History

Barenthsen Bullinger Red Angus operates on a family homestead in northwestern North Dakota, tracing its roots to 1976 when Mark and Kathy Barenthsen began their commercial cattle business. The ranch has expanded through generations, now managed by Mark, Kathy, and their children Jeremy, Jessica, and their family. As sixth-generation ranchers, they maintain a deep connection to the land and heritage.

Practices

The ranch prioritizes functional, productive Red Angus genetics. Calves are raised without creep feeding or implants, relying entirely on maternal nutrition. Practices include:

• Semen sales for genetic distribution
• Private treaty bull sales
• Breeding programs focused on profitability
• Ranch management emphasizing sustainability
• Participation in sales events with detailed reporting

Offerings

The ranch offers registered Red Angus females and bulls through private treaty sales and events. Historical sale reports are available online, providing transparency for buyers. Genetics are marketed for their productivity and adaptability, appealing to both commercial and breeding operations.

Visiting and Buying

While the ranch is family-operated, specific visiting hours or tour availability are not detailed in public sources. Buyers can access past sale reports and event details through the website. Transactions appear to occur through direct contact, with emphasis on clear communication about genetics and herd management.
