Transcon Livestock Corp. welcome from
Prairie Partners 2023... First off I would like to welcome Handford Simmentals from Snowflake Manitoba on being the new partner in the Prairie Partners sale. The Handfords have been in the business of of raising and marketing high quality and very functional cattle for quite some time.
What a great opportunity for these two southern Manitoba breeding establishments to join forces and put forth Prairie Partners 2023. The Marchants and Handfords are huge supporters and advocates to the agriculture industry. Both families are highly motivated and extremely hard working and love what they do. Reputation breeders that produce the right kind of cattle that go out and work in the industry. Countless hours are spent studying genetics and then applying that knowledge to the cowherd. Both programs are always striving to produce an end product that will be advantageous to both the commercial and purebred catttleman.
This sale offers a large and diverse cross section of yearling bulls Reds/Blacks and Fullbloods, as well as a very strong set of extra age bulls. The consistency of sire groups really shows up throughout the offering. Whether it’s calving ease or true beef bulls your looking to purchase. I believe you will find a bull in this sale that will work for you.
Bulls that are structurally sound in their type and makeup. They are big ribbed and soft sided with length of spine and natural thickness. Bulls that have width up over their tops as well as carrying that lower quarter. They are hairy and have super quiet dispositions.
On behalf of the families at Silver Lake Farms and Handford Simmentals, we invite you to join us in Southern Manitoba Tuesday March 14th at the Killarney Auction Mart and bid on and purchase a damn good set of bulls.
Please feel free to give anyone of us a call at Transcon to assist you with any information, appraisals or bidding/buying assistance that may be required if you are unable to attend the sale in person.

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the 2023 Prairie Partners Bull Sale. We would also like to thank each one of you that have taken the time to go through our catalog and reach out to us about the bull offering and those who have purchased bulls or females from us in the past!
THANK YOU!
The bull sale looks a bit different this year as the Jones’s have retired (sort of)! Since joining the sale in 2015, we have learnt many life lessons during that time! Gordon, Lauren and Donalee, thank you for your guidance and friendship. Lauren – we will make sure those tails are combed out and fluffed sale day. Doll – thank you for the countless hours you spent coordinating and ensuring the ads and marketing pieces were all done on time!
Now we would like to welcome the Handfords to the Prairie Partners Bull Sale! We have been working with the Handfords over the past few years through the Pembina Triangle sale in assisting getting the heifers ready. We believe they have a strong red and black program that compliments the offering here at the Prairie Partners and we look forward to continuing to work with Robert and Jason for years to come!
With that being said, it’s time to talk about the bulls! I wasn’t sure how we were going to follow the 2022 sale, but the boys speak for themselves. Black, red or fleck; polled or horned, we have something for everyone. I couldn’t be more proud of this year’s group of bulls.
The bulls are developed on native grass and mommas milk until early August when we start them on whole oat creep feed. They stay on oat/corn creep feed through weaning until the corn silage is ready. In mid-November they are transitioned to a TMR ration of corn silage, alfalfa hay, corn grain and fully chelated mineral package which they will remain on until they are delivered. We do our best to ensure bulls are delivered right to your doorstep!
We reserve the right to draw semen for in herd use only, on any of the bulls in the offering. Coat color, diluter and polled test results will be available prior to the sale. We strongly encourage you to come tour the bulls at home but understand how hard that can be to get away! Please do not hesitate to give us a call or reach out to any of the Transcon or First Class Marketing staff.
Thanks again and best of luck in your hunt for your next herdsire.

This set of brothers is impressive! We cannot say enough about the Anchor D 175C cow, she has proven herself time and again here, and is why she is one of our top donors.

His dam is super thick deep sided cow that milks! Kendrick was the heavy weight at weaning weighing in at 1045 in September then by the end of January he was 1600lbs!

Kendrix is a bull we are pretty impressed with. We bought his dam out of the Pembina Triangle sale last year from Berts NR Simmentals and she did a bang-up job on this guy as her first calf. He has heifer bull written all over him, being in the 4th percentile rank for Calving Ease and has a modest birth weight of 71lbs but still weaned close to 900lbs in September!
Here is a great heifer bull prospect! He is an unregistered bull, straight Simmental all the way back! His dam goes back to Night Hawk and Cobra, both proven calving ease bulls and we used Gustavo on a few heifers as well. He is soft made and super easy doing. His dark red almost black coloring is added perk!
Kipp is another heifer bull prospect. This Heat Wave son is long bodied and smooth made. His Dam OJ Circus is one we bought out of the Cobra Event and has done very well, producing a high selling bull calf as a heifer then her second calf was a heifer that we have kept and is the dam of 944J (lot 24).

Changes are inevitable and with the realignment of the Neepawa sale the chance to join the Silver Lake crew and cut our travel time in half was an easy decision to make.
Especially since Andrea already does half our work!!
I would like to thank all the previous bidders and buyers from all our years in Neepawa and hope you will follow us to Killarney. This year we have sire verified all our bulls to ensure you are getting the bull you are looking for. We would also like to reserve the right to draw in herd use semen on any of our sale bulls.

Red Rocket sure adds some jam to his calves but we have had no calving issues with the ones we’ve had. Heavy muscled, big topped future herdsire here. lot

Dug deep in the tank to try some old genetics and Im sure glad I did. 18K is a smooth shouldered bull with good muscle and hair. This Dream On son should be heifer pen safe. Another first calf heifer that has done an incredible job.

The bull feeding program is built to maximize forage utilization and gut health; they are developed on grass with their moms on a strict mineral program. All the forages are sampled and analyzed to ensure quality forages are used. Once the calves are weaned, they are slowly moved onto a balanced TMR.
The bulls are challenged with a forage-based TMR to help them develop and express their genetic potential. Matching suitable protein sources with proper starch is key to promoting lean muscle growth. Organic minerals are used to ensure proper immune function and overall health. If you have any questions about the nutrition program, please feel free to reach out. Buy with confidence knowing the bulls have been developed on a balanced nutrition program. Best of luck on sale day!
