Saturday, April 17th, 2021 • 1:00 pm I-40 Livestock • Ozark, AR
Leachman Bulls are Winning the Hearts of Cattlemen… “I use only Stabilizer bulls. Since 2005 I have owned 210 Leachman Stabilizer bulls. I like’em cause I can stay with Stabilizers all the way, not changing breeds to retain my hybrid vigor in my bulls, calves and cowherd.”
~ Brett Foster
Booneville, AR
“Our cattle set high standards! Our herd is efficient, high-grading and high yielding – but the cows produce on extensive Wyoming native rangeland. Our calves have the flexibility to optimize heavier carcass weights and premium quality grades without excessive yield grade 4’s and 5’s." ~ Mike Healy L U Ranch, Worland, WY
Cull Heifer Feeding Results 61 cull heifers • 136 days on feed Performance: ADG 4.95 / day Final weight 1515 lbs. Carcass weight 960 lbs. Quality: 97% Choice or higher 57% premium choice or better Efficiency: Converted at 5.64 to 1 Cost of gain (all in) of $0.66

Bulls Will Strengthen
Your Family's Financial Future. “Since we started using Leachman bulls, our weaned calf crop percentage is up 6%, pounds weaned per cow exposed up 12% and our cow size has come down.” ~ Rich Roth, Vice President IX Ranch, Big Sandy, MT
The IX Ranch’s impressive 8 year trend on Pounds Weaned per Cow Exposed!
“I like the simplicity of selecting with Leachman’s $Profit system. It helps me identify the cattle that work the best. It’s simple and easy to use. Since we have been keeping track, the Leachman bulls have the lowest loss percentage of any bulls we buy. They really hold up well!” ~ John Lacey Lacey Livestock Paso Robles, CA (970) 568-3983

Every Leachman sire sells with Genomically Enhanced EPD’s from Zoetis!
What does that mean to you as a bull buyer?
1. More accurate EPD’s. The bulls you buy have more accurate EPDs because of the genomically enhanced (GE) Zoetis analysis of our 1.4 MM animal database. In rough terms, these GE EPDs are TWICE as accurate as non genomically enhanced EPDs. 2. Parentage is verified on every bull we sell. 3. Far more accuracy on the maternal traits that cannot be measured on a bull. These traits include mature size of a bull’s daughters, daughter fertility, daughter milk production, and daughter teat and udder quality!
For Seedstock Herds
What does that mean to you as a bull buyer?
1. You can have EPDs to select your replacement heifers. You invest $1,500 to $2,000 in every replacement heifer that you keep back and put into production. Unfortunately, without data, this process is difficult. In particular, we keep females that come up open and fall out of the system.Parentage is verified on every bull we sell. 2. You can eliminate heifers that don’t fit your specifications. With EPDs, you can select optimal levels of milk, size, and feed requirements. 3. You can create higher value feeder calves. By selecting for the Zoetis Feeder Calf index, you can improve feedlot performance and carcass value in your future calves.
What does this mean to you as a seedstock breeder?
For Commercial Herds
1. Get GE-EPDs and Leachman $Ranch, $Feeder, and $Profit on your cattle. By contributing your seedstock data to the Leachman $Profit Share database, you will be joining leading seedstock producers from around the world. You will have predictions on the feed cost on your animals. You will also have global comparability for your genetics as our database includes cattle from the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the UK -- making it the largest, private, multi-breed, beef cattle database in the world. 2. Gain a new way to help your commercial customers. By linking your genetics to your customers replacement females, you provide improved services to your customers. You can become directly involved in helping them interpret their Inherit Select results. This will make them more loyal customers and better bull buyers.
One Year Guarantee! Leachman Cattle of Colorado is offering a one year guarantee on all bulls that we sell. This guarantee will cover your purchased bull(s) against death, injury, infertility, and loss of use. If, during the first year from purchase, you lose the use of your Leachman bull for whatever reason, we will give you a credit towards the purchase of a new bull. We only ask that your herd veterinarian provide a written statement describing the death, injury, or infertility. If the bull in question can be salvaged, we would like you to keep the salvage value, and a credit will be issued, less the salvage amount you receive for the bull. If the bull is turned out for breeding, then the credit will be given at 75% of the original purchase value (less any salvage value). All claims must be made within 1 year from the date of purchase and cannot exceed the greater of 2 bulls per invoice or 15% of the total invoice. Example 1: Your $5,000 bull dies before you turn him out to breed. You receive a full credit of $5,000. (Purchase Price - $0 Salvage - $0 Use).
from the cows. You sell him for $1000 in salvage. You receive a credit of $2,750 ($5000 purchase - $1000 salvage - $1250 usage). Requirements for claims: 1. All claims must be made within 365 days of purchase. 2. A veterinary statement regarding the circumstances is required. 3. A verbal agreement from Leachman Cattle of Colorado is required prior to a bull being sold for salvage. Documentation of the salvage value of the bull, including identification of the bull on the sale barn ticket, that corresponds to the bulls Leachman identifications (ear tag or metal clip) is also required. This credit can be used for the purchase of bulls, females, semen, and/or embryos from Leachman Cattle of Colorado. If the credit is not used within 24 months of the date of issuance, then it will expire. Note: Guarantee will be revoked on all bulls that are not paid for within 30 days of invoice date.

