Bulls for Sale
Take a look below to find details on the selection of Hereford Bulls currently “For Sale”. These are available through Private Treaty Sale from our Postville, Iowa location. More animals become available with each season, as we have both Spring & Fall Calving crops. Whether you are looking for Registered Herefords to build your herd, or if you want good Hereford blood for crossing in a black or other commercial herd, we have options for each! Let us know what you have and what you are “looking for” and we will see what we may have to help you best. If your priority is to find low birth weights and calving ease, we have bulls with low actual birth weights and EPD’s. If your focus is finding high growth, frame and the ability to put on pounds of meat, we also have cattle that will meet that need. While our cow herd has a history of horned bloodlines, we have been focusing on polled bloodlines the past several years and now use polled sires only. We use a combination of A.I. and herd sires that we have purchased or raised to offer a variety of strong bloodline options for new - and our many repeat customers.
Demand for good Hereford genetics continues to be strong and many people like to shop early for best selection. We offer an "early reservation” option. For a down payment, you can lock in your choice(s) early, and we will feed until needed and ready to take possession. Give us a call, or come by to look at them if you are within driving distance. Call Marilyn at 319-269-3146 with any questions, for specific pricing, or to discuss what you are looking for.

- DOB: 2/15/2018
- Homozygous Polled
- BW: 78
Sire: KT BUILT TUFF 1010
Dam: LH MS VALE 508C [DOD
Tuffer Stuff has been a key part of our Herd Bull line-up the past two years, siring vigorous, well pigmented calves with 79 lb. avg. BW from heifers and cows. We purchased three new Herd Bulls this year, all outcross bloodlines, so we don’t need Tuff and can offer him For Sale. We want to keep him until later June just in case we need him as a ‘backup’ if one of our other sires would have an injury or issue before then, but for turnout in later June or after, he is available. Homozygous polled, dark red, quiet disposition, good feet and legs, mother is a Dam of Distinction, he’s suitable for heifers OR a big group of cows, as just a 3-yr-old he has some of his best years ahead of him!

Dam: LH MS SANDY JO 279Z
This Fall bull is sired by a homozygous polled KT Built Tuff 1010 son, and a big framed, high growth Marshall T111 cow, both raised by Lenth Herefords, so he is Lenth bloodline. He has the size to cover a lot of cows for 2021 breeding. Offered by our ‘partner’ herd Harting Farms, he is located at LaPorte City, Iowa. Call Marilyn, or owner Matt Harting at 319-939-7035 for more information or to set up a time to view this nice bull.

- DOB: 2/6/2020
- Polled
- BW: 84
Sire: TH 18U 719T VICTOR 31X
Dam: LH MS SAMANTHA 845F
A number of the cows in our herd are still daughters of the Victor 719T son 31X that we purchased several years ago, and we tapped the semen tank to get this bull. Super long bodied, large framed, dark red with a lot of pigment and very little white, Sammy is sure to produce calves with a lot of frame also that will grow well and finish big. His disposition is top notch, he’s actually a big ‘pet’. His semen test showed excellent motility but low concentration – approved for limited service. Over 1,200 lbs. already, he could be a very economical choice if looking for a bull for a small herd or a few head.

Sire: LH 508C TUFFER STUFF 808F
Dam: LH MS LONI 861F
We have been very impressed with our first crop of calves out of our Built Tuff 1010 son, Tuffer Stuff 808F, and this bull is one of those calves. Deep red with very little white, two pigmented eyes, he is very attractive. Clean fronted, smooth shouldered, long bodied with good frame. Raised by a first-calver 2-year old dam, he had an impressive weaning WDA of 3.37 lb/day and Adj205 of 763 lbs. Lander is ready-to-go for use on cows and could be used on larger heifers with lower BW backgrounds.

- DOB: 3/11/2020
- Polled
- BW: 94
Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS LARAMIE 510C
This Goldrush son isn’t flashy, but he’s a solid bull that is maturing very well and is ready to pass on his good genes. Out of a reliable dam who always has a big calf on her own, he would be a good option for a commercial cow herd that wants to bring heterosis into their breeding equation. Not recommended for heifers due to his BW and background, with his high growth EPD’s he would be a good option for producing good gaining feeders and fat cattle.

