Happy Spring!
The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. Song of Solomon 2:12
As I write this, we are thanking God for a beautiful gentle warm rain that started last night. Our spring has been so dry that cattle walked over the fence on a dirt drift last week. The good thing about dry is it has made for a successful calving season. Branding is scheduled for Saturday, May 25th. We even have a vacation package for one family/group to come be part of the branding weekend! If you have always wanted to go to a real cattle branding and even wrestle calves, this is your chance….Ranch Branding Weekend! – Mahlstedt Ranch Inc.
Spring arrived and things are popping!
With a mild winter, birds and deer and antelope came through strong and healthy. Look at this beautiful turkey harvested last week. Hunting on Mahlstedt Ranch – Mahlstedt Ranch Inc.
We are excited to report that we have finally made progress on our website regarding vacation offerings and MRI merchandise that is made locally. Yes, we are still tweaking things, but you can get a good idea of what we have. Shop for Mahlstedt Ranch Merchandise – Mahlstedt Ranch Inc.
We are foaling! It’s the most wonderful time of the year! We started earlier than ever and all has gone well. Our last set of MRI Snip’s Spirit foals is all on the ground and they are truly amazing. This is also our last set from Sugar Irish Oak and I love the ones we have so far. I’m trying to keep the website current with the new foals, but I am behind already. We will again do the Pasture Pick Pricing birth to August 1st. Details are on the website. Then foals will be individually priced over halter breaking weekend. Our Open House will be Sunday, September 1st. Mark the date and be sure to plan on joining us! Lots of blue roans already! 2024 Foals For Sale (mahlstedtranch.com)
