At Crawford Angus, our genetics are built around the combination of developing superior feedlot cattle without compromising maternal traits. We believe in using the latest data and technology that is available for choosing new genetics to access and we finish out every calf born on our farm that isn't kept as a replacement or sold as breeding stock. The finished cattle are sold through USPB to get carcass data back so it can improve the accuracy of the carcass EPDs on the sires we use. Our bulls offered for sale are measured for birthweight, weaning weight, yearling weight, scrotal circumference, hip height, carcass ultrasound and they have confirmed parentage and increased accuracy on their EPDs through the DNA profile. We believe in developing our bulls for longevity and athleticism, so they are run on grass and hand-fed from weaning in September until our sale in March. We have several feedyards we work with to help place customers' calves for retained ownership and get results on how the cattle fed and can assist customers in marketing through USPB to Iowa or Kansas plants.
