Semen Sales

Circle A Ranch not only works tirelessly to identify profitable genetics in our own system, but to incorporate profitable genetics from other leading Wangus breeders as well. These bulls represent the great potential of the Wangus breed and their semen is offered to you to help improve the profitability of your own herd. We are selling our registered Angus semen for $5 a straw and registration certificates are $15 per straw. All semen is stored at ShowMe Genetics in Strafford, MO and will be released to buyer’s name after payment is received. The buyer is responsible for the payment of shipping of all semen purchased. We also have semen from some of our top quarter-blood and half-blood Wangus bulls for sale. For purchasing, please call our ranch office at 573-793-2830.
