14th Annual Bull Sale

Rippe Gelbvieh 2013

Greetings Cattlemen: Rippe Gelbvieh has continued to assemble a cowherd that is balanced in ALL traits that are economically important to our customers—commercial cattlemen. At Rippe Gelbvieh, we would like to have the opportunity to put our genetics and crossbreeding program to work on your operation. We have a complete lineup of Balancer and Purebred bulls that have enough genetic variation to compliment your cowherd and allow you to take full advantage of the “free lunch” that heterosis and hybrid vigor offer.

I feel we are doing more from a genetic selection and testing standpoint than the majority of seed stock operations. I believe we are separating ourselves from other seed stock operations in two main areas. The first is carcass data. Most operations ultrasound scan or DNA their bulls, but how many scan their bulls, scan their heifers, and receive individual carcass data on all of their steers?

In addition, we try and receive data from a few of our customers’ cattle each year to measure our success from a carcass standpoint.

We feed cattle throughout the year. A lot of people just talk about it. The second area is measuring cow size and efficiency. Each cow is weighed every fall when we pregnancy test. Later, this is compared to the weaning weight of their calf. We also track the essentials in a cow like structure and udder scores. This year we included all of this data in the catalog. It is our hope that you find the more information we track valuable. It is important for us at Rippe Gelbvieh to track our cowherd and our bulls so that we can make genetic progress.

Be sure to check our website, www.rippegelbvieh.com, as the sale draws near. We will be posting additional information including the supplement sheet and videos of the bulls. We encourage each of you to visit us prior to the sale. These visits allow us a lot more time to understand your program’s needs and wants so we can better assist you in selecting your new herdsire.

As always, we look forward to visiting with past customers and making new ones. Allow our program to help maximize the profitability of your cowherd.

Rippe Gelbvieh Bull Guarantee • Our # 1 goal is customer satisfaction.

• Rippe Gelbvieh takes 100% responsibility on every bull purchased from our sale until the bull is delivered to your ranch. If there is any problem with the bull upon delivery or at our place we will cover the cost completely and make sure you are satisfied.

• If you experience a problem with disposition or structural soundness soon after you receive your purchase, Rippe Gelbvieh will replace the bull with similar quality, take the bull back and offer credit on next year’s sale, or give you a full refund of your money.

• If you experience abnormal calving difficulty where the herdsire is at fault we demand that the bull be sold for slaughter and a full refund applied to a replacement bull of the buyer’s choice.

First Season Death and Injury Warranty Rippe Gelbvieh has offered to share this cost with their customers.

There was a lot of confusion over our old warranty. Our new program will allow us to keep our customers satisfied and allow both parties to be satisfied with everyone sharing in the cost.

Coverage/Limitations The coverage of this warranty is for the first breeding season or for the first 90 days after the bull is turned out, unless other arrangements are made. This warranty is good for death and all loss-of-use injuries. The warranty is void if this is caused by negligence or mistreatment of the bull. Replacement value will be the actual purchase cost of the Rippe Gelbvieh bulls covered minus any salvage value or other compensation received by the customer.

Claims All claims must be reported to Rippe Gelbvieh within 24 hours of discovery and must be examined by a licensed veterinarian.

Injured If the injury is not permanent and can be returned to service, Rippe Gelbvieh will work with you to supply a replacement bull to use, at no cost, until the original bull can be returned to service.

If the injury is permanent, Rippe Gelbvieh will supply a bull to finish out the season. At the end of the breeding season the customer can choose to keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Rippe Gelbvieh and receive credit on next year’s sale. The credit will equal the purchase price of the bull minus any salvage value from the original bull.

Death When a Rippe Gelbvieh bull dies between the dates outlined above Rippe Gelbvieh will supply another bull to finish out the breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can either keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or receive credit on next year’s sale. The credit will equal the purchase price of the bull minus any compensation received by an insurance company.

Cost Cost for the death and injury warranty will be 5% of purchase price, due at time of purchase. We feel that this is a reasonable cost where we can all share in the cost of a loss in a bull during the first breeding season.

If a customer chooses not to cover their animal against death or injury, they assume all risk associated with the bull once it leaves our place.

Homozygous – If an animal is Homozygous for Polled or Black, you will not have a Horned or Red calf born out of this sire. If an animal is Heterozygous, it carries one allele for either horned/polled or red/black. If an animal simply has black or polled written, it has not been DNA tested for this trait.

New Generation AGA EPDs The American Gelbvieh Association’s (AGA) January 2013 EPDs are based on a new collaborative national cattle evaluation (NCE) with the American Simmental Association (ASA). Below is a summary of some of the enhancements to the AGA new generation EPDs, followed by trait averages and percentile charts.

Gelbvieh and Balancer® Share a Common Base with Simmental and Red Angus Gelbvieh and Balancer EPDs are now on the same base with Simmental and Red Angus, which means that EPDs for each trait (except stayability) are directly comparable to ASA and Red Angus Association of America (RAAA) EPDs. This was a huge, progressive decision by the AGA Board of Directors, made to simplify bull selection for commercial producers.