We Take Raising Bulls Seriously! Every bull offered by Leachman Cattle of Colorado is genomically evaluated, performance tested, and phenotypically analyzed. Lee has scored over 27,000 bulls since moving to Colorado in 2003. Lee Leachman and Craig Hays personally inspect every bull. We assign scores for claw shape, foot angle, disposition, mobility, eye appeal, and overall desirability. We pay special attention to the factors that are causing bulls to fail in the pasture. We watch for bulls that don’t track properly or place their feet down soundly. Any bulls deemed unsound are culled. Bulls with poor claw set are marked in catalogs with the footnote: “Feet-“. Finally, we guarantee every bull for a full year from purchase.
Here, the process starts as Lee brings a bull out of the group to be evaluated individually. The bull is held in a small alleyway or pen while Lee and Craig score the bull.

Craig Hays, Director of Leachman Bull Sales (left), is in charge of the management and preparation of the bulls. Craig comes with a wealth of experience, having ultrasounded over 250,000 animals prior to joining the Leachman team in 2019. Craig also runs his own herd of Stabilizers as a Leachman cooperator. While Lee & Craig don’t always agree, they come to consensus on each bull. Pictures taken scoring the 2020 Loma Sale bulls in October, 2020.

Feed consumption is the #1 driver of cost on your ranch. • It drives supplemental feed cost. • It impacts how many cows you can stock on the ranch. • It drives the amount of feed needed to get young females back in calf. • Our Dry Matter Intake (DMI) EPD is the best in the industry. • Our $Profit, $Ranch, and $Feeder all utilize DMI to drive feed costs.

Leachman - Zoetis Update: Large scale commercial validation proves that $Feeder works! In a study involving 2,428 steers and heifers fed at Lincoln County Feed Yard, Zoetis provided Inherit Select DNA tests. Then, carcass data was collected. The individual EPDs accurately predicted changes in ribeye area, marbling, % premium quality grades, backfat, and carcass weight. This happened despite the cattle coming from 19 herds and 11 states. The cattle were harvested from 6/1/19 to 8/1/20 at Cargill Meat Solutions in Fort Morgan, CO. The cattle were then priced on a fixed market and grid. Avg.

Leachman - Zoetis Update: Zoetis Develops New Fertility (FRT) EPD Using the 1.4 million animal Leachman database, Zoetis has developed a new fertility EPD. This FRT EPD predicts the number of calves that a bull’s daughters will have in their lifetime. When the Leachman genetic trend is analyzed – it shows a huge positive trend. This is further proof that the Leachman program indexes are selecting for improved cowherd fertility over time.
How it works:
Using the FRT EPD will allow commercial herds to improve fertility and daughter retention in their herds. This year all bulls and females in the catalog have been assigned stars based on their percentile rank for FRT EPD. Fertility Stars
The relative number of calves expected from daughters of bulls in each star category

