MB Limousin News & Views Bull Issue 2022
Posted on February 18, 2021 by Beef Research3 Dr. Colin Palmer is the Associate Director of the University of Saskatchewan, Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He and his family also own and operate their own herd of Red Angus cattle near Dundurn, Saskatchewan. Dr. Palmer is a theriogenologist (specialist in animal reproduction) practicing in western Canada for many years, but also has strong roots in eastern Canada. “No producer wants to buy a fat bull but just try to sell him a skinny one.” The investment in a herd sire is often a large purchase for any cow-calf operation. To ensure this investment will remain in the herd, breeding bulls must be properly maintained during and between breeding seasons. Whether you are a commercial cattle producer looking to purchase a new herd sire or are a purebred operator who is developing bulls for sale, over-feeding is one of the biggest issues when it comes to young bull management, says Dr. Colin Palmer. Pushing young bulls for large daily gains can lead to issues such as joint effusion (swelling), laminitis, acidosis, inflammation of the seminal vesicles, and over conditioning or simply becoming too fat. Scrotal circumference measured during the breeding soundness evaluation. Photo credit Dr. Colin Palmer. Overly conditioning bulls can have a direct impact on their performance as a herd sire. Fat deposits in the neck of the scrotum (top photo) can harm the cooling mechanism of the testes which can impair temperature regulation (both warm and cool). Dr. Palmer says this can lead to a reduction in testosterone and potential loss of sperm production in the testes. Palmer says poor performance can also be a result of underfeeding bulls, particularly in mature bulls. “A balanced diet including salt and minerals is important for preparing mature bulls for the next breeding season. Feed testing is vital to ensure the proper nutrition is being met.” Palmer also suggests considering the use of feed additives such as Rumensin. Breeding Soundness Evaluation Dr. Palmer says any bull that is not fertile at the beginning of the breeding season, regardless of the cause, is a liability for the cow-calf producer. Dr. Palmer also notes that although a bull may fail a Breeding Soundess Evaluation (BSE), this does not necessarily mean the bull will never pass the test in the future. Stressors such as lameness, sudden temperature changes, and illness can negatively impact a bull’s ability to pass the BSE. He suggests testing bulls that failed the BSE initially to re-test a few to several week later depending upon the types of sperm defects present. Bulls that are believed to be capable of passing the BSE in the near future may be given a “decision deferred” or “questionable” classifications. Decision deferred is preferred for young bulls that are intended for a bull cont ’d to page 8

sale but just need more time to mature. Some causes of poor fertility may be genetic or due to a severe injury to the reproductive organs. Unfortunately, in many cases these occurrences may result in very long lasting or permanent poor fertility and these bulls are classified as unsatisfactory. Poor semen quality of course is only part of the picture – a satisfactory bull must also be able to mount and complete service. Dr. Palmer says producers may want to consider buying the ‘full meal deal’ when it comes to purchasing bull insurance, which includes the full fertility coverage. Bull Housing, Health and Biosecurity Dr. Palmer advocates treating bulls with the same herd health program as the cow herd. Photo credit Dr. Colin Palmer. Bull housing and effective shelter are also important. Dr. Palmer says adequate bedding is necessary to prevent frostbite on the testes which can negatively impact a BSE. He also suggests that easing bulls together into a new environment at the same time is helpful when establishing social dominance. Moving all the bulls to a new space ensures the surroundings are new to each of the bulls and you are not introducing a new guy to an already established group. Dr. Palmer advocates treating bulls with the same herd health program as the cow herd. Bulls can often be overlooked when it comes to vaccinations, but it
8
MB Limousin News & Views Bull Issue 2022
is critical that their vaccines for Clostridial diseases (Blackleg), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and other bovine respiratory viruses are up to date. Bulls persistently infected (PI) with BVDV not only can spread disease within the herd, but it can negatively impact their fertility as well. Purchasing bulls from herds with sound vaccination programs is critical. Sharing bulls with neighbouring herds or even in a community pasture system can create a biosecurity concern. Discuss with your veterinarian about herd health risks and consider taking additional precautions, including vaccinating your herd for reproductive diseases, requiring any external bulls be tested for trichomoniasis, ensuring parasite control protocols are in place, and a mitigation plan is in place for diseases such as Johne’s Disease. There are a lot of factors that go into purchasing herd bulls. Careful selection, feed and nutrition, protection from the elements, and mitigating biosecurity risks are just a few things to remember when sourcing and maintaining bulls. Proper management of herd sires is key to ensuring longevity and a producer being able to use a bull for multiple breeding seasons, maximizing the return on their initial investment of the bull purchase.

