Lot 3: First embryo offering by VL Rojo Mocho 92/2 (P) and a former National Show Division Winner!

In this offering, we present our premier genetics with a female sexed embryo package as progressive as it gets.
The sire of these embryos is VL Rojo Mocho 92/2 (P), whom we consider one of the next top polled sires in the breed due to his proven yet diverse genetics and superior phenotype. 92/2 was a standout show bull resulting from one of our most established genetic lines, including his dam, the 2017 International Champion Cow, VL Elena 4/165, and his sire, our leading polled bull VL Rojo Mocho 5/140 (P), who also sired our entire Fall 2023 sale offering.

The dam of these embryos is VL Elena 8/130, a former show winner who earned the title of Reserve Calf Champion at the 2020 National Brahman Show. VL Elena 8/130 comes from a proven pedigree that includes the former show bull and widely used sire VL Rojo Designer 2/70, and donor dam VL Elena 102/6, who also produced our young herd sire VL Rojo Wiskey 21/2.

This is an opportunity you simply CANNOT miss!

Ranching life in Texas during the fall is a busy yet rewarding time, as the season brings cooler temperatures and changing landscapes. The heat of the summer fades, making it more pleasant to work outdoors. Fall is often a critical period for cattle operations as ranchers wean calves that were born in the spring, prepare livestock for the winter, and manage breeding programs.

At this time, ranchers are typically rounding up cattle for vaccinations, health checks, and sorting them for sales or keeping the best for the breeding herd. Weaning calves can be physically demanding but rewarding, as ranchers assess the progress of their herd’s genetics and growth over the year. The vibrant colors of fall foliage in some parts of Texas, combined with the wide-open ranchland, create picturesque settings.
