Welcome to the Herd Builder Speckle Park Top 10 Sale, held Thursday June 14th prior to the CSPA AGM right here in Ontario. 7 reputable & established Ontario breeders contribute their BEST Ontario prefix registered Speckle Park females. The agricultural climate in Ontario is unique and affects the way in which we raise Speckle Park stock: • Major field crops include corn, soybeans and alfalfa forage • There are approx. 19,000 beef farms and 4200 dairy farms • There are approx. 236,000 beef cows in Ontario • Prime Ag land values are currently between $25,000 - $35,000 an acre • Province has one of the highest costs of beef production with very little grazing land remaining • Province population is 14.28 million and growing at a rapid rate close to 6%/year There are currently 60 active Speckle Park breeders in Ontario (approximately); 50% are members of CSPA and breeding registered stock. Outside of Western Canada where the breed originated, Ontario is the most active Province, with regards to growth of the Speckle Park breed. Ontario producers have made significant investments in buying and transporting some of the best stock on offer in Western Canada. Ontario producers have made many trips to the west to tour herds and meet the great people behind the development of the Speckle Park breed. This has led to many great friendships as well as business partnerships. Today, Ontario breed/develop their own Speckle Park and are able to compete with some of the best in the breed. The quality from Ontario became evident on the big stage at Agribition 2017, where ON prefix cattle took home Junior Champion Bull and Junior Champion Female. At the 2017 National Agribition Sale, the high selling embryo Lot came off an ON-prefix bull. These are all things to be proud of, however, as a group of Ontario breeders we feel we can continue to improve and compete – even with much lower breed stocking rates/farm. We ask for continued support from our fellow breeders in Western Canada, as we make effort to expand our markets into Quebec, the East Coast and New York State. The Herd Builder Speckle Park Top 10 Sale, will be the first of its kind for the CSPA AGM. We hope this starts a tradition of a provincial sale held in conjunction with the annual CSPA AGM – a chance to showcase elite provincial stock and adds a direct commerce element to the AGM annually. This year’s sale is being hosted by Underhill SPECS in Alma, Ontario. The sale will be held in the back pasture complete with a swim pond, historic log cabin and lots of greenspace. Herd Builder Speckle Park Top 10 Sale, Alma Ontario - June 14th You’re ALL invited – see you in Ontario!

UNDERHILL SPECS
Underhill SPECS is not afraid to sell and market their best (as selected by YOU!). All calves will be on pasture, so a unique opportunity to see them with their dams and some of the sire options in a natural setting. Underhill SPECS would like to retain the option to show the calf selected this Fall, under the new ownership banner of the buyer. This will create a great profile for the new owner farm/ranch with the calf being shown in Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada in 2018. Calf does not need to be officially selected before the sale and bidding starts, but it must be selected before the buyer leaves the site the night of June 14th.

Our mandate at Underhill SPECS is to use the best bulls in the breed whether we breed them ourselves or another breeder does. We just can’t afford to sacrifice on bull power. Here is a chance to buy an exclusive embryo package on both the 2017 Agribition Junior Champion Bull and the 2017 Agribition Grand Champion Bull. All Out is still undefeated against any same age Speckle Park bull in Canada 2016/2017 and CNE went undefeated by any age Speckle Park bull in 2017. Both bulls are proven with strong progeny on the ground and these will be the first embryo packages to sell on either bull in the WORLD.

The female we selected to join these 2 bulls with is Watch Me 1E who can be viewed with All Out on sale day. She’s a modern 2017 model and was the 2017 Paris Fair Champion Heifer Calf. Watch Me comes from a mega maternal line and her Moo Fassa dam 26W is probably the only “untouchable” cow in our herd that will never be sold. Stack that with her maternal sire Codiak Big Mac and the relative offspring should be something very special. No further embryos on Watch Me will be offered in 2018 outside of this sale.
