Midwest Beef Cattle Consultants consists of two divisions.
The Total Beef Herd Health Program was initiated in 1988 with the goals of assisting beef producers in improving overall herd health and profit. To learn more about this program, click on the TBHH link on the navigation bar.
The genetics division supplies bulls to high quality commercial producers that have goals of producing easy keeping cattle that possess calving ease, vigor at birth, great disposition, excellent growth, mothering ability and outstanding carcasses. Our bulls have excelled at bull test stations in the Midwest and repeat customers purchase the majority of the bulls each year.
Since I am a veterinarian, herd health is of utmost importance to me. My cows have been tested for Johne's since 2002 and every cow has tested negative every year. I have also never had a case of persistently infected BVD in my herd.
Announcement
We currently have 21 bulls on test that will be sold in 2012. Bulls include Balancers, SimAngus and calving ease Angus.
Thank you to all the buyers that purchased herd-improving sires from us in 2011. We sold 17 bulls to 14 breeders across Indiana. We truly appreciate your confidence in our program. Repeat buyers were: Sutherlin Cattle, Margaret and Bob Coon, Manning Cattle Company, Dr. Steve Banet, Brooks Farms, Inc., David Keiser, David Brown, CGS Inc. and Danny Orr. First time buyers include: Ty Mungle and Steve Ferguson, Dr. Jill Bair-Dillman, Hal Sullivan and Ben Ahler. Thanks also to Katie Hutchcraft from Illinois for purchasing my top heifer this year and to AK Farm in Tennessee for buying a nice cow-calf pair this summer.
We will be weighing bulls the last week of January and expect to have our open house on Saturday, March 3, 2012 so please plan to join us for that event.

We have 21 outstanding bulls on test now and would be pleased for you to come and take a look. If you want calves that are born without assistance, hit the ground running, jump up to nurse and then wean off heavy, come and see your next herdsire. Their daughters will be in the 'keeper' pen because they are moderate, docile and fertile and the steers will sell with a nice grid premium for muscle and marbling. Call Tom at 219-279-2229 or Mark at 765-714-1092 to talk some bull(s). Mark would part with 1-3 females this fall/winter as we have about 12 ET calves due in the spring and I can't keep them all.
Also, if a cow is open in the fall, she goes to market. Commercial producers cannot tolerate infertile cows and neither can I. MBCC is a business, not an animal sanctuary.
No matter if you are purchasing my consultation services or my seedstock, the goal is the same; for you to have success in the beef business.
