Welcome!
Fellow cattlemen, friends, and neighbors.
Welcome to the third annual Zerr Red Angus production sale, I’d like to start by thanking all who have shown interest in our program and family over the years, whether a compliment in passing a conversation on the side of a road or over the phone, your kind words of encouragement give us confidence and determination to continue onwards in our dreams. We are blessed to be here after two very hard years of drought. I have learned a great deal about myself and the cows throughout these harsh dry times. Maintenance and Stayability were two traits I sought after as I was getting started back in 2015, because of those two traits we have been able to grow and expand in herd size. Our core beliefs of providing maternal driven cattle that are phenotypically correct with adequate performance are still firmly in play, with the anticipation of retention and expansion I find these principals to be a foundation for the future to the cattle industry. You can see these exact beliefs before you in this catalog.
This cowherd is leaps and bounds ahead of where it was just two years ago. Walking away from that first production sale in 2022, I had already made most of the breeding decisions that are represented in this year’s catalog. Nearly all the embryos had been recovered and the remaining scheduled flushes were locked in. I had secured the semen needed for A.I. projects. All this program needed was patience and perseverance to make it through the drought. This program is always two years ahead in my mind. I don’t know if I’ve ever said it, but I’ll never from today forward tell you, “This is my best set of calves”. As good as they may be, the newborn calves on their mommas are better than todays set, and the ones I’m making for 2025…stay tuned!
Thank you for your past and continued support.
Jerrad, Casey, Wyatt, Nolan, and
Thank YOU
Special Thanks to my wife Casey our children Wyatt, Nolan and Hannah. My parents Alan and Challis Zerr, My Grandparents Willie and Louella Zerr, without them none of this would be possible. Thank you to all our friends and family that have helped us get to this day. And lastly to all our past and current customers. I am forever grateful for your support.
JERRAD ZERR Hannah ZerrRed Angus Guide to EPDS and Indexes
ProS ... Profitability and Sustainability is an all-purpose index that predicts average economic differences in all segments in the beef supply chain. This index is a combination of the breeding objectives modeled in the HerdBuilder and GridMaster selection indexes. In this index, replacement heifers are retained from within the herd and all remaining progeny are fed out to slaughter and sold on a quality-based grid. Traits included in this index include calving ease, growth, HPG, STAY, Mature Weight, Dry Matter Intake and carcass traits. The resulting index is expressed in dollars per head born (Index/High Value).
HB ..... HerdBuilder is a maternal selection index that predicts the economic differences of animals for traits that are important from conception through weaning. Expressed as dollars per head born, HB is calculated based on the scenario that bulls are mated to heifers and cows, replacement heifers are retained and all remaining progeny are marketed at weaning. Traits included in the HB index include Calving Ease Direct, Calving Ease Maternal, Weaning Weight, Milk, Mature Weight, Heifer Pregnancy and Stayability (Index/High Value).
GM..... GridMaster is a selection index that predicts the average economic difference of non-replacement calves through the postweaning phase of production. GM places selection pressure on growth, feedyard performance and carcass traits. Expressed as dollars per head born, GM is calculated based on the scenario that progeny are fed out to slaughter and marketed on a quality-based carcass grid. Traits included in GM include Average Daily Gain, Carcass Weight, Dry Matter Intake, Marbling, Back Fat and Rib Eye Area (Index/High Value).
CED Calving Ease Direct predicts differences in the percent of calves born unassisted out of 2-year-old dams. (Percent/High Value)
BW Birth Weight predicts differences in actual birth weight of progeny. (Pounds/Low Value)
WW Weaning Weight predicts differences in 205-day weaning weight. (Pounds/High Value)
YW Yearling Weight predicts differences in 365-day yearling weight. (Pounds/High Value)
ADG Average Daily Gain predicts differences in weight gain between 205 and 365 days of age. (Pounds/High Value)
DMI Dry Matter Intake predicts differences in daily feed intake as measured in a feedlot during the post-weaning period. (Pounds/Low Value)
MILK Milk predicts differences in weaning weight attributed to the milking ability of the animal’s daughters. (Pounds/High Value)
ME Maintenance Energy predicts the difference in maintence energy requirements. (Mcal per Month/Low Value)
HPG Heifer Pregnancy predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to conceive and calve at 2 years of age following exposure to breeding. (Percent/High Value)
CEM Calving Ease Maternal predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to calve unassisted as 2-year-old heifers. (Percent/High Value)
STAY Stayability predicts differences in the ability of an animals’ retained daughters to remain productive in the herd – calve every year – through 6 years of age. (Percent/High Value)
MARB Marbling predicts differences in marbling score – amount of intramuscular fat measured at the 13th rib. (Marbling Score Units/High Value)
YG Yield Grade predicts differences in USDA Yield Grade, which is calculated using CW, REA and Fat. (Yield Grade Units/Low Value)
CW Carcass Weight predicts differences in actual hot carcass weight. (Pounds/High Value)
REA Ribeye Area predicts differences in square inches of ribeye area measured at the 13th rib.(Square Inches/High Value)
FAT Fat predicts differences in the depth of backfat measured between the 12th and 13th ribs. (Inches/Low Value)

