Welcome to our third winter edition of the ‘Determine Your Destiny Bred Female Sale’! We again, pride ourselves on this group of individuals selected for this event! They are made up of a diverse group of females that have either been shown successfully, descended from our influential sow herd, or purchased from other firms. The representation amongst this offering mimics the same quality group that will run through our farrowing house this winter. These are females that we have mated as if we would be farrowing them here. Again, it is a set that should continue the good fortune that our bred female offerings are known for, in producing satisfying results for our customers to experience in their own herds. Over the last couple of years, we have worked tirelessly to establish a brand that can help emphasize the importance of the bred female sale and just how strong of the offerings that we make available are! With that, the ABF Determine Your Destiny Bred Female Sale was created. The format of the sale is still the same with showpig.com hosting the online event. The quality of livestock represented is the kind we are known for. We dug deep into the well again to offer females with banner hanging abilities and genetic powerhouse influence that have garnered us a large portion of our major wins in recent years. Females both new and established, within a multitude of breeds, will make up this offering! To say we are excited about the group we have put together for you, would be a severe understatement! The depth and quality of these females are ones that we feel can suit the most critical evaluators. They carry the lineage and phenotype to establish foundational pieces for potential buyers or help boost the arsenal of proven firms already in place. The herd building opportunities this event makes available are that kind that have helped build the ABF herd mark. We are excited to share with you the 3rd Winter Edition of the ABF Determine Your Destiny Bred Female Sale and hope you can see the pride we hang on the group within this sale!

DUROCS
LOT 1 A Detail For Destiny 73-9 fits the mold of the kind of Duroc females that have kept us in the business over the years! A balanced built, no holes kind that is simply timeless. Her pedigree combines 2 of the greats and spins some Duroc legends deep into it. By mating her to First Impression, we feel this will only sweeten the pot. We used this sire extensively after seeing him as a baby this spring and again at PBG this summer. We feel he brings exactly what 73-9 needed and we can’t wait to see the result. Lots of ROI potential with her!

Her litters always read with incredible quality and 73-9 is no different. She looks like one that can stick around for years to come. We like this female a bunch and feel the new owner will too!!!

LOT 2 A Detail For Destiny 18-5 was the blueprint for what we expected of her mating. A boxy built one that was blessed with mass and dimension while being exceptional in her build. The mating decision here was an easy one, as we elected to use Branded as the service sire. He is the $70,000 WTC Champion we purchased at Perry this winter bred by Hi Point. His added size and elevation should pair exceptionally well with the bulk and mass on 18-5. Loads of potential in this mating!!!

18-5 is an incredibly good kind of Duroc female that packs a serious punch from a pedigree perspective! Sired by the legendary Bury My Bones and out of a 76 sired female, combines 2 of the more dominate sires to stand at Crossroads. These 2 sires have proven to be big time female makers and the combination of them in the pedigree of 18-5 should make her a no miss kind of female.

The further sweeten the pot, the grandmother of 18-5 is a littermate to Red Mamba. Definitely power in the blood for 18-5!!! 22-8 - DAM OF 18-5

The mother of 37-5 was also the Reserve Champion Duroc Gilt at the 2016 NJSA Southeast Regional to boot. Stand Tall & Shiftin’ Gears were factories for producing high quality, generating females and the opportunity to acquire one that combines both is rare. Take advantage!!!

22-8 is a Duroc female that comes from one of our favorite litters in recent years! Sired by the dominate 76 and out of a Last Drop female. The Hendrickson family would have driven a littermate brother to 22-8 to Champion Duroc Barrow honors at the American Royal in 2021. Last Drop was one of the more influential sires that we ever used and are proud to say we raised him as well. The Last Drop 32-5 female that is 22-8’s mother would have been a littermate to Red Mamba, so again brings testament that this is the good stuff from the ABF brand. Finally, 22-8 is the mother of 18-5 that is also in this sale! Awesome opportunity in 22-8!!!

