M.F. Ranch Online Sale
Location
Dear Brahman Enthusiasts:
I want to thank you for your interest in this offering. It is an honor to be able to work with The Frias Family of MF Ranch on this elite sale. MF Ranch is known throughout the breed as one of the premier operations. A few of the highlights of their program are breeding the 2023 Kick Off Classic Grand Champion Red Female, selling the $37,000 Brahmans at the Camellia Sale feature in 2022, exporting several influential animals to Thailand & Mexico, and producing a number of show winners and top sellers. One of the special things about MF Ranch is they sell their ENTIRE calf crop allowing you to purchase the best! We have been fortunate to work with Manuel Frias and guided this program over the past 4 years and are extremely excited about this offering. I encourage you to study this offering and take advantage of these crafted matings as they truly combine some of the most proven genetics in the breed!
As the sale day approaches, we hope that you will study the information on the sale site. If you have any questions or need additional information, please give me a call and I will be glad to assist you.
Appreciatively,
Chris Shivers
Sale Manager
