Lyle and Pam kick off this year’s catalog with another set of strong bulls, featuring fall-born polled bulls in lots 1-3. The added age of these bulls is certain to enhance their value, as they are well-equipped to handle the extra workload. Notably, Langer’s emphasis on low birth weights is evident in this set of performance bulls, showcasing remarkable sogginess. Completing this solid group of bulls, is a soft-sided and exceptionally stout Polled Super Duty son. Diamond B, represented by Barry and Cindy, leads with three powerful Pillar sons, known as true highlight power bulls in recent years. These bulls are sure to tip the scale! Additionally, the group includes five Guerrero sons, with a striking homo-polled bull deserving of a serious look. Diamond B consistently presents a heavyweight set of bulls worth exploring. KZ Simmentals presents its strongest set of bulls to date, featuring six black bulls with diverse genetics in a uniform package. These long-bodied, thick-made bulls with substantial frames are followed by an exciting Epic son, boasting a 74 lb birth weight and offering great potential as a heifer bull prospect.

With our AI program being so successful the year we purchased him he got used for cleanup and leaned heavy on heifers. We used Hawk a lot for our fall program and will have some very special bull calves out of him at next year’s sale. Splash is dark cherry red with big goggles, moderate framed, deep bodied and good to work with. His pedigree offers proven genetics and a little outcross on the bottom side. His dam is a beautiful moderate framed cow with a perfect udder and good feet. A good mix of calving ease and growth in this stylish package.

He has a really nice hair coat and probably the pet of the pen this year. His dam is a dark red moderate framed young cow that did an outstanding job raising this guy. We think Archer will sire a really nice pen of steers and heifers you will want to hang on to.

We are trying to attain bull calves that are easy calving and still have good growth. Which has been easy with these two sires. All bulls have been given Enforce 3 and Bova Shield Gold and 8 way.

Out of the sire I thought we paid too much for but has proved to be be pretty cheap after we seen what he does with his calves. This bull will put the pounds on your calves without losing calving ease. He has gained 4.3 lbs. per day since he was born.

KZ SIMMENTALS Welcome to the 6th annual Next Step Bull sale. First, I would like to thank all my past buyers for their support. I’m excited about the seven head I am bringing to town this year. My belief in the cattle industry is to raise cattle that come out with ease and have lots of growth, because we get paid by the pound. I run 40 registered purebred Simmentals and a few commercial cows. When choosing my bulls, I cull extremely hard for disposition, feet, structure, and muscle. I hope to see you March 7, 2024 at the Thorsby Stockyards. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to call anytime or feel free to stop in.

He has a little extra frame while still maintaining good depth and excellent muscling with a good hair coat. Caliber is making his mark in the Simmental industry, and this calf is an excellent example of why. His dam has been a no miss cow with brothers working for Dar-Rox farms, Ted Commandeur and Marvin Branden that are all great commercial cattlemen.

Homo Polled, Parent Verified, Hetero Black This is an embryo calf off the famous Springcreek Brooke 68Z cow. He has been very impressive since birth, being at the top of the pack the entire way. Very thick topped, deep muscled, excellent hair with a great disposition. I have a full sister in my replacement pen also that ranks at the top. With this maternally stacked pedigree, and half brothers and sisters topping many purebred sales, this should be a no miss bull.

Homo Black, Homo Polled If you’re looking for a bull to throw some black baldies, this is the bull for you. He has good muscling, thick top, and an awesome set of feet. I purchased his dam from the Springcreek dispersal as one of my top picks out of the sale, and she did not disappoint on her first calf.

Homo Polled, Hetero Black Here, in my opinion, is a true power bull. If you’re wanting to add some extra pounds to your calves in the fall, this bull should do it. He is a true meat machine with a long body, and excellent hair coat. His dam is a big bodied power cow, who is heavy milking and good footed. With an added bonus, you would want to keep his females to add to your herd.

Homo Polled, Dilutor Free KZ Epic 124L is a calving ease bull that I would be comfortable using in my heifer pen. He is small headed, smooth made with good muscling and growth. I have used Epic for several years in the heifer pen and yet to help one. The females are also broody and heavy milking. His dam and granddam both have small birth weight calves and beautiful udders.

NOLARA FARMS Welcome to the 6th Annual Next Step Bull Sale. The cattle market in 2023 was stupendous and we are hoping for another strong year for everyone. Certainly, the Simmental sales have been strong, and commercial sales were also strong last year. We took the opportunity of the high prices and have slightly downsized our herd in preparation of semi-retirement. We say semi as it is doubtful we will ever NOT have a cow on the place! Thank-you to all of our previous buyers in support of our breeding program. We strive for good temperament, good feet, and strong maternal traits in the dams. There is once again a variety of genetics on offer and we hope you are able to choose one to fit your needs. We invite you to preview the bulls in person at Sara and Ryan’s farm near Rimbey, or look for the videos online on Transcon or Nolara Farms Facebook page. Call Sara at 780-305-6855 for a drop in visit. Hope to see you on sale day in Thorsby!

