Don Johnson Angus 28th Annual Bull Sale by LivestockDirect

Monday March 4, 2024 | 6:30 pm Farmers & Ranchers, Salina, KS

Welcome,

The Don Johnson Angus Family would like to welcome you to our 28th Annual Bull Sale and thank you for reviewing the offering. As it has been in the past and continues to be, producing bulls to benefit the commercial cattlemen is the focus of the program. We strive to raise bulls to sire calves that are moderate in birthweight, perform from day one, and become recognized as some of the top feeder cattle when they hit the market. In addition, we continue to visually evaluate for soundness and eye appeal to guarantee consistency of our herd and our customers herds. As of this writing, cattlemen have had their challenges with mother nature once again. We’ve had our challenges as well. Last year with the drought, the younger cow/calf pairs were dry lotted in Nebraska. It was interesting to have twice a day evaluation of the cows and calves. Observation of feet in soft dirt, growth, body condition of cows, fertility were just a few things evaluated. Bull calves were hand fed a pound to two pounds of creep a day thus we removed the no creep from advertising. With that all aside, we continue our selection of well-balanced cattle that will grow for our customers, perform in the feedlot, and increase the quality and maternal value of their daughters. This year’s offering is another set of high quality, well balanced bulls. For most of our customers whom mainly market at weaning, we keep an eye on $W. Of the offering this year, 85% of the bulls fall within the top 25% of the breed for $W. When calving comes around, it’s important to get a lively calf that will get up and grow. We designate calvingease bulls for heifers with moderate birthweights that will not hinder calf survivability. And as it has been for years, emphasis is placed on selection of AI sires with breed average or above for the scrotal epd. In addition, foot structure has been a hot topic lately. The three new AI sires added this year all are in the top 25% of the breed for angle and claw epds. Sale bulls in the top 25% for claw and angle epds are recognized in the footnotes. Thank you again for your interest in our program. If we can assist you before the sale, please don’t hesitate to call Don or reach out to Linda via call, text or email. Additionally, we encourage you to follow us on social media at Don Johnson Angus to keep up to date with lot postings and sale information. We look forward to seeing you Monday, March 4th. Sincerely, Don Johnson, Dan & Linda Egger.

EPD TERMS Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database of the American Angus Association. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus.

$VALUE INDEXES $Value Indexes, reported in dollars per head, are multi-trait selection indexes where a higher value suggests more profit. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires if sires were randomly mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environment.

Calving Ease Direct (CED), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers.

Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences in progeny from conception to weaning by decreasing mature cow size and improving docility, foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights consistent with current production.

Birth Weight (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Weaning Weight (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Yearling Weight (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Scrotal Circumference (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires. Maternal Milk (Milk), is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability in his daughters compared to daughters of other sires. In other words, it is that part of a calf ’s weaning weight attributed to milk and mothering ability. Heifer Pregnancy (HP), is a selection tool to increase the probability or chance of a sire’s daughters becoming pregnant as first-calf heifers during a normal breeding season. A higher EPD is the more favorable direction and the EPD is reported in percentage units. Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters. It predicts the average ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of other sires. Docility (Doc), is expressed as a difference in yearling cattle temperament, with a higher value indicating more favorable docility. It predicts the average difference of progeny from a sire in comparison with another sire’s calves. In herds where temperament problems are not an issue, this expected difference would not be realized. Pulmonary arterial pressure EPD (PAP), is expressed in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg), with a lower EPD being more favorable indicating a sire should produce progeny with a lower PAP score. PAP score is an indicator of susceptibility to high altitude disease commonly experienced at elevations greater than 5,500 feet. Selection for this trait aims to improve the genetic potential for a sire’s progeny to have lower PAP scores thus a lower chance of contracting high altitude disease increasing the environmental adaptability of cattle living in mountain areas. Carcass Weight (CW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Marbling (Marb), is expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Ribeye Area (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Fat Thickness EPD (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in future progeny preweaning performance from birth to weaning. Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for postweaning feedlot merit (growth and feed efficiency) compared to progeny of other sires assuming producers retain ownership of cattle and sell on a carcass weight basis. Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, represents the expected average differences in the progeny postweaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires. This index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot phase, and market these animals on a qualitybased carcass grid. Combined Value ($C), an index expressed in dollars per head, includes all traits that make up both $M and $B with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and eventually sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.

Man in Black caught our eye for overall performance, added carcass merits, and outcross pedigree. His birth weight EPD has gone up since progeny has been reported, however, we had several first calf heifers bred to him and had no problem. Also, his calves are for the customer who feeds their own cattle. We will have more Man in Black calves next year.
