August 29, 2020 Buyers and Visitors, Welcome to the 19th Annual Southern Producers Replacement Heifer Sale. Thank you for your interest in this top-quality set of females. The consignors have established a stringent set of guidelines for that each bred heifer must meet in order to be sold through this sale.

Each heifer will have been palpated to confirm pregnancy within 30 days of the sale. Pelvic measurements are included

in order to reduce the risk involved in calving these heifers. Cattle have been screened for obvious defects and any other problems. If you see a problem we might have missed, please bring it to our attention before the sale.

Over the past 19 years our quality has steadily improved. This year’s offering is no exception. Throughout this catalog, you will find females that conceived during a tight breeding seasons and that will sell in ideal body condition score for calving.

In today's market quality and consignor reputation are very important. Service sire EPDs are part of the catalog. If it anytime you have a question, feel free to ask our consignors. They will be glad to share the information with you.

Because of Brahman influence, some heifers are a little later maturing. With that said, some consignors elect to calve their heifers out as three-year olds. We allow cattle to sell that have just cut their three-year-old teeth because of that reason.

These females are indicated in the catalog.

Thanks for your consideration.

These heifers are all home-raised, they will begin calving in mid-September at 2 years of age. They have been developed on forages with limited supplements.

The baldies are sired by Registered Hereford bulls from McGuffee Herefords. The 2 black heifers are sired by a Reg Angus from Thames Angus. They are all bred to a LBW Reg Angus from Thames who has done a really good job for us.

They were raised on our health program and were boostered in May 2020 with Vira-shield VL6 HB, Vision 7 (blackleg), and Safe-guard wormer. They are ready to go to work.

We have been in the commercial cattle business since 1970 and have chosen seedstock that work well for us in the heavy, black soils of Noxubee County and the extremely hot, humid summers of Pearl River county. These cattle are the product of choosing bulls with excellent EPD’s. Our cows are selected to have good attitudes, be easy-keeping and have high production. Of the last 1,348 cows and heifers that have calved on our ranch, we have assisted with only two deliveries, one was backwards and the other was out of an obese heifer that was too lazy to push. I pulled the calf unassisted with my 78-year-old hands! It lived! These heifers were pregnancy checked, pelvic measured, and de-wormed on 7-30-20 by Dr. Kevin Walters, MSU Vet School. They are up to date on all immunizations. Also, I have immunized against Brucellosis and calf scours. The last seven Registered Black Brangus bulls that I have used had EPD’s that average: BW= -1.7; CED= +8.9; WW= +14.1 ;YW =+22.9; Milk= +7.9. The registered Angus that the heifers are bred to has EPD’s as follows: BW= -0.5; CED = +7.8; WW = +59.2; YW = +104. Heifers 61, 63, 65, 66, 67, 73, 75, 77 are out of F1 Braford cows and Brangus bulls. Heifers 68 and 69 are F1 Angus/Brahman cross.

The remaining heifers are out of Brangus bulls and mixed commercial cows.

Ladner x Ladner strives to provide quality Brangus and Brangus baldy replacement heifers. We enjoy raising Brangus cattle for their strong maternal characteristics and heat tolerance.

Ladner x Ladner cattle are handled on a regular basis and most of the time by a different member of the Ladner x Ladner group depending on the time of the year. This desensitizes our cattle, allows for easy transferring from field along with penning and sorting and gives them an overall good disposition. With the rising cost of feed, we aim to rely on summer and winter grazing for the majority of our growth source. ➢ All heifers were A.I.’ed on December 11th to a low BW Angus bull ➢ 10 days later a low BW. Angus bull was turned out