Sire: KT SMALL TOWN KID 5051
Dam: BACON 4003 LADY SAPHIRE 1816ET
One of the newer, up-and-coming A.I. bulls is ‘Small Town Kid’, and this calf is an example of what he throws. Even though he’s just a mid-April, his young 2-year old dam is doing a great job with him. Dark red and short marked, he’s naturally deep in the rib and flank, and his hip is getting thicker as he develops. He has impressive EPD’s, with WW & YW in top 25% of the breed and almost every other one in top 10% of the breed.

- Polled
- BW: 76
Sire: KF CHASON MASON 226D
Dam: BH KELLY 851 ET
The youngest bull in the group is still a little ‘green’, but he’s coming along well. Royally bred, he is a grandson of the 2015 Denver Supreme Champion Chac Mason 2214. The 4R family selected his mother from the Wildcat/Kegley Sale in Wisconsin, so he’s a total outcross from any Lenth bloodlines – an option for our repeat customers to consider. Semen test was passed at just 10 months of age, he could be an economical choice for a smaller herd, and will only get better with age.

Dam: RH JEWEL R726
This moderate framed, deep bodied bull could be used with equal confidence on heifers or cows. With just a 70 lb. actual birth weight, but weaning off with a WDA of over 3 lbs. day, he should produce good-doing calves. He has a nice natural thickness and would be a great bull to cross with black heifers or cows.

Retaining in Herd - This deep bodied bull is our first calf out of a new A.I. sire we used this year, Frontier. We like all of the calves sired by him this year and have decided to keep this young sire to use in our own herd. His growth EPD’s are among the top of our crop, so he will continue a tradition of high growth. He is an example of what this year’s crop has produced, and what we will be building on for the future.

We intend to use Relentless on a select group of young cows in our herd in 2021. His Dam 705E is an impressive daughter of our Donor/DOD cow Sierra 127Y, so he’s a female builder. You can see his thickness, power, and strong traits he will pass on to all his calves.

Sire: CHURCHILL RED BULL 200Z
Dam: LH MS SERENA 717E
Our last straw of Red Bull 200Z produced this impressive bull calf. He is really well built, pigmented with one big red eye and one small, and his curve-bending EPD’s are in the top 10-25% of the breed across the board! His female side traces back to our Donor/DOD cow Sierra 127Y, so he could be a herd building bull to retain females from. Excellent CEZ and BW EPD’s suggest he could be used on heifers or cows.

Dam: LH MS SIERRA 127Y
This goggle-eyed bull is an ET calf from our Sierra 127Y x R Leader flush. He’s developing right along with the pace of flush-mates in the past, and they have been impressive. He could be used on heifers, should be ready to service cows as well in 2021. Retain his daughters with confidence, his sons should be good gaining, whether feeders or as fats.

Sire: KCF BENNETT ENCORE Z311 ET
Dam: MGM LINE OF TRUST 35A
Our 35A Lady x Encore Z311 flush was a very successful mating, and here is a limited opportunity to pick up a bull from that flush. His full brothers were two of the earliest picks last year, and we expect this one to get selected early too. Moderate BW, chart topping growth EPDs, he’s already over 700 lbs. and not even weaned yet. His full brothers last year were also top of the scales in WW & YW – he’s headed that way as well.

Dam: MGM LINE OF TRUST 35A
Another bull from the 35A Lady x Encore Z311 flush, this bull is almost an identical match to 021H, except this guy ended up with the two red goggle eyes. Equally deep and thick, big bodied with huge growth EPD’s, this is another bull you can truly base a herd on. Whether a purebred Herford operation or a commercial herd looking for a boost in growth, take a good look at this opportunity.

The first 2020 bull calf out of our OnTarget 936 son is Bullet. Another good heifer bull option, he is moderate framed, thick, stout, and very attractive. Pigment on both eyes, he was very vigorous at birth, just like every one of our OnTarget 20BB calves has been. His EPD’s look as impressive as he does, with almost every one in the top 10% or 25% of the breed. Super quiet disposition, he will be a fabulous Heifer bull option for 2021.

Dam: LH MS SUNSET 650D
One glance at this thick, big boned, stocky bull and you don’t have to guess who his ‘daddy’ is – Goldrush 608D. Shaping up like his super thick sire, he also inherited his two red goggle eyes and his quiet disposition. Sundance’s dam is yet another grand-daughter of Sierra 127Y, so again, the female background is as solid as you can get. With a 78 lb. birth weight, high CEZ and low BW EPD’s, he could be used on heifers or cows.