(970) 568-3983
Validation of FRT EPD: An internal evaluation of FRT EPD for proven sires indicated favorable associated average number of calves produced by daughters. The evaluation grouped 109 sires according to their FRT EPD percent rank quartile. It evaluated daughters born prior to 2010 so that all were old enough to express recorded progeny up to eight calf crops at 9 years of age. Bulls with FRT EPD in the top 25% (highlighted in green) sired daughters that on average produced over one more calf by 9 years of age as compared to the number of calves produced from daughters of sires in the bottom 25% for FRT EPD (highlighted in yellow). Additional validation of the FRT EPD is currently underway. Since the heritability of cow Fertility is lower as compared to other traits (h2= .11), the accuracy of FRT EPDs for non-parents is also typically lower.

“We’ve made more progress in the last 15 years than we made in the previous 113! My great, great grandfather homesteaded the ranch in 1892. For decades, we’ve implemented all kinds of programs – rotational grazing, contour farming, 45 miles of underground pipe, etc… but that was all just mechanical stuff. Those improvements don’t compare with our genetic progress driven by $Profit and Feed Efficiency”. ~ Chris Grubl Alkali Ranch Sturgis, SD The Grubl family have over 125 continuous years on their Grubl Alkali Ranch, east of Sturgis, SD.

Leachman Stabilizers –
An American Beef "Breed" Success Story • Built on Science: First designed in the 1970’s by USDA ARS scientists at the Meat Animal Research Center as the Marc II composite: ¼ Red Angus, ¼ Hereford, ¼ Simmental, ¼ Gelbvieh. • Privatized: A private herd was developed by Pat Vinton, Gordon, NE and later sold to the Tessari family in Babb, MT – thus becoming the foundation for the Leachman Stabilizer herd. • Modernized: From 1988 – 2003, Leachman modernized the Stabilizer composite: ▪ Reduced the birth weight. ▪ Made the cattle solid colored and polled. ▪ Increased the post weaning gain. ▪ Improved convenience traits including disposition and udder quality. ▪ Introduced black lines in addition to the original red lines. ▪ Injected top hybrid and purebred sires form the Angus, Simmental, and Gelbvieh breeds. • Moved to Colorado: In 2003, Leachman Cattle of Colorado was formed with a nucleus of cooperators that included the Tessari herd and several other Stabilizer cooperators. TM
• Selected with $Profit : LCoC began selecting the Stabilizer using $Profit with significant results: ▪ Dramatic further reduction in birth weight while increasing yearling growth. ▪ Significant improvement on marbling to now exceed average marbling Angus cattle. ▪ Substantial selection for reduced feed intake and improved feed efficiency. ▪ All of which coincided with a huge annual progress on $Profit. • Expanded Internationally: In 2016, Leachman offered genetic analysis services to Stabilizer breeders in the UK, New Zealand, and Australia. This expansion increased the total Stabilizer herd being selected for $Profit to over 20,000 breeding females. Genetics are now flowing to and from each of these herds – increasing the rate of global selection improvement. • Enhanced by DNA: In 2020, we partnered with Zoetis to build the largest, most accurate, composite DNA database in the world. This nearly doubles the accuracy of yearling EPDs, allowing even more rapid genetic improvement. • Today: The most scientifically advanced, well identified, composite gene pool in the world.
Excerpts from a 2001 letter written by Dr. Keith Gregory, Research Geneticist at U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC) to Jim Leachman: “Your contributions to beef cattle breeding are unmatched in the history of beef cattle breeding. No one has had a greater impact on beef cattle breeding on a global basis. I have stated on several occasions that no one is implementing more of the available beef cattle breeding technology than Leachman Cattle Company.” Dr. Keith Gregory Page 12

