Schiefelbein Farms 19th Annual Angus Bull Sale "You Buy, We Bid"
Schiefelbein Farms is owned by Frank and Frosty Schiefelbein, along with all of their sons who farm and produce this widely known herd of cattle. This family has been in the Angus business for over 55 years. They have selected their cow herd over the years to be functional, efficient cattle that can excel in the feedlot and on the rail.
The Schiefelbein family feeds a lot of cattle and they like to come and bid on their customer’s calves, especially in the sale barns in South Dakota. Last year this family purchased 20,000 of their customers’ calves, and probably bid on that many more.
There was interest in this sale from around the nation, and the sale was very strong from start to finish. This was certainly the strongest set of bulls that Schiefelbein’s have brought to Faith. The bulls were sold in catalog order, by sire groups. It was a good way for the commercial men to evaluate the different sire groups.
The sale day weather was good, and a big crowd was on hand for the start of this great auction.
Top selling bull of the day was Lot 98, selling for $7,250 to Mickey Simons from White Owl, SD. He was Schiefelbein Captin 139 and sired by Connealy Lead On.