Dam: LH MS REAGAN 538C
High calving ease CEZ and low BW EPDs, WW, YW and Udder score EPD’s in top 25% of breed, this is a bull with stats as good as he looks.

Dam: EMT BETTY LOU 21D
One more goggle-eyed, deep red bulls in this year’s crop is Patches here. Sired by Goldrush, he’s getting thicker and deeper as he grows. His Dam is a Churchill Red Bull 200Z daughter to puts everything into her calves, and they show it. Patches is actually a twin to a heifer, but we moved his sister to a foster mom, so his natural dam raised him and did another great job. Pigment, growth, good disposition – he’s got it all going!

Dam: RH HARPER 1862
One more son out of our Tuffer Stuff 808F sire, Hamilton is already super deep sided and thick hipped for his age.

Dam: EMT VICKY 207B
One of the biggest boned, thickest, deepest Goldrush sons in this crop is Virgil here. He is shaping up so much like his daddy, we can imagine the super calves he will throw. His Dam is one of the deepest cows in the herd too, an own daughter of the famous Victor 719T.

The first grand-son our of our herd sire Goldrush 608D is this late March bull. His Dam 84F is the first Goldrush daughter to come of age and calve, and she has a beautiful udder and is maintaining her body condition on just pasture all through raising her first calf. Mel is sired by our Tuffer Stuff 808F bull, so he is a calving ease option that could be used on heifers or cows for 2021.

Sire: C&L ADVANTAGE M326 22S ET
Dam: WILDCAT GARDET 816ET (33)
If you’re a repeat customer looking for an outcross bloodline, Gus may be a good choice to consider. His Dam was picked up by the 4R Rose family at the Wildcat Production sale in Wisconsin as a bred heifer, so he is unrelated to our current bloodlines. His stats point towards moderate BW but high growth that he can offer. If disposition is high priority, Gus is as quiet as they come, he’s the bull calf that visiting kids get pictures with!

His sire, a Churchill Red Bull son, brings strong calving ease but good growth traits too. Solid Lenth bloodlines continued here. Offered by ‘partner’ herd Harting Farms, he is located at LaPorte City, Iowa. Call Marilyn, or owner Matt Harting at 319-939-7035 for more information or to see him.
Females for Sale
Lenth Herefords offers a variety of females for sale throughout the year. Below, you will find details on the Show and Replacement Heifers, Bred Heifers, and any Bred Hereford Cows currently “For Sale”. These are available through Private Treaty Sale from our Postville, Iowa location. More animals become available with each season and at various times depending on inventory levels. We offer Registered Herefords that can be used as a foundation or to build upon a registered herd, prospects for 4-H and shows that move on to be herd-building females, as well as females that could be crossed with angus or other bulls in a strong commercial based herd. Our females come from a strong female-building herd that includes a number of Dams of Distinction (DOD), the highest recognition for a Hereford cow from the American Hereford Association. Besides several active DOD’s, we have many more daughters and grand-daughters of DOD’s in the herd. We also occasionally offer females from strong cooperator herds, most of which trace back to Lenth bloodlines, in order to offer an even bigger selection.
Each year the demand for Lenth Hereford females has been very strong. Many repeat customers shop very early, even putting in ‘orders’ for females in specific bloodlines. We offer an "early reservation” option, to allow anyone to select early, if desired. We also offer a 3-tier pricing scale: 1) Priced for possession soon after weaning; 2) Priced for possession after weaning but before breeding; 3) Priced as a Bred Heifer with us holding, developing, and breeding (according to purchaser’s requests) for calving the following season, after passing a preg check. Give us a call, or come by to look at what we have to offer. Call Marilyn at 319-269-3146 with any questions, for specific pricing, or to discuss what you are looking for.

RH ALEXIS 901R
- Reg#: 44131678
- DOB: 8/25/2019
- POlled
- BW: 70
Sire: SHF ACCESS Y90 A216
Dam: LH MS HALEY 1718
This fall born heifer is A.I. sired by the low BW Access bull, and her dam is a sweet, moderate framed, beautiful uddered Cracker Jack grand-daughter that we raised. Alexis was a little smaller than our other fall heifers back in November, so we decided to hold her over for spring calving to allow her to grow a little more. She’s now one of the biggest in the group and ready to be bred for the timeframe of a new owner-to-be. Pigmented, deep bodied, she will make a really nice brood cow for someone.