24 POLLED, NON DILUTOR The Loyalist is our favorite fullblood of the pen, so it’s only fitting that he starts our offering. The Loyalist is as dark red as they come with goggles on both eyes, and displays a quiet demeanor. His dam, Dallas 369C, is a good uddered Anchor D cow we purchased several years back. His sire, Southseven Polled Investor, is one of our senior herd sires. 2022 breeding season was the first year we used him on the purebred herd, previously he had run on our commercial herd. The Loyalist is short marked, deep sided, and long bodied with a good hind quarter, all in a complete and polled package!

We sold a maternal brother to Limelight last year in this sale to Ron Walton. Limelight’s dam is a Barbossa granddaughter that has a good udder and stands on four solid feet.

The Ledger is a red, double goggled, super quiet bull all in a polled package. The Ledger’s dam is an easy fleshing, quiet cow with a good udder and feet. 45L is a smooth made, long bodied bull with good width of chest. All around a very well balanced, structurally correct bull. As an added bonus, Ledger is halter broke; we showed him at FarmFair this fall. He placed in the middle of a very competitive class.

CENTURY SIMMENTALS Welcome to the sixth edition of the Next Step Sale. Thank you for the continued support of everyone that buys and bids on our bulls. This year’s group is our most consistent set of bulls yet. The Influence of some of the first heifers I purchased from South Seven Farms are really paying dividends as those heifers account for 6 out of the 9 bulls. The red division goes back to one of the most consistent red cows at South Seven in STU 5Z, her 2 daughters 41E and 44G carry on that legacy as 41E put a son in the sale and 44G has 2 grandsons in this year’s sale group. I can’t say enough about the vigor in this cow family, every year 41E and 44G calves are up right away sucking! No messing around! This trait is displayed by their sons as well. We calved out 41E and 44G sons, calves come out easy, get up suck right away and grow. What more could you want! Bulls are either out of A.I. sires or bulls I have raised. I am confident in the bulls we raise. We are always improving the herd through culling and purchasing new females, embryos and semen to improve and add genetic diversity. Major emphasis put on growth, maternal and docility. Cattle with length and growth are important for raising those valuable heavy weight steers in fall. I raise cattle where growth has to come from milk and natural ability, bulls are raised to weaning without creep just mama’s milk and grass. This gives you the buyer a more accurate idea of what to expect, not skewed by supplemental feed. Length on an animal is there right at birth so while the long spined calves will add more birthweight that if built right long and not a block that doesn’t mean hard calving. When it comes time to sell those long calves with natural growing ability, they may weigh an extra 50-100lbs @ $3/lb it sure adds up! More pounds = more profit! Bulls are fed tmr cereal silage with a ration pellet. Bulls are on full herd health program recommended by the extremely knowledgeable vets at Leduc Farm Animal Hospital. At birth calves are given Bovilis Nasalgen 3PMH and Vitaferst, spring Vista once SQ and Vision 8 Somnus. Fall post weaning Triangle HB 10, Vision 8 Somnus, solomectin pour on.

HETER POLLED - NON DILUTOR Kodiak is a tanky bull with a ton of middle that is carried out front to back, a very complete red bull. I purchased some semen on his sire Southern Comfort to try out on a couple cows, with sons like this I’ll be using more. Kodiak’s mother STU 41E a very good footed Westcott daughter with an excellent udder, square hip and wide back end is a no miss cow, with two daughters in the herd and sons working at Dercam farms and Tilma Dariy. Exceptional vigor in this cow family calves are up right away and sucking. There generations of consistency in Kodiaks linage, his grandam 5Z was also a no miss cow for South Seven with EVERYONE of her calves being retained or sold for breeding stock, with two daughters here at Century STU 41E and STU 44G.

Flushmates

Dark Red, impressive depth balanced by lots of length of spine complimented by natural muscling ability, these 3 brothers are exactly what I envisioned flushing Miss Top 46 to Electric Avenue. Electric Avenue Is a big time herdbull for Beechinor Land and Livestock known for exceptional feet, while siring dark red heavy muscled calves. Their mother Miss Top 46C was the first registered heifer I purchased at the Camrose Classic coming from South Seven Farms, Rob Stuart never intended on selling 46C but she made it into the sale. Rob might be regretting that decision now… but I’m sure not. Miss Top is named appropriately as she is one of our top cows. She is admired by visitors for her tremendous depth and easy fleshing ability. Her calves carry this easy fleshing ability as they are always among the heaviest at every stage. This year heaviest weaning and yearling weights were Miss Top x Electric Ave in both the bull and heifers. Miss Top is the granddam to the fourth annual next step high seller Century Hoover going to Virgina Ranch. Century Hammer a son that we retained as our herd bull but unfortunately had a career ending injury this spring. These Electric Avenues I feel have the potential to be Miss Tops strongest calves yet.