Is She a Good Cow?
A 1,250 lb. Top 1% $Ranch five-year-old Stabilizer cow calved at 23 months, has bred and calved in the first cycle four times with a 365 day calving interval, and has weaned an average of 698 lbs. per calf.
Most profit minded ranchers increasingly see the key to profitability as controlling costs while still increasing performance. For them, the key cow herd profitability factors are: • • • •
Moderating feed intake so you can run more cows on the same land. Improving longevity to reduce the costs of turnover and depreciation. Increasing fertility so that more cows bring in a calf every year. Adding hybrid vigor to increase pounds weaned per cow exposed.
Buying high growth, high carcass, purebred bulls that have been selected for maximum output will not build a low cost, high profit cowherd. • Leachman’s $Ranch index will move your herd in the right direction on all of these factors. • The $Profit index will help you improve your cows and make steers that earn premiums. • Using Leachman Stabilizers is the simplest crossbreeding strategy you can use: Retain 75% of the original F1 Hybrid vigor, while creating a uniform calf crop.

“I like the Leachman Stabilizer cattle. I make a living selling my forage through my cattle. Stabilizers offer me the possibility of ‘having my cake and eating it to’. They represent to me more than just pounds…such as the live production efficiency of those pounds…and the quality and value differentiating those pounds of meat. The Leachman’s $Profit number indicates the relative value added for all industry sectors… on the Ranch, in the Feedlot, and total value through to the packer. Simply, I want low birth weight calves that grow, heifers that breed, settle and make moderate, hardy, easy keeping cows…and steers that make Choice grade or better. That’s my ‘cake and eat it’ goal.”

Leachman Angus are Held to a High Standard!
At Leachman Cattle, we have an 85 year tradition of holding our Angus to a high standard! • A 3-generation legacy of master breeders in the Angus breed. • We have bred and/or owned many of the breed’s greatest sires:
Homeplace Eileenmere 995 35 Ankonian President
Ankonian Jingo 2 Emulation 31
Leachman Saugahatchee Bon View New Design 1407
Bon View New Design 878 Leachman New Standard
GAR-EGL Protégé TCA Visionary 158
• We have consistently been on the leading edge of genetic improvement in the Angus breed!
Today, Angus stands at a crossroads. The breed has clearly established itself as THE DOMINANT breed in the United States. However, many breeders are uncertain about the future direction of the breed. Here is where we see Angus in 10 years:
2. The breed must develop a prediction, like $Ranch, that will improve the maternal efficiency of Angus cows. 3. The breed must select for improved health – namely respiratory disease and heart failure. 4. The breed must select for improved feed efficiency – by actively measuring feed conversion on bulls.
BREED AVERAGE
1. The breed must reverse its current trend towards bigger, taller, higher intake females.
At Leachman Cattle, we don’t just talk the talk on profitability – we walk the walk!
Leachman bulls produce calves worth $135 more per head vs the average Angus bull! Page 20

Score 5 bulls are bulls you can walk up to and touch. but untested. Score 3 is about average historically for Leachman bulls. NH - Neuropathic Hydrocephalus However, we are making a concerted effort to improve AM - Arthrogryposis Multiplex disposition, so most bulls score 3 or higher.

EPDs are appropriate association needed *** Use on larger heifers with some assistance expected. EPDs without any adjustments. 12. Growth: This is a score from one star to five stars, where five stars means maximum growth. Even the one star bulls are as growthy as any bull in America 20 years ago. 13. Maternal: This is an estimate of maternal efficiency, NOT milk. It includes cow size, milk, fertility, and growth. The bulls are scored from one star to five stars. Five star bulls Page 28
18. Birth weight EPD/ABC expressed on an Angus scale (or breed scale for Red Angus, and Charolais). 19. Weaning weight EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale. 20. Yearling EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale. see video at www.leachman.com
21. Milk EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale. This is the best predictor of a bull’s daughter’s ability to milk. It measures the difference in weaning weight that will be produced between one bull’s daughters and another bull’s daughters due solely to milk. 22. IMF is the ultrasound based EPD/ABC for marbling expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale. 23. REA is the ultrasound based EPD/ABC for ribeye area expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale.
33. PAP: PAP EPD. If there is a number in the brown box, this is the actual PAP score of the animal. If there is a circle around the score, this indicates that the score was collected above 8500 ft in Walden CO. Key to bull comments: • Any reference to % rank is the percentile rank within that bull’s breed. Top 1% means the animal ranks better than 99% of the population on that trait. • Reference to the number rank (i.e. #2 $Profit) is the bulls rank within his breed within the sale bulls for that trait. So, #4 F:G ST means the 4th best Feed:Gain Stabilizer bull in the sale.