Ar t & Mari a Ro dgers and fami ly Tripl e R L imousin, MacGregor, MB With a bit of ambition and persistence, Triple R Limousin was started. We started from scratch and gradually built up a farm that features a large herd of purebred Limousin as well as commercial cattle. The events that inspired us began in Lavenham, a small community in central Manitoba. It was there that we settled after we were married. While living in Lavenham, Art worked for Hartley Woodward of Bittersweet Limousin an established purebred Limousin breeder, while Maria worked as a community postmaster and for home care. We bought a few cattle as a sideline to earn extra income. The cattle were pastured on a road allowance and an abandoned railway within town limits. Seven years into our marriage, circumstances started to nudge us away from town and onto the farm where we live now. The owner of Bittersweet Limousin retired in 1988, with no job prospects which left us with some obvious choices; go into farming or go elsewhere in search of a job. We decided to farm. We purchased a quarter section of land with a home and farm buildings in 1988. By then we had three young daughters. We had owned a few commercial cows and 25 Limousin purchased from Bittersweet Limousin. The quarter section and the Limousin cattle became the foundation of our farm’s future. Our three daughters, Karis, Rochelle and Larissa became the inspiration for the farms name, Triple R Limousin. We purchased another quarter section of land and increased our herd. We gained a reputation for quality breeding stock, but not without some challenges. We

MB Limousin News & Views Bull Issue 2022
Breeders H erd 1997 wanted more cows but were not able to raise enough from our own seed stock, so we were always buying cattle to grow our herd. Some of the new cattle didn’t always work out, which we concluded that the best cattle you can have are the ones you raise yourself because you know their history. We now have boxes filled with trophies won at cattle shows. We have dozens of banners and chairs for the times our cattle were named grand or reserve grand champions at exhibitions. Our daughter Karis got Reserve Supreme Champion 4-H and youth heifer at Canadian Western Agribition. Our family attended many purebred and junior shows, taking home many different awards. All three of our girls were active in 4-H and the MJLA/CJLA. Maria was a director with the MLA for three years. When she stepped off the board, Art became a director. Youngest daughter Larissa is on the board of directors as well. We were both leaders for the local 4-H Mix and Match. Together we coached 4-H Beef Club members in grooming and showmanship. When our daughters were involved in 4-H, Maria did many demonstrations on how to fit and groom cattle. Art had been asked to judge at some cattle shows in Manitoba, daughters Karis and Larissa helped judge as well. Art served as President for the local Agricultural Society and on the board for 20+ years. Our plan was to quit showing when we reached 20 banners, but it kind of gets in the blood after a while. The thrill of winning the award has softened with time, but showing our cattle, we gained the exposure needed to sell breeding stock.
MCM 121A We have enjoyed the friendships cultivated from attending exhibitions, including CWA and the Brandon Fall Fair, as well as numerous summer shows through the years. As a family cattle shows were one of the highlights of the year, Maria oversaw the fitting while the girls helped with grooming and showing the cattle. Some of the many shows we attended included the Calgary Stampede, London Ontario Junior Show, Olds Alberta, Edmonton, CWA, Buffalo Days, Saskatoon Junior Show, Brandon Fall Fair/Ag Ex Ag Days, Toronto Royal as well as the local summer shows in the Manitoba Summer Fair Circuit: Virden, Carman, Portage la Prairie, Selkirk, Morris, Treherne, Glenboro, Gladstone, Boissevain, Dauphin, Roblin, Rapid City, Shoal Lake, Hamiota, Harding, Oak Lake, Elkhorn, MacGregor, Killarney, Ninnette, Rivers, Cartwright and Plumas. We believe we attended most of the Provincial Limousin summer shows. While at the different shows we attended, we promoted our cattle as we support the breed and the Limousin Association. We are firm believers in supporting our Junior Associations to keep the Limousin breed alive and growing and for our future generation of Limousin breeders. We sponsor an award (Spirit of the Impact
LNA 7B Show) in memory of our Granddaughter Kylee at the Canadian National Junior show. In order to keep in contact with our customers, we talk with those who want to know more about our breeding stock. We try to keep a variety of bloodlines and types of bulls for different needs for our customers. Following up with customers is a must for us, customers are #1 at Triple R. In 1992 we bought MCM Pegasus bull from Alberta. We used the bull and had an excellent turn out of calves. Alta Genetics reached out to us to get semen drawn on Pegasus. We sold semen to USA, Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Mexico and Uraguay. We later sod the bull to South America. It was quite a big venture for us. We began collecting embryos from our Limousin herd 22 years ago. The embryos offered the genetics of our top cows crossed with one of our herd bulls or an AI sire. Demand for the genetics of our herd came from across Canada, and sold embryos into Australia. Over the years we have sold 25 to 55 bulls a year. They have sold locally in Manitoba as well as Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario and the USA. We appreciate our customers and have been fortunate enough to have repeat buyers to help support us over the years. cont ’d to page 12

In 2016-17, our first year at Douglas Bull Test Station we had the highest gaining Limousin bull. We participated in the test station for two years. We are assisted by our son-in-law Scott, his sons Dimitry and Dexter, our oldest grandson; Damian, as well as two truck drivers. There is seldom a spare moment on the farm. Fifteen years ago we added a new company on the side, selling livestock feed throughout the year. We also ran a welding shop for seven years building livestock equipment. We have hauled pipes from Saskatchewan to Manitoba and Ontario. In 2006 we buit a new shop/calving barn which doubled as a sale facility. We were able to host several bull and production sales as wellas the Manitoba Limousin Association sales for a few years. We have used AI for many years, and AI approximately 125 females per year. Over the past few years we have bought bulls out of Canada and the USA. Today we own 185 Limousin cows as well a 140 Angus and Angus/Limousin cattle. The largest rewards of being involved with the Limousin Association has been the great people we meet and the many friendships we have made along the way. The most memorable cows out of MCM Pegasus were ARM 24C and ARM 29C. As well ARM 75E who we flushed and sold the resulting embryos. Triple R Emily had many great progeny. 40 years involved in breeding Limousin cattle, have proven Limousin is a great breed plus the added value that they cross well with other
