High-Quality Seed Stock

Building better herds with superior genetics

At Valley Creek Farms & Livestock, we pride ourselves on providing the “right” genetics to jump-start or enhance your Red Angus herd. Our carefully curated seed stock serves as the foundation for a thriving operation, whether you are starting fresh or looking to elevate the quality and performance of an established herd. We began our journey by incorporating renowned western genetics, such as Ohlde and Calvo, which laid the groundwork with moderate frame cattle built for reliability and ease of management. By integrating advanced A/I genetics sourced from top breeders across the country, we are now breeding cattle that achieve heavier finishing weights, all while expertly maintaining unbeatable calving ease, low maintenance needs, and excellent maternal attributes.

Our commitment to quality is evident in every animal we raise. We focus on enhancing the inherent traits of our Red Angus through a strategic blend of traditional and innovative genetics. The result is cattle that are not only robust in size but also exhibit superior maternal quality—a crucial element for ensuring successful cow-calf operations. In addition to our traditional Red Angus breeding lines, we are excited to offer a few “Red Baldies,” a unique segment rapidly gaining popularity among cattle enthusiasts. These animals combine eye-catching genetics with solid performance characteristics, making them a highly sought-after addition to any herd. Whether you require cattle for registered bloodlines or prefer the flexibility of commercial stock, our diverse offerings are designed to meet a broad spectrum of production needs.

We offer a range of options to suit your specific herd requirements, including Bulls, Heifers, and Cows—with choices available as bred or open animals. This level of flexibility allows you to assemble a herd that aligns perfectly with your operational goals. Each animal is selected and raised with the utmost care, a true testament to our belief that quality seed stock is an investment in the future success of your agricultural enterprise. When you choose Valley Creek Farms & Livestock for your seed stock needs, you are not just purchasing cattle; you are embarking on a partnership built on shared values and a commitment to excellence.

Our dedication to our customers goes well beyond the sale. We stand firmly behind every animal we deliver, confident in the quality and performance of our genetics. If you have any questions, need further details, or wish to discuss how our stock can best serve your needs, our knowledgeable team is always eager to help. We believe in fostering long-term relationships and are passionate about ensuring your success. Farm visits by appointment are always welcome, providing you the opportunity to see our operation firsthand, meet our cattle up close, and experience the environment where our high-quality genetics are developed.
