Welcome from BIG GULLY farm
10 AND 56 - the number of years hosting a live bull sale AND breeding Hereford seedstock, respectively. Transitioning from selling private treaty to publicly a decade ago was an anxious, stressful, exciting, methodical, humbling and necessary experienceevery year those feelings endure. Suffice it to say, we appreciate every person, family and operation that has supported us before and since-validating that decision 10 years ago. Breeding the whiteface bulls to build profitable, productive, durable and maternal baldy cattle for commercial producers is our PRIMARY desire. Invigorating the utilization of Hereford cattle for their time-tested: docility, adaptability, feed efficiency, resilience, structure, fertility, longevity and crossbreeding versatility remains top of mind. Advancing past that is where the REAL EFFORT needed to and has taken place. Instilling udder quality, milk, moderate frame, muscle, balance, center body dimension, pigment and favourable genomic-enhanced breeding values for performance/maternal/end product values continues to be the scope of our breeding priorities. Working to attract a youthful generation of cost and resource conscious producers is very fulfilling for us. Yet, equally satisfying is breeding gentle, versatile and efficient cattle to make life more pleasant for established operators. The most powerful tool a commercial producer has at their disposal is heterosis or hybrid vigour, derived from a structured crossbreeding system. This is especially true for lowly heritable traits like fertility and longevitythe REAL PROFIT DRIVERS. Fortunately, Herefords are a pure outcross to optimize heterosis on solid black, red, and white cows. Consider that every GENUINE BALDY bred or open female that demands a premium on the replacement market is surprisingly part Hereford… We would love to host you Thursday, December 7th, 2023 at 4:30 MT. Please consider taking a night off from the farm or ranch to bring your family and friends to our pre-Christmas event. Please reach out to us at 306-903-7299 if we can do anything to assist you. Sincerely,
Lance & Shari Leachman biggullyfarm@gmail.com | Lance: (306) 903-7299 | Shari: (306) 903-7289

About
BIG GULLY farm
Acquiring Genetics: Our AI and natural herd sires are acquired from humble, hard working and professional families throughout Canada and the United States. Our intent is to source from breeders that couple: maternal productivity, visual distinction, comprehensive data collection, carcass ultrasound testing and genomic-enhanced EPD’s. Moreover, these genetic providers focus on commercial bull production and operate in environments typically harsher than our own. Breeding: We heavily utilize artificial insemination on sires that we either own, have personally evaluated or have great confidence in based on research and testimonials. We will AI as many cows on natural heats as possible for the first 1-2 cycles and then turn out herd bulls. First calf heifers are now bull bred from the start of the season. Typically, we synchronize all the replacements for a timed AI, along with heat detection-then turn bulls in immediately.
temporarily. Similarly, those will be the two options they are fed before heading to summer pasture. Herd Health: Calves (Birth): Nasalgen 3-PMH, Vitaferst, Toltrazuril, Multimin 90. Calves (Pasture Turnout): Bovi-Shield Gold One-Shot, Tasvax 8, Solmectin. Calves (Pre-Weaning): Bovi-Shield Gold FP5, Tasvax 8, Safeguard, Solmectin, Multimin 90. Cows/Replacements/Yearling Bulls (Pre-Breeding): BoviShield Gold FP5, Tasvax 8. Cows/Replacements/Yearling Bulls (Pasture Turnout): Solmectin. Cows/Bred Heifers (Weaning): Tasvax 8, Scour Bos 9. Bred Heifers (Pre-Calving): Scour Bos 4, Multimin 90.
Bull/Cowherd Nutrition: Bull calves and long yearling bulls are developed with hammer milled oats and protein supplement and provided hay, along with free choice mineral/salt. The cowherd grazes native/tame pasture and then transitions to corn grazing prior to and after calving. On corn they are provided a free choice high calcium mineral, along with salt. Just prior to calving, they are penned close to the yard and fed hay or greenfeed december 7, 2023 | maidstone, sk

