"I hadn’t been to Bar T Bar for years. I was shocked to see so many cows in such good conditions despite the year. These cows walk the walk and talk the talk. They have great udders, are the right size, and produce really good calves. We are excited to be working with Bar T Bar to build the best cattle possible for the southern US and Mexico. You should come see for yourself…"

Real Ranchers – Real Tough Country – Real Results!
Bar T Bar bulls work in some of the toughest conditions in North America. They specialize in soundness and fertility – with added heterosis,
optimal growth, and strong carcass merit.
Don’t take our word for it, here is what our customers have to say:
“We have been using Bar T Bar Balancer bulls for 15 years. The yearlings hold up just like Bob said they would. In 2020, we had good, early grass before the drought set in. Amazingly, our 3’s and 4’s came in 98% pregnant in our 90-day breeding season. We feed the calves out through Country Natural Beef and 90% of our last set hit the program requirements.”

“In Sonora, our cattle have to have heat tolerance to survive 110° F temperatures with long, dry seasons and 85% humidity in the monsoons. Straight Bos Taurus bulls can’t last the whole breeding season. Most American breeds have less libido than we want. For that reason, we have been using Bar T Bar Southern Balancers. Their ¼ blood of heat tolerant breeds works for us.”

Breeding efficient seedstock with the latest technology. . . .
Bar T Bar was one of the first operations to install a GrowSafe system and start measuring feed intake. Whether you are worried about feed costs, stocking rate, or reduction of your herd’s carbon footprint – the solution is to select for cattle that EFFICIENTLY utilize FEED to produce MORE pounds. Plus every bull is scanned for carcass traits AND tested genomically!They specialize in soundness and fertility – with added heterosis, optimal growth, and strong carcass merit.
Most bull breeders just select for more and more yearling EPD – those bulls will lead to higher and higher feed costs for your herd!
Feed consumption is the #1 driver of cost on your ranch.
