How the Bulls Are Developed

Ready to
go to work.

Development Facility
Veltkamp Livestock Feedlot — Manhattan, MT
11526 Gravel Pit Rd • 3 miles south off the I-90 exit

The bulls start their development ration around October 1st, when they are sorted by weight. They come off test around the end of January. BVD tested, fully vaccinated — and every bull sifted by a non-member panel for structure, performance and disposition.

A high-forage ration fed for a 3 lb. daily gain — not pushed, not fattened, developed to last. These bulls will be athletic and ready to work.

Every bull is disposition scored, and you'll find RightChoice accreditations throughout the catalog — ACE (calving ease), G+ (balanced genetic value) and ATM (terminal) — to help match a bull to your needs. About the accreditations →
