Back home on the ranch , Curt and Leanne continue their passion of raising high-quality Limousin genetics . Curt spent seven years serving on the North American Limousin Foundation board as a director , including a stint as president . Looking ahead , he ’ s excited
about the future for both Wieczorek Limousin and the breed itself .
“ Our Wulfs Eisenhower 3616E and CJSL Data Bank 6124D calves have been really impressive ,” said Wieczorek . “ We are just getting calves out of WZRK Game Changer 4015G that we raised a few years ago , and I ’ m excited to see how they turn out .”
He added , “ Our attitude about Limousin hasn ’ t changed since our first Limousin calves hit the ground in the 1970s . Those first calves were all it took . They were born easy , were up sucking before you could blink and grew like gangbusters . Since those early days , breeders have done a commendable job of improving depth and capacity , scrotal circumference and temperament while maintaining the muscle these cattle have always been known for . As testament to the job breeders have done in addressing the docility problem , we now rank number one as a breed in the IGS evaluation .”
Wieczorek Limousin is currently participating in a feed intake study with C-Locke Inc . using the SmartFeed system . Data collected on bulls after weaning this fall will be provided in the 2022 sale catalog .