Research Validates Red Angus as Most-Favored Female
Ranchers across the country have long recognized the value of Red Angus females as the foundation of a profitable cowherd. Now, independent research validates those years of cattle production experience with tangible data proving the Red Angus heifer’s worth.
Research Confirmation
Esther McCabe, et al., of Kansas State University, led a study that conrmed Red Angus are the most-favored female in the industry. McCabe and her team compiled ve years’ worth of pricing data from Superior Livestock Auction, comparing 13,804 lots of heifer calves totaling over 1.2 million head that sold in 116 video auctions.
The research team evaluated the effects of independent variables on the sale price of heifer calves that fell into six different breed composition groups: English, English crosses, English-Continental crosses, Black Angus-sired out of dams with no Brahman inuence, Red Angus-sired out of dams with no Brahman inuence, and Brahmaninuenced.
They deduced that Red Angus-sired heifer calves bring $5 to $9 more per hundredweight than all other breed types.
Rancher Trusted
While market research validates the price advantage of Red Angus heifers, ranchers have tested and trusted her worth on the range for years. Red Angus females are desirable as replacement heifers because they mature into productive mother cows that reward producers with extra dollars in their pockets on sale day.
Red Angus cows have gained ranchers’ trust as a complete package through fertility, eshing ability, good disposition, longevity and excellent overall production. They produce feeder calves that earn premiums in the yard and on the rail through docility, feed efciency, conversion and carcass merit.
Over the years, stockmen have voted with their checkbooks, purchasing heifers they know will bring protability to their ranching businesses – and Red Angus females are their most-favored choice. ■
Independent research studying five years of Superior Livestock Auction data confirms the value of Red Angus replacement females.

ZERR Cool Hand Luke L17, year after year 707E delivers elite progeny, so this is nothing new. She will go down as the most prolific Mimi W085 daughter ever. When I had the opportunity to buy NIO Rattler 1065 semen, I jumped all over it. An Elite phenotype son with balanced epds, sired by the great Six Mile John Wick 882E and anchored by the exquisite U2 Beauty 113Z, pairing him with 707E was as absolute, of an idea as I’ve ever had. The flush resulted in tremendous success, with four full brothers and three full sisters being the rock of which this sale is built on. This February born herd sire checks off all the boxes. Elite phenotype, elite genetics, calving ease, growth, power, a true herd bull. Ranks in the top, 9% ProS, 2% HB, 9% CED, 8% CEM, 2% STAY, 2% YG and 16% REA.

They are easy keeping, deep sow bellied, big boned donors waiting for the opportunity to produce herd bulls and donor quality females themselves. L6 measured 171.36cm on total pelvic area. Zerr Red Angus retains the right to two flushes.
