Gemstone Cattle Hereford & Angus Bull and Female Sale 1st Annual

I

t is a pleasure to welcome you to our 1st Annual Fall Bull and Female Sale. We would like to thank everyone that supported our spring bull as well as our heifer sales over the years. With the purchase of the Top Grade Red Angus herd in the fall of 2014 we have decided to put together a fall sale selling Polled and Horned Hereford bulls, Red Angus Bulls as well as bred females from our commercial cow herd. Our Family has been raising registered Hereford cattle for the last 40 years. We sold in the Bulls Eye Select Sale for 25 years until 2004 when we started selling bulls by private treaty. Our focus has always been to raise moderate framed cattle with high fertility, good feet and sound udders; functional traits that keep our cow herd strong.

The Bulls will be out grazing as long as the weather permits. These bulls will sell in their working cloths. Since this is a fall sale we are offering to bring the bulls back to our place after the sale and we will winter them for you on a roughage diet at no cost to you. Your bulls will be delivered in March and April, semen tested and given both shots of Fusiguard. We stand behind our cattle 100% and there is not a bull in the sale that we would not use on our own cows.

The Heifers we have on offer are the top cut of our bred heifers. These heifers will come to town in their working cloths and will NOT be fed up to add extra weight. As always the Heifers will graze until sale time, weather permitting. The heifers are bred to Red and Black Angus bulls. The bulls were turned out July 14 and were out for 40 days.

We invite you to join us before the sale for a beef on a bun lunch. We welcome you to come look at the cattle before the sale or check out our website for more information on our breeding program.

electing for moderate, efficient, easy keeping cattle is what we have done for many years.

The development of gene testing for some important economic traits have added some tools available to compare and indicate which animals will be more efficient. The genomic research we have been involved in suggests our program is working.

The presence of Leptin results in cattle that maintain body condition more easily and cows that last longer and wean heavier calves. We tested our cows for Leptin and found that 87% of the herd was TT for Leptin when the average within the Hereford breed was 32% TT for Leptin.

More recently we have participated in the Canadian Hereford Association Residual Feed Intake (RFI) project measuring Net Feed Efficiency. RFI EPDs have been generated on over 900 Hereford bulls to date. Preliminary results indicate that we may be on the right track. 26 of our bulls have had RFI EPDs generated in this project with 23 bulls (88%) ranking in the top 18% of all bulls tested for net feed efficiency.

Bred Heifers We will be bringing 100+ of the top Bred Heifers out of our commercial herd. There will be groups of Straight Hereford, Red Angus, and Hereford Angus cross Heifers.

Give us a call or stop in to see the heifers.

Notes

EPDs Used:

MM: The milk EPD indicates the ability of a sire’s daughters to provide their calves with an environment that encourages growth from birth to weaning, through mothering ability and milk production.

This EPD is expressed in the expected difference in pounds of calf at weaning.

Leptin, PMCH, IGF2, CRH4: Leptin : Having a TT genotype animal allows for an increased rate of fat accumulation compared to a CC animal. Other benefits include: • Increased weaning weight • Increased milk production • Increased 12th rib backfat • Higher quality grade / marbling score • Lower yield grade • Increased cow productive life PMCH: Having an AA genotype animal allows for increased fat deposition compared to a TT animal. Other benefits include: • Increased tenderness • Increased marbling fat • Increased 12th rib backfat

TM: Also known as Milk + Growth, this EPD combines the milk EPD plus 1/2 the weaning weight EPD. It is expressed in pounds of calf weaned at 205-days and combines the genetics for pre- weaning growth and the influence of the maternal environment on the weaning weight of the daughter’s progeny.

IGF2: Having a CC genotype animal results in increased lean growth compared to a TT animal. Other benefits include: • Larger ribeye CRH4: Having a GG genotype animal results in increased weights compared to a CC animal. Other benefits include: • Increased HCW • Increased REA How it works: We test each individual animal and determine their genotype. Each test identifies a gene (Leptin, PMCH, CRH, IGF2), produces a genotype (example TT), and provides you the information necessary to make informed decisions that will lead to improved efficiency and greater wealth.
