RDD Genetics Ring the Bell at Creekstone Farms Premium Beef

Following is a spreadsheet summarizing some general carcass information on over 2,000 head of customer cattle that were harvested at Creekstone Farms Premium Beef during June, July & August 2007.  The data is compiled from a mix of steers and heifers originating from six different bull customers along with the feeder end of our own production.  Note the consistency from one herd to the other.  More documented data that RDD Genetics Git’R’Done.

Deiter Genetics Excel in Recent Carcass Contests

In our continuing effort to evaluate & document the carcass merit of Deiter Bros. Genetics, we elected to finish the balance of our 2004 calf crop, those that did not make the bull and/or replacement heifer groups. The cattle that make up the information below were predominantly implant free and finished at our home feedlot. The first drafts of cattle were sold to Creekstone Farms Premium Beef, LLC, Arkansas City, KS on their performance grid and we are pleased and proud of the results:
