Genetics

At Peters Beef Genetics, we’re focused on breeding our heifers with high-quality sires that contribute to a smooth calving process and good growing offspring. We’ve used Angus and Red Angus CE bulls from ABS for many years, including Chinook and Fusion.

This year, we used the sires below:

Special Focus (Angus)

  • 4-star calving ease
  • Easy-fleshing daughters with good udders
  • Doesn’t sacrifice carcass merit with enhanced ribeye area and beef value
  • Solid growth calves with moderate mature size

Finished Product (Red Angus)

  • 4-star calving ease
  • Builds feminine, maternal daughters with excellent disposition
  • Top 15% Herd Builder Index
  • Great-granddam, Amy B121, comes from the same cow family as female-maker Fusion’s pedigree

Heifers are pasture exposed to Peters Beef Genetics low birthweight Angus bulls (sons of Chinook and Hickok).
