Like the wise folks say... “You can’t improve what you don’t measure.” #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #hiefers #datacollection #ultrasounding
We had a blast at the 2021 4-H Livestock Clinic yesterday. Roughly 45 kids participated in the beef segment where we covered topics such as cattle nutrition, care and handling, and show ring etiquette. We want to wish all attendees the very best of luck as you begin your beef projects this year! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #cattle #youth #4h #showclinic
We’re officially 8 days into the 2021 calving season and we’ve already welcomed 142 new Hereford babies into the world all sired by natural service. A wise man by the name of Gene Wiese once said “In the cattle industry, fertility is king!” and even through one of the most drought stricken areas of Iowa back in the summer of 2020 our herd sires and females have lived up to that motto! 🙏 #teamhereford #wieseandsons #herefordcattle #cattle #calves #sunset #calvingseason2021
It may currently feel like -24 degrees out but scenery like this can warm your heart right up... #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #heifers #2021 #iowabeefexpo #sunset
We’re taking the time to administer pre-calving vaccinations to these Wiese matrons this foggy morning. It won’t be too long now until the next generation of “Good Doin’” genetics begin to hit the ground! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #cows #foggy #morning #calving2021
It never takes long for the yearling bulls to get nestled into their fresh bedding! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #gooddoin #bulls #fresh #bedding #happycattle
Though 2020 has proved challenging for many; we’ve been blessed with one final breathtaking morning here on the ranch. We’d like to thank our friends, family and customers for believing in us as we continue our families mission to develop the best “Good Doin’ Bulls” we possibly can for the beef industry! God bless and we wish all of you a prosperous 2021 and beyond! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #herefords #winterwonderland

The Iowa State Livestock Judging Team stopped by this chilly morning to get some quality practice in! Best of luck to this great group of individuals down at Oklahoma City and future contest! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #bulls #iowastateuniversity #livestockjudging #team
We took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and finally got an updated picture of JDH AH Prominent 21G ET. This bull keeps getting better with age, and we are more than excited to see his first progeny hit the ground this next spring. A great EPD profile, exceptional phenotype, and an outcross pedigree to many mainstream stud bulls. Contact us at anytime for your semen inquiries! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #bull #prominent
This year has shown us more than ever to give thanks to the loved ones around you. From our family to yours Happy Thanksgiving everyone! #teamhereford #wieseandsons #hereford #bulls #happythanksgivng