They have been those once in a lifetime type sows that we have rigorously built off of. We rarely offered daughters out of them and when we did, they were very well received. Here is another one of those opportunities to grab a direct daughter. The mother of 8-7 is 17-8 and she is responsible for the following: 6th Overall Barrow & Champion Yorkshire 2022 Wisconsin State Fair, Reserve Overall Barrow & Reserve Champion Yorkshire 2020 NJSA Southeast Regional and is the grand dam of the Grand Overall Barrow & Champion Yorkshire 2023 NJSA Eastern Regional. 17-8 would also be the Grand Dam of 22-6 within this current sale! The addition of Hit Stick the MATERNAL SIB - 6TH OVERALL GRAND SON OF 17-8 - GRAND MATERNAL SIB TO 8-7 - RESERVE equation on 17-8 only solidifies how good we MARKET HOG 2020 WI BARROW 2023 NJSA EASTERN BARROW 2020 NJSA SE REG. REGIONAL think 8-7 is. Take a strong look at this one!!!

LOT 17 A Detail For Destiny 10-6 is for sure a sale favorite within this group as mentioned below! Her ability to mass produce quality offspring with each litter is what will make it tough to see her go. As always, we mate each and every one of these as if we would farrow them too and 10-6 is no exception. We put Big Paw in her with the mindset of keeping replacement females. Daughters of him have been the lifeblood of the ABF brand for several years and we continue to implement him with every season. This will be a huge ROI for the new owner if they were just to keep every female. Take advantage!!!

10-6 is one that is absolutely loaded with quality and the pieces it takes to highlight this sale! We are always on the hunt for the right piece to add to our herd and we had one hit us extremely hard in Louisville at the NJSS in 2021! She was shown by Micah Malcolm and is sired by Knockout. She was the 3rd Overall Gilt & Champion Yorkshire in the junior show. When we found out they had planned to sell her on Saturday, we were fired up and pumped to add her in. She has done an incredible job for us, yielding a handful of daughters so we decided to share her with you. Doing a solid job each and every time, her most recent accomplishment was making the 4th Overall Gilt & Champion Yorkshire at the 2022 Georgia National. We are excited to see where 10-6 AS A SHOW GILT - 3RD DAUGHTER - 4TH OVERALL this one will land and what she can do for her OVERALL GILT 2021 NJSS BREEDING GILT 2022 GA NATIONAL new owner!

LOT 18 A Detail For Destiny 22-6 is again a cornerstone type of female that we are proud to offer! Like many of these, she has to phenotype and genetics to continue on in strong fashion for the new owner. Her combination of balance and design is the perfect compliment for Tycoon. He is the exciting purchase we made this summer from Peters Showpigs in Iowa and has been one of the more popular boars to date that we have ever owned in terms of the Yorkshire breed. A power packed pedigree backed by a solid female and mated to a high demand boar should write the equation for a highly marketable product in the offspring of 22-6!!!
ABF Y22-6
[DYNAMITE X FREAK OF THE WEEK] SERVICE SIRE: TYCOON | DUE DATE: 1/3/24
22-6 is another outstanding example of an ABF bred Yorkshire female! Again, sired by Dynamite, that sire did as good of a job of making replacement females as any we have ever used. Their unique combination of presence and build is what made them so desirable to keep. This one had a very nice show career being named the 3rd Overall Division 2 Yorkshire Gilt at the 2021 Exposition. She has also proven that she can generate show ring worth stock, as her first litter yielded the 3rd Overall Division 1 Yorkshire Gilt at the 2022 Indiana State Fair Jr Show. The Freak of the Week sow has always been a timeless generator and offered a little different splash of blood for us. She was also a littermate to the Reserve Overall Barrow & Reserve Yorkshire at the 2020 NJSA Southeast Regional for the Sinclair 22-6 AS A SHOW GILT - 3RD OVERALL D1 DAUGHTER - 3RD OVERALL D1 YORK Family. Good stuff here from ABF!!! AT THE 2021 EXPOSITION GILT 2022 INDIANA STATE FAIR

LOT 19 A Detail For Destiny 248-11 is an exciting one the dive into her pedigree! She combines several elite Yorkshire firms in one shot. A phenotype that reads trendy in her look, comfortable in her build and proportional in her skeleton. Making this mating decision didn’t require too much thought, as again we wanted to combine Footprint with her. He is making pigs that are dense and shapely while still being good built and good looking. Adding in the Newsflash sow that he is out of only sweetens the pot for Yorkshire dominance. Prime opportunity for an easily marketable litter of Yorkshires here!!!

Her paternal dam is the $50,000 Roots sired female that was Grand Overall Breeds at the 2021 Exposition for the Logue Family. Her mother is a Roots female making it linebred for predictability. Another female that reads as if she can be productive for several litters to come. Lots of fun stuff to attract you to 248-11!!!