HORNED- NON DILUTOR A throwback to the old red white fullbloods. If you saw this bull and said to me I don’t like bulls with so much white. My response would be do you like bulls with muscle square hip and width like a table top? Cause that’s what Kevlar is built like. His Sire Magnum has put countless bulls through the ring for Beechinor Bros. and Beechinor Land and Livestock. Magnum is known for being heavily muscled, moderate with exceptional set of hooves, very good footed. Kevlar’s Dam 543G a productive moderate cow purchased from Anchor D Ranch. Her first bull sold to Joe Howlett, working well there.

So far the Cavill calves we’ve had have been born unassisted. His dam BLL 66H comes from a very productive cow in the Beechinor Land and Livestock herd, consistently raising bulls and heifers that sold for breeding.

His sire Jace was a bull we raised and was an easy pick for Darren Frank to add to the Dercam bull battery, we were fortunate to keep using him as well. Jace is a bull that always stood out to me at every stage and even more impressive Jace’s mother STU 44G did it as a heifer. Kannon goes back to Circle G Cash which offers a nice shot of calving ease to complement some power on the maternal side going back to Crocket. His mother 33B a moderate black cow was productive at South Holden before we picked her up at their dispersal. 33B always produces a heavy weight calf in the fall. Maternal brother working at Circle Z Simmentals-Daniel Ziehr

HOMO POLLED - NON DILUTOR Another Jace son, we’ve been very impressed by the amount of hair, dark color, growth and calving ease Jace adds to his calves. This was his first calf crop, we’re pleased with the calves both here at Century and Dercam Farms. Lynchburg has tremendous length, narrow head smooth shoulders that makes for easy calving with moderate 83lb birthweight with the ability for impressive growth posting a 844lb weaning weight just on mamas milk and grass no creep. His mother 4G is a heifer bull producer with a CE EPD of 15 and a 75lb BW moderate tanky little cow, which paired perfectly mated with Jace who offers a little more frame. Maternal brother working for Dennis and Stuart Burger as their heifer bull. With a CE EPD of 14.8 Lynchburg calves should come out easy yet offer that curvebending growth.

HETERO POLLED - NON DILUTOR A smooth made bull, narrow head and front shoulder long spine thick butt and a big set of nuts! Lawson offers a nice blend of calving ease while still achieving desired growth. His sire CENT 22J was a late born FEB 28 so we kept as a yearling as we needed another bull for our commercial herd. Despite his young age an excellent breeder in his group of about 15 cows as to not overwork him. Very pleased with the growth on his calves. He is now working at Dittmer Farms and doing a great job there. Maternal brother to our high selling bull last year going to Huber Simmental Ranch in North Dakota.

RDG SIMMENTALS Welcome to the 6th annual Next Step Bull Sale. Once again thank you to all the previous bidders and buyers, your support is greatly appreciated. Also thank you to Glen and the Transcon team along with the rest of the sales crew and to Thorsby Stockyards for hosting. As we look back on 2023 with droughts and fires, it was positive to see the cattle market finish strong. As I write this, Western Canadian slaughter cattle have hit an all time high in carcass weights. With lower cow herd numbers, packers want bigger animals with more hanging weight and for feedlots to efficiently do this, this is where we are going to see more demand for genetics with some size and frame. I feel this is something we continue to work towards within our own breeding program. If there are any bulls in our offering that you feel can benefit your program, please feel free to contact us for any more information. If you are unable to see the bulls come sale day or beforehand, please don’t hesitate to contact any of the Transcon members for an unbiased evaluation.

NON DILUTOR Without a doubt the best one of our pen of bulls. He is hard to fault, the kind I wish we had a whole group of. I can’t say enough about the Big Rig bull and the muscle and performance he throws in his offspring. We are in the business of getting paid on pounds and this is the bull that will do it, a straight up beef bull. Loaded with muscle and volume. Take a look and I think you will agree.

I really like the structure of the bull. He has a ton of depth, a great hair coat and solid foot under him. Off a first calf heifer who did a good job on her first crack and bred back to calve on the first cycle. Here is a buyers opportunity. Could be the right type to use on your black and red cows to make those baldie calves that always in demand.

