Angus breeder Keith Russell, Johnstown, Colo., says he looks to improve his herd every day. But after the devastating flooding in Colorado, each day is a challenge. Since the massive rainfall that hit the area in 2013, Russell’s homestead has been left with mud and debris, and little to none winter feed or equipment.
In support of Russell, and to honor his commitment to the Angus breed, an online auction is now live, and offers top-quality Angus semen and embryos.
Supporters can find the auction at disasterrelief.dvauction.com. The sale ends at noon on Jan. 25. For more information about sale offerings call DV Auction at 402-316-5460.