Apparition was an early standout as a dark colored, red eyed attractive, homo polled option. He is level lined, square hipped and muscular. His home raised sire, was a high seller two years ago and simply left a disproportionately larger group of strong heifer calves. His dam is a moderate framed, deep middled daughter of All Star A191-a bull whose daughters are productive and advance genetic values. december 7, 2023 | maidstone, sk

Composure is another practical son of our calving ease, heifer sire-Settler 190H. Like his siblings, this bull is athletic on the move, short marked, deep middled and well balanced. His first calf mother is refined in her udder and strong in her udder attachment, respectively. A calf that is complete and should offer strong maternal competence in a set of replacement daughters. december 7, 2023 | maidstone, sk

Epitome is deep ribbed, short marked and sound in motion. His genetic script is exemplary across a variety of traits. His first calf dam is moderate framed, well balanced, correct uddered and big middled. These Masterplan 183F sons were consistently modest sized at birth, yet generate impressive growth-particularly being used solely on heifers.

Rectify is a dark red, fully pigmented calf that is long bodied, larger statured, level lined and easy traveling. His sire, Jupiter 11J, was our choice of the Phantom Creek private treaty bull calf pen in the fall of 2021-a sire with exceptional early growth, yet stayed acceptable in mature stature. His dam is a striking, powerful female with a wide, square top and well suspended udder.

Verdict generated impressive performance considering his moderate birthweight and being a heifer’s first calf. He is red eyed, long sided, deep bodied, and sound traveling. Genetically, he charts impressive predictions for growth, maternal calving ease and carcass merit. His Long Range 203D sire dam is similarly long, deep with small teats and strong apparent milk.

Jury Duty is a bold ribbed, deep sided, thick ended calf that has an easy fleshing look. We really like his dam for her udder quality, huge ribcage and maternal productivity. Random observation, but his dam and grandam are 2 of the 4 cows who won’t fit our alleyways to administer scour vaccine pre-parturition. He should offer breeding versatility based on his physical merit and strong multi-trait estimates. december 7, 2023 | maidstone, sk

Skyfall is easily identifiable with his big red goggle eyes and earlier developing masculinity. He always has extra presence with his attractive neck to shoulder attachment, balance, strength of top and muscle shape. His dam is a moderate sized, broody, big bodied female that easily maintains body condition. We think highly of this bull and considering his build and shape, suggest he would have strong calving ease also. CONSIDERING RETAINING AN INTEREST.

These Manifest 87G progeny are consistently moderate birthweight and calve easily, yet don’t compromise length, frame and growth thereafter-matching the growth spread in his genetic script.

133K is a heterozygous polled heifer’s first calf. His dam is moderate, bold middled, appears heavy milking and correct in her udder. Similarly, 133K is moderate framed, deep sided and travels with ease and flexibility. The maternal strength on both sides of the pedigree lends itself to commercial replacement heifer production. Note this bull is MDC.

Your maximum amount is kept confidential from other bidders and the seller. Even though you can see this amount on your screen, no one else can. The LiveAuctions system compares your bid to those of the other registered bidders and the system automatically places bids on your behalf, using only as much of your bid as is necessary to maintain your high bid position. The system will bid only up to your maximum amount as necessary to maintain you as the high bidder. If another bidder has a higher maximum, you’ll be outbid and the system will tell you that “YOU’RE OUT.” But, if no other bidder has a higher maximum you win the final bid.

The LEARNING award We have decided to alter the Big Gully Farm Beef Cattle Learning Award to more intimately give back to the families whose support we have been fortunate to receive through their bull acquisitions. The purchaser of each bull will be entered in a draw for 3 awards of $1000 each. Each successful draw winner will then have to choose one or more youth to be sent that award in its entirety or divided portion, respectively.
Youth must use the award on beef cattle-related experience such as an AI course, workshop, 4-H/breeding animal purchase, animal science tuition, etc. Successful youth may only receive one award per year.