28. SC is an EPD, expressed in centimeters, predicting the yearling scrotal circumference of a sire’s progeny, compared to that of other sires.
29. $Ranch EPD: This Leachman profit index that predicts weaning profitability based on calving ease, weaning weight, maternal milk, cow cost, and FERTILITY. Based on producing 100 calves. This EPD assumes a slide on calf prices of $10 / cwt. 30. $Feeder: This number is expressed in terms of the bull’s added value to the sale price of your feeder calves. It is expressed in dollars per head. Thus when comparing a +100 bull vs. a +50 bull, we expect the first bull to sire calves worth $50 per head more at weaning (regardless of their weight). 31. $Profit™ EPD: One, simple, proven number that gives each trait a weight according to its impact on profit. 32. FT: Indicates the bull was individually measured for feed intake. Bulls without this notation, were not individually measured. Unmeasured bulls have EPD’s based on their parental average.

• Other abbreviations used in the comments include: • Dam 5@101 NR – indicates that the bull’s dam has five calves with an average weaning ratio of 101 • WR & NR = weaning or nursing ratio. How the calf ranked within herd on their adjusted weaning weight. • YR = yearling ratio. How the calf ranked within herd on adjusted yearling weight. • AWW = adjusted 205 day weaning weight. AYW = adjusted 365 day yearling weight. • REA & IMF = either adjusted data or ratios for ultrasound ribeye area and inter-muscular fat (marbling). • ADG = average daily gain on test. WDA = weight per day of age at a year. • Stay = the Red Angus EPD for Stayability. This predicts the likelihood that a bull’s daughters stay in the herd. +14 means that 14% more of this bull’s daughters will be in the herd at age 6. Page 29

Are all small cows really efficient? There seems to be a big disconnect in today’s beef industry. On sale day we want heavy, high quality steers to pay the bills. The rest of the time we want efficient cows to keep our costs as low as possible. Simply selecting for smaller cows with no regard for feed efficiency is not the answer. Likewise, selecting for shear growth with disregard for cost is just as poor of a strategy. The best way to make your cowherd truly efficient, and your calf crop earn more, is to use Leachman $Profit™. This is the only index in the industry that works on both sides of the ledger (production AND cost). Cows that work! Steers that pay! How $Profit works:
What traits are included in $Profit:
Our simulation model then factors in all of the effects on both income and expense to come up with a net profit figure for each bull. $Profit allows you to compare any two bulls and calculate the difference in profit that they are expected to generate in your herd. Let’s compare a $10,000 $Profit bull to $6,000 $Profit bull (the average 2008 born Angus bull). The predicted difference between the bulls is $4,000 or about $40 per calf. $Profit works for us and it will work for you too.
Some traits are not so easily characterized for $Profit. Milk, for example, is a good thing until you get too much. When over +25, milk EPD has a more negative effect on fertility than it has a positive effect on weaning weight. There are a few traits not yet included in $Profit: longevity, structure, and disposition. These traits are important but difficult to express in dollars.
$Profit assumes that the average commercial bull will have 100 progeny over its lifetime. The model assumes that you keep 30% of your heifers as replacements and that you retain ownership on the remainder of the calves through finishing and sell on a grid. We realize that many don’t retain ownership, but doesn’t it make the most sense to select from birth all the way to slaughter? Feedlots have already proven their willingness to pay premiums for superior Leachman sired calves.
$Profit includes nearly every trait that impacts profitability. The effect of most traits on profit is fairly simple to understand. Here is the list of what is included and its effect: Revenue Traits ▪ Calving ease = more calves ▪ Weaning and yearling EPD = more weight ▪ Fertility (days to conception) = more weight and more calves ▪ Carcass weight = worth more up to 1050 lbs. ▪ Marbling = valued based on grid premiums ▪ Ribeye area = value as impacts yield grade ▪ % Retail Product = more yield is more meat Cost Traits ▪ Cow mature size = in general bigger eats more ▪ Cow intake = more intake costs more ▪ Feedlot feed efficiency = cost of gain
Star System Explained:
Calving Ease: The predicted calving ease if you use the bull on heifers. The easiest calving bulls in the industry. Use on smaller heifers with minimal assistance needed. Use on larger heifers with some assistance expected. (If no stars are shown, the animal is recommended for use on cows only.)

