Welcome to the MNP site. The cattle are the results of 23 years of breeding Belgian Blue Cattle. We are pleased you chose to browse. The Blues have been a nice twist to my cattle production. A crossbreeding program is where the Blues shine in the scope of the cattle market, along with the healthy assets of the beef. We all are aware that lean beef and purchasing local are the healthiest choice for our families and knowing the origin of our food. Most recipes are calling for lean beef so the Blues will fill the ticket. We started in the Blues due to being raised in an athletic family and being conscious of healthy food choices. These are truly cattle for the 21st Century. Plus - we are all looking for ways to increase our "production pounds of meat" to our herd. As breeders, we are interested in producing meat not just producing the outer cover -- we are in the lean meat business for your family. If we can add some Blue in your crossbreeding program please consider what a Blue can do. We strive to bring you quality not quantity along with functional hybrid animals. We have worked on genetics to produce animals with vigor and functionality. Over the years, we have been very impressed with the crossing ability of the Blues with other breeds and we hope you will be too! Watch the calves grow and compare!

Take a look and if you have any questions, ideas or comments please send an email or call, even better yet come by. Please come visit and view the cattle! Might be good to call ahead -- but please come see for yourself!

We are also pleased to introduce our latest project – Brooks' Performance Quarter Horses. We are pleased to have pictures of Lena's Playing Jazcat. We hope to produce cow-working colts in the next few years. Please watch and grow with us.

Thank you for taking your time to visit our site. We appreciate your interest in the cattle and the horses. We always look forward to new calves, meeting new Blue friends, new colts and meeting new horse friends. Again, we would like to "Thank" those who have purchased our cattle from coast to coast and those who might just like to look. If nothing else, our hopes are the site will help educate you on Belgian Blue cattle and how the Blues can benefit your family with healthy lean beef as well as be an asset to the commercial industry. Our hope is too that you will enjoy the horses in the future. All are welcome to call, email, or come by!

The Very Best Wishes for you, your family, and of course your cattle and horses in 2013!!!

Kind Regards, Connie and Richard
