Piedmontese-sired TRIPLETS doing great! (sorry sideways!)

Piedmontese calves grow beef fast!

I will be selling 265 (3 loads) of these 650-700 lb heifers on Thursday at Presho Livestock. Green and ready for summer grass, yard or breed. VolmerQualityFeederCattle Troy Stowater Adam Cotton

A 15 month old 2-copy Piedmontese bull..... We can them "2-copy" because they carry 2 copies of a unique gene that makes their beef consistently tender but also lean. Saying "2-copy" seems easier than saying "homozygous" 😀

But I was told Canada was the threat to the US cattle industry 🤷‍♂️

Some registered composite Piedmontese cattle can be homozygous Black, homozygous Polled - PLUS homozygous (2-copy) for the unique inactive myostatin gene that makes the beef consistently tender while being lean & high in protein.

Piedmontese crossed on Dairy breeds basically produce a top-end BEEF animal!

Fewer calories, less fat, higher protein - DIGESTIBLE and nutritious - Piedmontese Beef is also genetically TENDER.

I love this time of year. The egg plants are in full bloom! 😊

Know your cows…

Brian Roemmele A Piedmontese bull at 12 months old. The Piedmontese breed has a natural myostatin mutation (very functional cattle) providing more yield per animal of genetically tender, low fat, high protein beef.
