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 from 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.
• Selected with $ProfitTM : 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 GregoryIs 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.

– INTRODUCING –Leachman Beef Blends
• How does it work? We comb through the entire Leachman database and pick out the very best terminal bulls we can find, we match them up in like groups of four, collect them on the same day, blend the semen and proceed as if it were a sample from one bull.
• What exactly am I buying? A blend of the highest $Feeder, Homozygous Black, Homozygous polled, sires you can find in the industry. You are getting an average of these four elite sires.
• Why a four bull blend? The blended product has proven to increase conception rate. You will at least get the conception rate of the most fertile sire in the blend (which there are significant differences), and some suggest that sperm cell competition helps conception rate as well.
• How can I best utilize this product? We suggest sorting off your best, most maternal cows and using 5-Star maternal sire on them to make replacement heifers, and then use this on the rest of the herd to simply make more money!
• What does it cost? At only $12/unit, We are confident that you will not find this level of terminal merit at this value ANYWHERE!
• Only $12
• Higher Conception
• Most Elite $Feeder
This blend is specifically designed to make you more profit in the feed yard - Period!
This semen is only offered in 1/4cc straws and is not intended for use in heifers.

$Profit now re-focused for 2023 and beyond!
On December 12th, 2022, the Leachman $Profit system made one of the most significant Genetic Advancements in our Company’s history!
This unprecedented change was driven by new technology, better data, and changing markets. The primary drivers of the changes were as follows:
1. Leachman incorporated the Zoetis Fertility EPD into $Ranch and $Profit. The EPD predicts large differences in the calf crop percentage expected from a bull’s daughters!
• The Zoetis Fertility EPD was launched in May of 2021.
• After extensive investigation, Leachman believes that this EPD is the single best predictor of a cow’s lifetime productivity.
• Model analysis demonstrates that the number of calves produced in a cow’s lifetime is DIRECTLY related to that female’s probable annual calf crop percentage weaned.
• Higher Fertility EPD bulls produce daughters that will wean a higher average annual calf crop percentage weaned.
• These calf crop percentage differences drive HUGE differences in profitability.
• High Fertility EPD bulls will build cowherds with consistently better breed back, higher calf crop percentage weaned, less culling requirements, and reduced replacement rates.
Percent Calf Crop Weaned vs Fertility EPD
2. Zoetis and Leachman launch the industry’s most accurate, multi-breed carcass evaluation!
• The $Profit database combines thousands of carcass data records, tens of thousands of ultrasound records, and over 75,000 DNA records to produce the most accurate carcass data predictions.
3. 2022 markets showed a record Choice/Select spread and a record Choice/Prime spread that make marbling more valuable than ever!
These modifications have significantly changed the expected $Ranch, $Feeder, and $Profit for animals in the Leachman $Profit database.
• Selection for $RANCH will build the most fertile and efficient cows.
• Selection for $FEEDER will build steers that efficiently gain and reach Prime marbling.
• Selection for $PROFIT will create the industries leading cowherds for fertility, efficiency, marbling, and profitability.
Our cows bred up 94% and our 2-year-olds bred up 90% – all in a year with 3" less than normal rain. Plus, our calves weaned 30 pounds heavier.
We’ve been using high $Ranch and high Fertility Leachman Stabilizer bulls – over 700 bulls since 2008. Our cows are getting better and our calves are improving in the feedlot.”
Shane Cox, Seifert Division Manager IX Ranch, Big Sandy, MT“It’s all working…
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:
$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.
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.
What traits are included in $Profit:
$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
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
Star System Explained:
Accuracy: The sire’s level of accuracy is determined by the number of progeny that have been evaluated in the Leachman System.
Several progeny recorded, use with confidence (over 90% accurate).
Pedigree and individual data only (about 30% accurate).
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.)

Maternal: An estimate of the maternal efficiency of the daughters this sire will produce. It includes cow size, milk, udder quality, fertility/longevity, growth, feed efficiency/intake and calving ease.
Keep these heifers! They will make the most profitable females in the business.
Feedlot: A formula that combines: gain, conversion, carcass weight and carcass merit to predict post weaning performance.
Maximum overall value in your feeder calves.
Udder: An estimate of the daughter’s udder quality.
Thumb size teats and tight bag suspension.
Fertility: An estimate of the amount of calves the daughters will have in their lifetime. Will produce about 2 more calves in their life time than 1-Star fertility.
Disposition: An observation of the sires disposition.
Average - respects flight zones and handles well, but is not a pet.
Leachman financial indexes allow you to HAVE IT ALL !
$Ranch: Profit from birth through weaning. Includes:
• Fertility, Milk, Growth
• Cow feed intake and mature size
$Feeder: Profit from weaning to harvest. Includes:
• Feed conversion
• Carcass value
• Carcass weight
$ Indexes Explained:
$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.
Example: A steer whose sire has a -100 Intake EPD will eat 100 pounds less feed in 112 days than one whose sire had a zero Intake EPD.

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.

Leachman Cattle of Colorado is Committed to Helping Ranchers Reduce Losses from Brisket Disease.
We know from our own cowherds that losing calves to brisket at any time from birth through yearling stage can have significant financial cost. We are convinced that pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) scores are very strong predictors of whether or not animals will have the disease. For this reason, we have collected over 6,278 PAP scores on cattle in our program.
Unfortunately, taking measurements will not solve the problem. Most ranchers know that buying PAP tested bulls reduces the problems with brisket, but most still report losing 3% - 8% of their calves to brisket depending on the year. This level of calf loss is still unacceptable!
We believe that the best strategy to reduce brisket disease is to use genomically enhanced expected progeny differences (EPDs) for PAP. Think of selecting for low birth weight. Just buying bulls under 80 pounds would help calving ease, but using low birth weight EPD bulls is a much more effective strategy. This is true, because an EPD takes into account much more information. For example, buying a 75 lb. BW bull out of a sire that generally sires very heavy calves is far less likely to be easy calving than is a similar BW bull out of a sire that generally sires light calves. The same is the case with PAP.
Our PAP EPD closely relates to the actual PAP score of the bulls as shown in the graph below. The correlation between the PAP scores and the PAP EPDs are 85%. This is typical in a trait like PAP that is 30% heritable. However, as with all EPDs, you can see that some bulls score better or worse on the EPDs than on the actual score. Ranchers concerned with PAP scores should use the EPDs – not the actual PAP scores.
Key points to regarding PAP and PAP EPDs:
• We have taken 6,278 PAP scores (all by Dr. Tim Holt).
• PAP is 30% heritable.
• The PAP EPDs reported were calculated by Zoetis. They include information related to the genomics of the bulls. This increases the accuracy of the prediction, even without a PAP test.
• Selecting bulls using the PAP EPD is FAR more accurate than simply using the PAP scores.
• Herds that have significant brisket disease should use the lowest PAP EPD bulls.

• We have consistently been on the leading edge of gene c 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
1. The breed must reverse its current trend towards bigger, taller, higher intake females.
2. The breed must develop a predic on, like $Ranch and Fer lity, 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 ac vely measuring feed conversion on bulls.
