Why Buy a Bull from Niobrara Red Angus ?
The Most Progressive Genetics
In developing our core to breed from, we have made it a priority to visit and visually appraise an alarming number of Red Angus breeders across the country. In those visits, we identified certain lines and kinds of Red Angus cattle that we felt check the most boxes; sticking to what we feel provide the most fertility, longevity, and profitability in the beef business. Feel confident in knowing that you have available in front of you, yearling bulls that are the direct progeny of some of the breed’s most elite seedstock in North America.

Bull Development
Tired of fat, lazy bulls that were pushed to their structural limits in development? We are too! These bulls were developed at home, on the ranch in Niobrara, NE. Added fat in a bull’s scrotum only prolongs their ability to regulate temperature for proper semen production. Feel confident these bulls will be genuine in their condition and shape and ready to work!
NEW THIS YEAR - INSURANCE/FIRST BREEDING SEASON GUARANTEE
Please reference the Martin Trudeau Insurance insert, outlining the Livestock Insurance options available for purchase on sale day.
All bulls will have passed a breeding soundness exam, prior to sale day. New This Year, we will offer to share the insurance premium to purchase Bull Mortality & ASD Infertility insurance through Martin Trudeau Insurance of Mitchell, SD. The seller will pay the first 5% of the purchase price of the insurance premium on whichever policy the buyer wishes to receive. A representative of Martin Trudeau will be available sale day. If the buyer declines this coverage, he/she assumes full risk for the bull. We would suggest that normal care still needs to be exercised toward these animals and particularly yearling bulls to maintain adequate body condition.
