Hello All,
We are planning on having our own labor day private treaty sale this year.  Going to test the waters with our "Fab 5"  We are kind of in the sticks in southern Iowa and don't have a well known name.  I attached the pictures of what we're offering.  Do you think people will show up?  Any and all comments are welcome!

Really nice set of calves!
I make the trip from northern Indiana to Iowa at least once in the fall and would certainly consider stopping. Are you close to other breeders that also would have calves for sale?

Thanks for your comments.  We are located just south of Truro, Iowa which is 5 miles West of I-35.  We do have a few other sales that are somewhat close but most seem to be 30 minutes in any direction.  Which really isn't too bad.

Nice offering, use good pics and videos if you can.  People don't mind driving if they know that you have quality

hey Rockefeller!!  We're 180 miles north of you right along I35---3 miles east at the last exit in northern Iowa.  Casino exit.

I'll try to stop by in a few weeks when I'm down your way!!

Wow, Lynn, I was 3 miles from your place a few weeks ago and didn't fully realize it. You weren't kidding when you said youcan smell Minnesota from across the line!

with pictures like those you will see those, get those pictures out to the public and you will see more ppl than you expect, might not hurt putting a sign up along the interestate "Sweet Show Calves next exit!"
