The best of our horned and polled breeding program is represented in our latest sale offering. A group of animals that reflects our commitment to producing practical, uniform cattle that work in today's commercial cattle industry.

Our program is geared to creating value for our customers. We measure and select for all traits that have a positive effect on your bottom line! This focus on profitability means that we pay attention to the fundamentals and that our customers can buy with confidence.

We run our cowherd in a manner that eliminates the need for extra labour and utilizes the forage and winter grazing opportunities we have available to us here in the foothills of Alberta. Our cows calve on pasture in April and May and we continue to select for even greater fertility. Over 75 percent of our cows calve in the first cycle.

Since 2012 we have tested our bulls for gain and feed intake, allowing us to assess feed conversion and feed efficiency (measure of amount of feed for simple maintenance). These numbers have been included in the performance data for each bull We are very pleased that JBC 48C is the highest RFI ranked bull of amongst over 1200 Hereford bulls tested over four years.

You are welcome to tour our program anytime and feel free to give us a call if you have any questions.

We measure

and select ALL the profit traits

The Canadian Hereford Association recognizes breeders that maintain complete and accurate reporting of performance data. 5 Star breeders report calving ease, birth weight, weaning weight and at least two additional traits.

We measure 9 traits: Birth Weight Cow Weight Rib Eye Weaning Weight Scrotal Circumference Marbling Yearling Weight Back Fat Residual Feed Intake

Balanced Trait Selection

Big growthy calves are great but selection for that alone will produce bigger cows that eat more than smaller ones. Balanced trait selection matters!

Our Guarantee 1) We will work with you to find cattle that meet your needs and provide the information that you need 2) Your bulls have been semen tested and are structurally sound 3) We will provide you with birth weights, weaning weights, yearling weights, carcass ultrasound information, EPDs, as well as history on close relatives. You are entitled to know the full story 4) If your bull does not perform, we will work with you to find a replacement that gets your cows pregnant.

How to read the numbers…

The raw numbers – We know from discussions with customers that some like the actual performance data, and others EPDs, and so we provide both. We give you an actual birth weight (BW), weaning and yearling weights adjusted to 205 and 365 days of age, respectively so that you can compare different aged bulls. Weight per day of age (WDA) is also shown for these two weights. Post weaning gain was assessed to yearling weight along with feed intake, and feed conversion (FCR) and feed efficiency (RFI) were calculated.

Ultrasound was used to assess carcass rib eye area and marbling (% intramuscular fat).

RFI (Residual Feed Intake) is a measure of feed efficiency but is adjusted to account for differences in body weight, body fat composition and rate of gain. It therefore reflects the amount of feed that an animal requires to maintain itself independent of growing. The average for a group of tested animals is set at zero, and negative numbers mean that an animal is more efficient. An RFI of -2 means that animal ate 2 lbs less of dry matter per day compared to average. Over the course of a year, that would mean 730 lbs less! RFI is highly heritable at 40%, comparable to that for WW. Selection for it will rapidly reduce maintenance costs.

Expected Progeny Difference (EPD) is a measure of the trait value of an animal, calculated as the difference in expected performance of progeny from that animal, compared to others of average genetic merit. EPDs are estimated not just from the phenotype of the animal but also it’s relatives and progeny, and also depends on the heritability of the trait.

EPDs are reported in units of measure for the trait (e.g., lbs, cm, %). Accuracy of EPDs is the correlation between an animal’s EPD and its actual breeding value. Accuracies are normally low unless traits have been measured and until the animal has reported progeny.

Four the last four year, we have added genomics testing on the sale bulls which gives us a picture of the actual gene variants inherited from the parents, giving us an immediate increase in EPD accuracy equivalent to a crop of calves. The accuracies for sale cattle can be found at www.hereford.ca, or give us a call.

The Canadian Hereford Association publishes 17 EPDs (www.hereford.ca) but we have listed the ones in the catalogue that we think are most relevant to our customers: CE - calving ease, BW – birth weight, WW - weaning weight, YW - yearling weight, M – contribution of milk production to calf growth, TM – “total maternal” combines maternal contribution to WW through both milk production and genetic growth potential, STAY - stayability, REA - ribeye area, MAR – marbling. MPI – (maternal productivity index) is an index that gives economic weighting to CE, WW, M, mature cow weight, and Stay.

Buying a Bull? Think in Profit terms Step one is knowing what your herd needs to improve the balance in the traits. To assess the financial impact of using a bull, multiply the expected trait by the economic value of that trait. The difference between a bull’s EPD and that of the breed average allows comparisons between bulls. An EPD is a more accurate way of estimating the genetic merit of a bull, rather than looking at just its individual measures, because an EPD takes into account the heritability as well as the phenotypes of all relatives.