Calving Ease and Calving Ease Daughters EPDs Converted to Industry Standard Terminology For over 25 years, the AGA calving ease (CE) and calving ease daughter (CED) EPDs were reported in the form of a ratio. They are now reflected as percentages. Higher CE values equal more unassisted births from sires when mated to first-calf heifers.

Higher CED EPDs indicate less calving difficulty from a sire’s own first-calf daughters.

Multi-Breed EPDs Provide More Complete Balancer EPDs The true multi-breed EPD NCE conducted by the ASA enables the inclusion of more progeny data from Red Angus and Angus sires, especially for the carcass traits.

Growth Traits are More Reliable The new EPDs for weaning weight (WW), yearling weight (YW) and carass weight (CW) are more reliable because the new statistical process accepts a wider age window for weaning weight.

This is especially beneficial for breeders that wean calves early due to drought. Historically, weights from early-weaned calves were not included in the NCE.

Carcass Traits are Standardized In recent years, Gelbvieh and Balancer carcass traits were adjusted to a fat end-point instead of an age endpoint like the rest of the industry. AGA’s transition to age-adjusted carcass EPDs will eliminate the gaps in the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center’s carcass EPD breed comparisons. This change also means that the days-to-finish (DtF) EPD is replaced by a fat (FT) EPD. A yield grade (YG) EPD is also new. For both FT and YG, lower EPDs are typically more favorable.

Understanding EPD’s

EPD’s are calculated to predict genetic merit. Rippe Gelbvieh believes strong in the use of EPD’s as they are the most accurate way of predicting genetic performance. Each association used to have their own database and many of them still do, but Gelbvieh, Red Angus, and Simmental formed an alliance to generate EPD’s together. This increased the accuracy of our balancer genetics substantially. Rippe Gelbvieh encourages you to study the EPD’s and if you have any questions, feel free to call Dustin Rippe.

The EPD’s used in this catalog are: Calving Ease Direct (CE): Percent of unassisted births of a bull’s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd.

Birth Weight (BW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf.

Weaning Weight (WW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.

Yearling Weight (YW): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.

Milk (MK): The genetic ability of a sire’s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight.

Yield Grade (YG): Differences in Yield Grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Higher values suggest that progeny will have a lower ratio of lean to fat.

Carcass Weight (CW): Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint.

Ribeye Area (REA): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the 12th and 13th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable.

Marbling (MB): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units.

Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass Quality Grades.

Fat (FT): Differences for fat thickness, in inches, for a carcass over the 12th rib, smaller numbers of fat thickness are preferable as excess fat can be detrimental to yield grade.

What is an Index?

Indexes are tools that allow you to select for several EPDs at once, making selections more efficient than selecting on one trait at a time. Indexes weigh traits based on their importance to a producer’s bottom line by using a trait’s economic and genetic value. Indexes are a good way to put selection emphasis on traits that are economically relevant.

Carcass Value (CV): Expressed in dollar value per head, compares progeny of on animal to another in dollar difference when progeny are sold on a grid. This is a true economic comparison.

Projected carcass weight, penalties for carcass weights that are too heavy or too light, Quality Grade and Yield Grade premiums and discounts are all included in calculating this dollar value index.

Feedlot Merit (FM): Measures the dollar value associated with the expected gain and feedlot efficiency of progeny when fed in a typical feedlot environment.

Rippe Gelbvieh Balancer and Gelbvieh Bull Sale Black Balancer Bulls...................... Lots 1-37 Black Purebred Bulls..................... Lots 38-40 Red Balancer Bulls........................ Lots 41-55 Black Registered Heifers.............. Lots 56-60 Commercial Heifers...................... Lots 61-63 ET Bulls: The ET bulls are raised by a surrogate mother. Therefore, the bulls actual BW and WW are not a representation of the bulls genetics. Consequently, we have chosen not to provide this information as it is inaccurate. EPDs do a much better job of showing the genetic value of these bulls. If you would like to see the actual information on an ET bull please call before the sale.

Semen Interest Rippe Gelbvieh will retain 1/2 revenue sharing semen interest in every bull in the catalog unless otherwise noted. If we decide to collect a bull it will be at our expense and your convenience. If there is income after expenses it will be split evenly. This will only affect a very small portion of the bulls we sell.

Videos of the Bulls You will notice there are not many pictures of the bulls this year in the catalog. This is because we decided to video each and every bull and all the videos are on our website at www.rippegelbvieh.com. We did this because we take great pride in the structure of our bull lineup and this allows buyers to evaluate before they come to our sale.

All of these heifers are balancer heifers that we would normally keep. They have all been pelvic measured, reproductive tract scored, freeze branded, bangs vaccinated, and developed to be excellent females.

All heifers will be kept for free until March 16 and will need to be picked up by owner unless prior arrangements have been made. We would consider ultra-sounding and/or AI’ing these heifers with ours for a reasonable charge if the purchaser would like.
