Coming Fall 2024!
Offering 25 home-bred and raised Angus and Angus/Hereford cross commercial heifers due to calve March 2025. For sale by private treaty and consignment in the local bred heifer sales. Call 859-707-7004 for more information.
All heifers offered come with complete genomics profiles provided by Neogen’s Igenity Profile. The Igenity Profile compares and ranks our heifers against those in the Neogen database. The Neogen database contains genetic data from more than 1 million animals from top U.S. producers. Neogen’s Igenity compares our heifers to “the best of the best!” We also shared our data with Top Dollar Angus to evaluate our heifers within their program.
Every cow calf operator can tell a story about a heifer that just did not work out. You bought a heifer with little or no information about what you were getting, and unfortunately, a year or two later she had to go down the road, with a little extra of your money. Looks alone can be deceiving!
Based on the scores given to the Maternal and Production Traits, our heifers are ranked within all the herds in the Neogen database.
Using a tissue sample from each heifer, Igenity analyzes 7 maternal traits and 10 production traits that are grouped, averaged, and compared to Neogen’s data base with more than 1 million entries. Based on the average score, Neogen ranks our heifers as Elite, Premier, or Choice. That sample data is also analyzed by Top Dollar Angus, the beef industry’s leading genetic verification and marketing assistance company for commercial feeder cattle.
Anyone building or maintaining a cow/calf herd should want to improve the Maternal Traits of their cows. It costs just as much (or probably more) to keep a poor cow as it does to keep a quality cow.
Noche Linda Farms is one of the first commercial operations to embrace the insights of genetic decision indexes for improving herd quality. Partnering with Neogen, we apply the same technology that purebred producers have been using for decades.
By retaining heifers with the highest rankings withing the Igenity Maternal, Production, and Carcass Decision Indexes, we have, over time, developed a herd that produces calf crops that are reliably at the top of the Neogen Database, year after year.
When you see something that pleases your eye, you can buy with confidence that a Noche Linda Farms heifer will improve your herd.
We have 25 heifers, confirmed bred, due to calve in March 2025. This includes 10 BWF (black baldies), 9 solid black unregistered Angus, and 6 RWF (red with white face, “red-necks”). The average weight of these heifers is 1,100 lbs. as of September 17, 2024.
We provide lifetime vaccination records, including brucellosis. Heifers are hand-fed daily from weaning until breeding to insure they are comfortable around people.
These heifers were born between January 24, 2023 and March 8, 2023.”

Prior to consignment to any local heifer sales, these heifers are inspected by a KDA representative. This inspection may disqualify any heifer with eye scars, rat tails, wild or bad tempers, and general suitability.
All heifers offered are guaranteed bred to high quality Angus bulls. In choosing a sire for a heifer, we strive to find registered bulls that are in the top 20% of the breed in calving ease, weaning weight, yearling weight, foot soundness, as well as carcass quality. Coupled with our large percentage of Neogen Elite and Premiere heifers, buyers can feel confident that adding our heifers will improve their herd.
At Noche Linda Farms, docility and temperament are a primary focus of our herd development.
Quiet and easy handling cattle require less labor to manage, gain weight more efficiently, and reduce complications and costs!
