SALE INFORMATION "PICK OF THE PEN" Sale Procedure All cattle will be uniformly grouped in pens of approximately 4-8 head per pen. The sale cattle will remain in the pens throughout the sale or until ready for loading out. The auction will be conducted inside the shop, but there is no sale ring and no cattle will be brought inside. Each pen will be assigned a very conservative opening bid. We will auction the cattle one pen at a time. In order to start the bidding on a pen, someone must offer the opening bid price and then we auction to the highest bidder, who then has the option of selecting which or however many they desire from that pen at the winning bid price. We continue this procedure until the pen is empty or no one wants the opening bid. If any animals remain unsold in a pen, then we "Pass the Pen" and any remaining animals are available at the "opening bid price" at the settlement table on a first come first serve basis. Any remaining animals will be priced based on quality. None will be priced below their opening bid price.

McDonald Farms Bull Management We believe that the natural resource of forages in this area is our greatest asset when it comes to livestock production. We strive to produce cattle that can utilize this resource to optimal levels. We also know that our end product must meet or exceed the expectations of all our customers, from the commercial cattle producer, the feedlot operators, the packers and our ultimate customer the consumer.

We have selected these cattle for calving ease, growth performance, milking ability, carcass quality, and calm disposition. They have been performance tested on forage rations in big pastures. We want to produce Decathloners and not a Sumo wrestler.

They have been tested to be BVD-PI free, AMF/NHF/CAF, and ultrasounded. They have passed Breeding Soundness Exams and Semen tests. They are stout strong Bulls ready to go to work.
