Noreen of Asman, AHCA #70,282, dob 4/17/2024

Looking for a great addition for your herd... look no further. This yearling heifer is the epitome of the Highland breed. It's hard not to fall in love with her calm personality and true Scottish style. You'll recognize many great animals and farms in her pedigree; including her infamous grandparents Yarnelle Farms Betula, Rioghail of Balmoral, HA Lady Natalie, and URick of Balmule. Her dam is one of our favorites from the well-known PNW herd of Cape St Mary's located on Washington's Lopez Island. While she is quite the looker, we expect her to be a very productive member of any herd, and is a great blending of genetics. Her registration with AHCA is currently pending.

Dam: Cape St Mary's Ymelda #57,063

Sire: STR Journey (ET,PV,D) #62,209

JAA Mootilda (AI,PV,D), #68,505, 4/29/2023

This two year old dun heifer is feminine and correct, with wide sprung ribs, and a calm and friendly demeanor. She is not only a looker, but she will be a productive addition to any herd. Her pedigree boasts impact dams and sires on both sides; her dam is on tract to become an impact dam herself and has a great udder. While it's hard for us to part with this amazing heifer, she is ready to breed this year, and will bring amazing results to your herd.

Dam: Little Girl of VOR (AI,D) #60,844

Sire: LEA Lars (PV,D) #56,945

Spring heifer update

Looking forward to warmer and dryer weather around the farm.  The wet doesn't stop the chores, and the few nice days we do have are filled to the brim.

Our almost yearling heifers have been going through their socialization classes, lol!  Aka, get them in a smaller paddock, work with them, and decide who makes the next cut for potential breeding stock.  A few will join the beef crew, a few will be retained, and we are faced with the decision of who will be offered for sale.

Make sure to follow our farm's FB page for the most up to date information on potential animals for sale.  We will be making an announcement in the next few weeks.

2024 NWHCA Spring Production Sale

Margaret of Asman has been consigned to the NWHCA Spring Production Sale, being held online at cowbuyer.com.  Lots will be available for bidding soon, with the auction closing on April 27th at 5pm PDT.

Margaret is a yearling heifer showing great potential along with a noteworthy pedigree. Her dam, Cape St. Mary's Vera, hails from the iconic Cape St. Mary's herd on Lopez Island, Washington with decades of breeding experience, great maternal instincts and amazing udders. Her sire, STR Journey, is the progeny of Rioghail of Balmoral and Yarnelle Farms Betula. He is a full sibling to STR Armageddon, the 2020 National Western Stock Show reserve grand champion. Our farm focuses on grass-fed beef, but Margaret would also hold her own in a show ring. She has a very calm demeanor, enjoys brushing, and has been started on the halter. With a 482# adjusted weaning weight, we are excited to see how Margaret will contribute to a successful breeding program.