Growth: A formula combines WW and YW to predict how much performance the sire will pass on to their progeny. Most growth. Maternal: An estimate of the maternal efficiency of the daughters this sire will produce. It includes cow size, milk, fertility and growth. Keep these heifers! They will make the most profitable females in the business. Feed/Carc: A formula that combines: gain, conversion, carcass weight and carcass merit to predict post weaning performance. Maximum overall value in your feeder calves. Disposition: An observation of the sires disposition. You can walk up to and touch. Average - respects flight zones and handles well, but is not a pet.

$Profit: Puts it all together. $Ranch + $Feeder. • One number that predicts your bottom line! Feed:Gain: Difference in the amount of feed a
bull's progeny will consume to produce one pound of gain.
Example: A -0.50 F:G EPD means this animal's progeny will consume 1/2 pound less feed per pound of gain than would progeny of a 0.00 F:G EPD sire.
Feed Intake: Difference in feed consumption of each of a bull's progeny in a 112 day feeding period.

Across Breed Comparisons
Dare to compare: You cannot afford to make mistakes in your breeding program! Choosing to use sires with incomplete or low value data can unknowingly make your herd less profitable – same work, same cost, poor results - unacceptable. Leachman ABC’s are the most reliable and comprehensive EPD’s in the industry. They are backed by a large (nearly a million), long-standing (over 30 years), multi-breed (over 15 breeds) database. Using this system assures you of making sound breeding decisions with minimal risk of failure.

Generations of breeding decisions have laid the foundation for your herd. Now you can continue—and improve— that legacy with INHERIT Select,™ a genomic tool to help cow-calf producers with crossbred cattle make more informed selection and breeding decisions. INHERIT Select provides the industry with Genomic Expected Progeny Differences (GEPDs) for 16 traits that inform three economic indexes which simplify complex information to make better management decisions easier.
THE VALUE OF MORE INFORMED DECISIONS A replacement can take about 4 years to break even.1 Identifying females that produce more valuable calves can add value long term. With GEPDs and indexes provided by INHERIT Select, you can make earlier and better selection decisions to identify future replacements. Selecting the right replacements is critical to the future of your herd, and has a direct impact on short-term profitability.

What are herds seeing from the data? •
The test tells you WHERE YOU RANK within the industry on all of the key traits including $Profit and $Ranch.
In the typical herd, we see a range of approximately $10,000 between the top 10% of the females and the bottom 10% of the females on $Profit. On $Ranch, the top 10% of the females are typically $50 lower than the top 10% of the females. • The test helps you identify females that you may NOT want to keep as replacements. For example, you might want to consider culling heifer calves for the following reasons: • Too little growth rate. • Too much or too little milk for your environment. • Too much potential mature cow size. • Poor future udder quality. • Poor docility. • Poor feedlot and carcass traits. • Excessive feed requirements. Seeing this information on replacement heifers that you have already chosen is particularly eye opening. Once they see the data, most ranchers want this information to help pick future heifers. • Finally, and perhaps most importantly, by testing you can accelerate your herd’s rate of genetic improvement.
What you should do next? • Take samples on 30 to 50 (or the entire group) of heifers that you plan to breed this Spring. This will tell you where you are and tell you what you could improve on the heifers you plan to breed. • Plan to take samples on your 2021 Spring born heifer calves. Ideally, you should sample two heifers for every one you plan to keep – this will give you optimal selection pressure to eliminate heifers with undesirable traits AND improve your index values for $Ranch and $Profit.