SCURRED POLLED, 100% FULL FLECKVIEH Klansmen is another good son of Rugged R Bordeaux! In my Opinion Bordeaux is definitely the best and most consistent bull we have ever used. It doesn`t make a difference whether they are male or female they are just plain good. Easy and free moving, great feet and legs, long, deep well muscled! GOOD!! If you want to find a fault with Klansmen it`ll be his tail. Unfortunately his tail was stepped on when he was born and he lost part of it but I`m Sure it won`t affect his breeding ability

POLLED, 100% FULL FLECKVIEH Kingston 23K is another good son of Bordeaux going back a great pedigree on his dams side who we purchased from the awesome Bonchuck Family. Yes I know I`m starting to sound like a broken record but here goes. He`s on a set of great feet and legs, long thick and well muscled. Red, lots of eye pigment and smooth polled!

TERMS AND CONDITIONS TERMS - The terms of the sale are cash, cheque, e-transfer, or wire and are due at the time of sale, unless other arrangements have been made between buyer and seller prior to the sale. Transcon reserves the right to charge interest at a rate of 2% per month on overdue accounts. The right of property shall not pass until after settlement is made. Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves the right to require a certified cheque as settlement before releasing any sale cattle. Should any purchaser fail to settle for their purchase Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves full power to resell the animal to the best advantage either publicly or privately, without further notice. Any loss arising from such resale together with keep and all other expenses shall be payable by the defaulter. All settlements must be made with the clerks of the sale before any cattle will be released. Transcon Livestock Corp and/or the Auctioneer shall have the right to refuse bids from anyone who has a previous record of default in payment or who has not made proper credit clearance prior to the sale with the owner or Sale Managers. BID - No private sales will be allowed except as otherwise provided for in the terms and conditions. No by-bidding will be permitted. SALES TAXES – Applicable sales taxes will be charged on semen, embryos, and trucking fees (if listed), respective to the home province of the buyer, not the seller. DISPUTES - In cases of disputes, bidding will be reopened between the parties involved. If no further bid is made the buyer will be the person from whom the auctioneer accepted the last bid. The auctioneer’s decision in such matters will be final. PURCHASER’S RISK - Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold. Animals will be cared for at the purchaser’s risk for a reasonable length of time. INSURANCE – Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser at the time of sale and should be insured. Animals returning to the seller’s farm must be insured. US BUYERS – There is an additional charge (approximately $300.00 US dollars) that will be applied to each animal purchased. This covers documentation, vet inspections/testing required to export. This cost does not include transportation or brokerage which is the responsibility of the buyer. CATTLE PICTURES AND INFORMATION PROVIDED - The images in this catalogue are believed to be accurate representations of the individual animals and the information contained in this catalogue is provided by the seller and believed to be true and accurate. Transcon Livestock Corp. and catalogue designers/ producers assume no responsibility if the images and/or information as received have been altered or is inaccurate. ANNOUNCEMENTS – All announcements from the auction block will take precedence over the printed matter in the catalogue. Buyers are therefore cautioned to pay attention to any such announcements. CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRY - A registration/recordation certificate issued by the applicable breed association and duly transferred will be furnished to the buyer of each animal after settlement has been made. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine the acceptance of this certificate in any other association. SHIPPING - Assistance will be given in making shipment after the sale but no risk is assumed by the Sales Management or Seller. Expenses incurred are the responsibility of the purchaser. Purchasers are requested to furnish shipping instructions when making settlement. BREEDERS GUARANTEE - As per applicable Canadian Breed Association Breeding Guarantee guidelines. Copies are available at the sale settlement desk to be picked up by the buyer at any time. In no event shall the seller be responsible for reimbursing more than the purchase price. EXCEPTION TO GUARANTEE - In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale, the guarantee shall be null and void. HEALTH - It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine health requirements for importing any animal into his province or state. Transcon Livestock Corp. assumes no responsibility for the health status of any animal in the sale. EMBRYO & SEMEN – Full settlement must be made before release is done and shipping arrangements should be done within 30 days of the sale unless arrangements made between buyer and seller prior to the sale. Shipping arrangements and costs are the expense of the purchaser once release has been given. ACCIDENTS - Although every precaution will be taken to protect the safety and comfort of buyers, neither the Sales Management, auctioneer, consignors, or Association assumes any responsibility in this matter and disclaims any liability legal or otherwise in the event of accident or loss of property. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS - The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between the buyer and the seller and be equally binding to both. Resale of animals following purchase in this sale shall constitute a separate transaction and the rights and obligations of the two parties connected thereto are not covered by the terms and conditions of this sale. TRANSCON LIVESTOCK CORP. IS AGENT ONLY - It is to be clearly understood that Transcon Livestock Corp. is only acting as a medium between buyer and seller and is not in any way responsible for any failure on the part of either party to live up to his obligations. Neither does Transcon Livestock Corp. assume any financial obligations to collect or enforce collection of any monies between parties. Any legal action that may be taken, in exceptional cases, must be between buyer and seller.
