With a veterinarian as her father, Tessa began breeding some of her family's commercial cows to club calf AI sires as she neared the end of her 4-H career. In 2012 she sold her first 4-H steers and since then her and Colin have worked to improve and expand their prospect steer and heifer program. We AI a portion of our commercial cowherd to club calf sires and breed others to our proven show steer and heifer making walking sires. We also run a large herd of purebred Limousin cattle under the name Hillview Farms Limousin with Colin's parents. We are committed to raising top quality steers and heifers that take youth to the front of the class in the 4-H and jackpot show ring. In order to serve our broad customer base with a variety of finish dates, we generally have a selection of calves to suit everyone's preferences!

We are so proud of the youth who have shown Crossing Creek Cattle genetics - we are here for you every step of the way! Your success is our greatest reward.

We are thrilled to offer two outstanding Italian Stallion heifers in the sale this year.

Ample shape and body with beautiful, feminine front ends and tidy skull design. Both have fantastic hair and are going to be competitive females to hang a show halter on and make good mama cows.

LOT 2 - Heifer

Italian Stallion X Angus/Simmental

DOB: March 12, 2021
Sire: Italian Stallion
Dam: Angus X Simmental
Sept. 22 Weight: 584 lb.

SOLD for $1,600 to Youngstown, AB

LOT 3 - Steer

Angus X Simmental

DOB: January 24, 2021
Sire: Angus
Dam: Simmental X
Sept. 22 Weight: 728 lb.

We have such a fantastic customer base that extends from northern to southern Alberta into BC and Saskatchewan and with that there are a wide variety of 4-H achievement dates and jackpot shows that each junior has as their goalpost. We saw the need for earlier born steers that are going to feed out well and finish for those earlier achievement days and have been handled to ensure a safe and fun experience for 4-H kids. We have put together a group of 7 largely Simmental influence steers that have been worked with and tie broke and are going to pound down the scales come show day.

The first of the group is a pen favourite. He was puppy dog quiet before we ever even laid a hand on him and has a real easy feeding steer look. Loads of body and good muscle, Lot 3 will make an ideal 4-H steer for any member. Despite ear warmers, thanks to last winter's cold snaps a few calves have a little off the tips of their hearing devices. This guy is one of them. Frosted ears or not this guy has the goods to make a real competitive 4-H project.

SOLD for $1,600 to Youngstown, AB

LOT 4 - Steer

Simmental X

DOB: January 26, 2021
Sire: Simmental
Dam: Simmental X
Sept. 22 Weight: 752 lb.

The biggest boy in the sale offering this year, this blaze face steer is long sided and muscular with extension through his front end and a showy profile. The cold at the end of January didn't play favourites - so Lot 4 got a touch of frost on his left ear as well. There is so much good to this steer, when he is fed out we are confident he will be a real contender in the 4-H ring.

SOLD for $1,500 to Riviere Qui Barre, AB

LOT 5 - Steer

Simmental X

DOB: February 11, 2021
Sire: Simmental
Dam: Simmental X
Sept. 22 Weight: 718 lb.

Lot 5 is an eye catching larger framed steer with a little dash of chrome on his back legs to set him apart from the rest. On the profile he is long spined and extended - this steer is going to put on the pounds and look the part with a show halter on him.

SOLD for $1,700 to Myrnam, AB

LOT 6 - Steer

Simmental X

DOB: February 12, 2021
Sire: Simmental
Dam: Simmental X
Sept. 22 Weight: 690 lb.

Lot 6 is a real meat wagon with a double muscle type hip and big top. He is a tick more moderate in his frame and is really going to put the pounds onto his already very well muscled build. If you like a steer that carries explosive natural muscle shape while maintaining a sound structure Lot 6 is a steer you don't want to overlook.

SOLD for $1,600 to Riviere Qui Barre, AB

Simmental X

DOB: February 21, 2021
Sire: Simmental
Dam: Simmental X
Sept. 22 Weight: 658 lb.

Flashy and chromed up Lot 7 has caught our attention from day one! Loose hided and soggy, he is built to be an easy fleshing and good moving steer. The hairiest of the Simmental X calves in the sale and extra quiet, he will make a really fun 4-H project!

SOLD for $1,500 to Riviere Qui Barre, AB

SOLD

LOT 14 - Steer

Monopoly Son X Angus/Simmental

DOB: March 29, 2021

SOLD for $3,000 to Cherhill, AB

LOT 15 - Steer

Italian Stallion X Angus/Limousin

DOB: March 31, 2021
Sire: Italian Stallion
Dam: Angus X Limousin
Sept. 22 Weight: 632 lb.

We are extremely excited about this steer. The picture does not do justice to just how explosively square hipped and huge topped this cool guy is! He is jack necked, super hairy and walks out like he knows he is impressive. The dam of Lot 15 is an Angus X Limousin female that makes her calves like a block of butter every year. Super thick and stout and feed out great. Maternal brother sold to Vanderhoof, BC in last year's sale and went on to be the Grand Champion 4-H steer in the Mapes 4-H Club. Come see him in person, this steer is the complete package. We would recommend he go to an older or more seasoned junior as he was one that just had a little extra pep before we started handling the calves but he has taken to tie breaking very well and has given us no issues at all.

SOLD for $1,500 to Myrnam, AB

LOT 16 - Steer

Monopoly Son X Simmental/Limousin

DOB: April 15, 2021
Sire: Sarge (original Monopoly X Angus)
Dam: Simmental X Limousin
Sept. 22 Weight: 514 lb.

Lot 16 is a deep bodied, soft made and easy fleshing type of steer. He has a square top, good hip and plenty of hair that will make him a fancy show prospect for anyone with a bit later achievement day. His dam is a great Simmental X Limousin cow that has extra thick calves year after year.

SOLD

LOT 17 - Steer

Monopoly Son X Angus/Hereford

DOB: April 16, 2021
Sire: Sarge (original Monopoly X Angus)
Dam: Angus X Hereford
Sept. 22 Weight: 516 lb.

We really like how this younger calf is put together. He is out of our coming 19 year old herd matriarch that has never missed - she knocks it out the park every year! Tons of hair, smooth and stylish, with a good hip, bold rib shape and tidy front end - he is going to be a competitive steer for those later shows. Please note he does have a rip in his left ear - but you can give him a cool name like Rip!

SOLD

LOT 18 - Steer

Monopoly Son X Shorthorn

DOB: April 19, 2021
Sire: Sarge (original Monopoly X Angus)
Dam: Shorthorn X
Sept. 22 Weight: 640 lb.

Never have we had a steer this colour - but boy is he cool! His dam is a blue roan out of my Denali roan cow that I showed as a junior. He is one extended, fancy fronted dude that tracks out well and has all the makings of a show steer in the most unique colour package out there. He has a fantastic disposition as well. Take a look at his weight for his age, he's bigger than the picture depicts - come see him in person.

SOLD

LOT 19 - Steer

Monopoly Son X Shorthorn/Limousin

DOB: April 22, 2021
Sire: Sarge (original Monopoly X Angus)
Dam: Shorthorn X Limousin
Sept. 22 Weight: 566 lb.

Lot 19 is a younger steer that doesn't give up anything in terms of muscle shape and body. We have continually said that this calf impresses us for his age and we are confident he will make an excellent feeding steer. That little shot of Limousin in the pedigree really puts the hip on our calves and bred to Sarge they come out hairy, clean fronted, and with a great disposition without fail.