- BW: 70
Sire: /S MANDATE 66589
Dam: LH MS VICTORIA 202Z
A new A.I. sire we used this past year was /S Mandate, an up-and-coming Leader son. I was looking to produce a deep-bodied, calving ease, top production female, and definitely hit the ‘bulls-eye’ with Magnolia! She is very attractive and comes from a solid, productive, good uddered cow family. She did inherit a horned gene even though both parents are polled – she will be dehorned at weaning time. Magnolia has caught the attention of many who have visited our pastures this summer.

Sire: BF MR ON ARGET REVOLUTION 20BB
Dam: BAR JZ GLORY 593Z
When talking about “deep bodied” cows, the mother of this heifer is the picture of that – in fact some folks wonder how it doesn’t hit the ground! MS April is one of the youngest heifers, but definitely NOTthe smallest. She’s also developing into a deep, thick, long bodied female – literally looking better every day. She could be a very good show heifer prospect, and will certainly make a front pasture brood cow. If not chosen early on, I may just change my mind and keep her myself!

Dam: KF LOU LOU 228F
Feature Heifer – This NEW addition to our Heifer offering was being held as a Replacement for the Rose family, until they decided their inventory is a little too high for their space, and they will offer to share her. Sired by our KT Built Tuff son 808F, she has outstanding Calving Ease, BW, and Udder quality EPD’s. Her Dam is a Churchill Sensation 028X daughter, so she has a royal pedigree. If building a foundation herd, she could be the building block you’re looking for!

Dam: LH MS BONNIE 750E
MS Bobbie is the first of an elite group of heifers from one of our volume customers that we are happy to share for him. Bobbie’s Dam was purchased from us as a bred heifer, and her sire Hotshot was purchased from us as a 2-yr old. MS Bobbie is deep, dark red with very little white. She is very feminine and will be moderate framed like each of her parents. She has super high calving ease and low birth weight EPD’s, but still has above average MM and MG numbers – a solid, versatile female to build on. Owned by Harting Farms.

Sire: JDH Z311 INSIGHT 30D ET
Dam: RH DASHA 1526
This deep, long bodied heifer was our choice from the Reynolds Sale in Missouri this year, to add to our heifer group being offered. She is sired by a son of the well-known Encore Z311, and her dam is a solid cow from the heart of the Reynolds herd. We are retaining a maternal sister in our herd from last year’s sale – we believe in this cow family. She could be shown, she is sure to make a solid replacement female and brood cow.

Sire: FRONTIER 174E
Dam: LH MS LILAC 805E
We A.I.’d some cows to Frontier 174E for the first time last year and have been very impressed with the calves born this winter/spring. MS Lavendar is one of those heifers that is deep bodied, thick, clean fronted, bold and very traditionally marked. Her Dam is a Revolution 4R grand-daughter, so her pedigree is strong. We are keeping a couple of the Frontier heifers as replacements and are very proud to share this impressive heifer.

Sire: RN YORK 5083
Dam: WILDCAT BABY CRACKERS 7038 ET
A beautiful traditionally marked, medium framed heifer is this dark red heifer, Ritzy. Her Dam is an own daughter of the well-respected AH JDH Cracker Jack 26U, and Ritzy is A.I. sired by RN York – a top notch mating for sure. Moderate BW, super high growth, and elite udder quality – all traits that have set her up to be a beautiful, high performing, reliable cow.

Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS CUPID 609D
Another heifer out of our herd bull Goldrush, MS Cambrie is a wonderful combination of depth and thickness, straight lines, attractive pigment, and a beautifully feminine look. If you’re looking for a strong female background, you will want to look at this one. Her Dam has a near perfect udder, and we have kept almost every female in the family so far – the only reason we are ready to share this gorgeous gal.

Sire: KT SMALL TOWN KID 5051
Dam: LH MS RICHMOND 507C
Last year I saw some beautiful heifers sired by Small Town Kid, and decided to try to raise some of our own. MS Savannah is just that. She’s dark with one red eye, moderate sized, and if she turns out anything like her mother (which I expect her to), she will make a wonderful cow. This is a special brood cow prospect.

