3. The program allows you to place a proxy bid on any sale lot. This in fact protects your interest in any lot of interest for you to a specified dollar value you set, when you may not be able to give 100% attention to the sale. If the lot has a $2000 bid on it and you place a proxy bid of $3500 into the system, the computer will bid $2100 for you but if some one else bids $2200, the computer will again bid for you, this time at $2300.

Welcome Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to browse through our 2023 Red Letter Foundations Sale. Everyone has that one cow family or families that just keep on producing high quality calves; regardless of the mating. As the years pass by and you look back at your herd you see that many of your top females come from those original cows. This fall we decided to give you the opportunity to access some of our most prolific families. Names like Samaria who in turn created a new cow family for us; the Yesmaam’s. Or Lassie’s, who all stemmed from the infamous KBJ Round Lassie 18T. You will find daughters out of our herd bull Judge 22G, a direct son of Reckoning. And a feature embryo lot from Yesmaam 162Y and Red Lwnbrg Slowburn 102H. We are incredibly proud of the proven bloodlines represented in the females on offer. We think they have the potential to make an impact in your herd as they have for us. So grab a coffee and catch a glimpse into the heart of our herd!

Red B-Elle Yesmaam 162Y
Yesmaam Cow Family
In the fall of 1995 we purchased Red Valleyhills Samaria 85D. She was a dark red, thick, moderate bred heifer who very quickly began to build her legacy. Several of her daughters became 4H winners, and then 16 years later a pretty, cherry red heifer; Yesmaam 162Y was born into the Samaria cow line. Through out the years she steadily worked away. We have kept every daughter and her sons have done a lot of good for some very good cattlemen. Those daughters and grand daughters have proven the productivity of the Yesmaam line. Fast forward and Jeffrey has a dream. Let’s halter break this 11 year old ranch cow and her attractive looking bull calf Revelation 215K and show them. Some of us thought it couldn’t or shouldn’t be done; but he proved us wrong. She was a dream to handle and was admired in the arena by many. Dark red, wide topped, deep ribbed, feminine fronted, ideal skull, alert upright ears and yet still pretty, gentle and quiet. She was picked out and admired by those who saw her for her remarkable core capacity. We love this cow and she has more than proven her worth as a herd matron.

Yesmaam 162Y is the kind of cow that never misses; so who do you flush her to? When we saw Slowburn 102H himself at Leeuwenburgh’s he checked a lot of the boxes. Exceptionally footed, great skull with a big hip. His progeny showed the same phenotypical consistency between ranches that one had come to expect from him. Due to this consistency we felt this was a bloodline that we could confidently use. Yesmaam 162Y went to Bow Valley and had a successful conventional flush to Slowburn 102H. These will be the only embryos that will be sold from Yesmaam 162Y; ever. Don't miss out on this opportunity.
One Package of 3 Embryos, guaranteeing one 90 day pregnancy if implanted by a certified Implant Technician. CAN/US/AUS qualified. Embryos stored at Bow Valley Genetics.

We started B-Elle Red Angus in the early 1990’s, slowly building a herd by purchasing bred heifers and young cows. KBJ 55F came up for offer at the Lakeland Select Sale managed by Rob Holowaychuk of OBI. She was an outcross out of black genetics, a direct daughter of the KBJ Round Lassie 18T cow. A black red carrier who didn’t have a red hided cow in her three generation pedigree. Purchasing an open heifer instead of a bred was a stretch for us as young breeders, it was a longer time to see a profit.These were tried and proven genetics that we felt we could count on and build a herd on. We purchased her for $3125, which was a lot of money back then. And so began the Lassie cow family.
Lassie Family
Lassie Cow Family
That investment paid off and over the years that Lassie cow produced female after female, that proved to be sound honest cows. 43J, 187L, 223M, 635S; and those daughters produced daughters 421P, 531R, 836U, 906W, 2X, 730T, 210Z, 376A, 467B. Generations of Lassie cows have laid a trusted foundation here, and the bull calves have done much the same for many of our commercial bull buyers. Typically stamped with a deep bronze red colour and excellent feet. If you take the time to sift through the pedigrees of many of our cows or if you trust us that we’ve done just that; you will find that KBJ 55F cow family deeply rooted here on our ranch.
