never forget what we’re celebrating! Christ has risen from the grave!!
We’re on the tail end of calving for the year. There are always a few nights through it all when the snow and cold make for long nights. Trying to keep newborn calves warm and praying for daylight. #calvingseason #seedstock #ranching
At Yardley Cattle Co structural correctness is essential. Our cattle walk 25 miles to and from the summer range that goes to 10,200 ft. elevation, so they have to be structurally correct. When you buy Yardley genetics you can bank on solid bone structure and correctness.
There’s no moment of the year quite like when that bull sale gate opens and a bull walks into the sale ring. We work year round for this day and we’re always grateful for those who have supported us through the years and continue to do so.
I don’t know of any better community than the agricultural community. We’ve seen the evidence of this recently with the Texas wildfires. We’re beyond grateful to be a part of it. Yesterday was our 51st annual bull sale. We want to thank everyone who was involved in making this an incredible event. To all of our buyers, thank you for trusting your future success to our genetics. We’ve put a lifetime into this herd and will continue to give you the absolute best. Our annual Female Sale will be in November.🎥 @diehardcowboy_