- BW: 105
Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS LACY 600D
If I had a ‘cover girl’ out of the heifer group, it would probably be MS Gabriella. She is very eye catching with two red eyes, small head, clean front and a beautiful profile, she’s flat out gorgeous. Her Dam is a Cracker Jack grand-daughter who is dark red and a great mother. She’s another solid daughter out of Goldrush 608D, and we are loving what his calves look like AND how they perform. I would love to keep her, but I kept her full sister from last year, so this one can be shared with others.

- DOB: 3/26/2020
- Horned
- BW: 74
Sire: KF WAR HEAD 317E
Dam: KT SONGBIRD 128F
MS Robin is a totally different bloodline from our herd, since her mother was purchased as a bred heifer, my pick from the Wildcat Cattle Company sale in Wisconsin last fall. If you’re a repeat customer looking for an outcross, here is a great option. Robin’s mom is a moderate framed cow with a near perfect udder and freckled face. Robin is also medium framed, dark red and well pigmented. She has a very feminine build, and is really shaping up beautifully. She will make someone a wonderful herd addition!

Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS PEANUT 329A
This little gal has been a ‘crowd favorite’ since she was just a few days old! Another Goldrush daughter, she is very feminine, traditionally marked with a fair amount of white, and medium-to-dark red on the balance of her body. Her Dam is a Victor 31X daughter who is deep bodied, good uddered, and a fabulous disposition who will let anyone walk up and pet her. Praline will make a wonderful cow and produce good, solid calves.
SOLD – As Bred Heifer
LH MS INDIGO 051H

- DOB: 4/10/2020
- POlled
- BW: 77
Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS VIOLET 374A
The youngest of our heifers is a beautiful girl that is also looking better and better as she develops. She has the traditional markings with a fair amount of white, beautiful head and front, and getting deeper and thicker in her rear quarter as she grows. You can see her Dam’s bold rib and thickness. MS Indigo could be a twin sister to MS Praline (049H) – they are “2 peas in a pod” – but after all they are ½ sisters, both out of Goldrush.

Sire: LH 508C TUFFER STUFF 808F
Dam: SL MISS DOM 1820
This pretty fronted little gal is as sweet as she looks. Her dam is a medium framed, 1st calf momma that is putting everything into her baby – and it shows. Aubree is sired by our Herd Bull Tuffer Stuff 808F and we are really liking his first crop of calves, including this lovely lady. Very correct, very feminine, great feet and legs, mom has a very good udder – all traits that will set her up to be a productive and long lasting cow.

Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: ROSE MS MIRANDA 62D
If you’re looking for a female to produce high growth calves, don’t overlook this gal. Her Dam is a larger framed Cracker Jack grand-daughter, and her daddy is our super thick Goldrush 608D. I can see both of her parents coming through. She’s long bodied, getting thicker and thicker, big boned, with two red eyes. Her WW, YW, and MG EPD’s are in the top 10% of the breed, showing the super growth she brings to the pasture.

- BW: 80
Sire: LH 35A GOLDRUSH 608D
Dam: LH MS MOLLY 458B
There’s just “something” about this heifer that makes me keep thinking “I should be keeping her”. She is very eye catching, being dark red with one big red eye, and she keeps looking longer and thicker every time I see her. She has a strong, straight top, and her rib is softening and getting a little deeper as she starts to mature. Her backside is thick, but she’s still very clean up front with a pretty head. If someone else doesn’t snatch her up early on, she just may shift to my “Keep” list.

Dam: LH MS BREANNA 714E
This big, powerful heifer is even more impressive in person than she looks like in her picture. Long bodied, thick, big boned, she is the type that could produce big gaining feeders and market cattle. Her dam was purchased as a bred heifer from us, and she has done a wonderful job with this heifer. She is another solid cow prospect with strong calving ease and BW EPD’s. Owned by Harting Farms.

Dam: LH MS 202 THELMA 520C
The last heifer in the offering is just as good as any. She comes from a super-strong female line in the Lenth herd including grand-dam 202Z, her sister 316A [DOD] and great-grand-dam 042X [DOD] – all foundation females still in the herd. She has some of the best udder quality and growth EPD numbers in the offering. Super sweet and feminine, red-to-the-toe with two small red eyes – she could be the ‘sleeper’ of the entire group. Take a close look! Owned by Harting Farms.
