Dear Friends,
In this year’s California Bull Sale, we have assembled superior genetics that have been produced by ranchers for ranchers . This means three things:
1. We value productivity and adaptability in our genetic selections. We take pride in the quality cattle that we raise, but they are selected first and foremost to perform in difficult terrain and harsh weather We breed cattle that we trust to brave our winters, conquer our rugged conditions, and thrive on sparse grass during our droughts In short, these are cattle we would want to graze our own pastures
2. We consistently select for low animal inputs and impressive value creation. The genetics of the cattle in this sale were painstakingly selected to ensure that, above all else, they will make your operation more profitable. From breed-leading feed efficiency, unmatched fertility, and great mothering instincts, our cattle help make your job easier by requiring less—less inputs, less effort, and less attention
3. We are deeply aware of the unique challenges cattle producers face from the 70+ years of being a family-owned operation. Customer service is our main priority Over the past decades, we have matched producers with cattle that complement their operations Our customers are regularly checked on, whether it be a call to see how the cattle are performing, or a ranch visit to learn more about their operation. We are confident you will see the value of our genetics, our lifelong commitment to our customers, and our dedication to the beef industry
Mark you calendars for September 24th and join us at Cattleman’s Livestock Market in Galt, CA There has been no better time to improve your herd and take advantage of the current market demand for superior beef genetics than now We look forward to welcoming you and assisting you in selecting the perfect genetics for your operation .
Sincerely,
The Thomas Angus Ranch Family

“Our family has been buying bulls from Thomas Angus for over 5 years. We focus heavily on maternal, docility, and carcass genetics. 70% of our operation is on publicly managed ground. People hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian riders are going through our cattle daily. Thomas Angus bulls have proved to be very easy to get along with when turning out for breeding, gathering in horseback, loading in trailers, and while working on foot in the hay bunks. This includes everything from a newly purchased yearling bull up to a 5 year old bull. Our terrain can be rough, we look at and monitor how many years a bull can physically stay in our program. Thomas Angus has proven this for our operation.”
