Bell M Farms
The Moellenbeck’s, Englefeld SK
Building Better Beef is what this industry is all about. Here at Bell M Farms, only 20% of our bull calves are retained as bulls. They are selected on size, quality, feet, legs, testicles, color and disposition. These bulls are grown out on a high roughage (straw), grain and a 32% beef supplement mixture along with a limited amount of hay. Remember grown out, not fattened. These bulls will be able to serve a large number of females for you to help Build Better Beef. As with all the bulls born at Bell M Farms #1 you have to be born unassisted to make the first hurdle to keep your nuts. Then we start looking at birth weight (they get weighed with a scale. No tape or eyeballing) structure, horns, color, performance, disposition, etc.
We have also taken the approach of ‘if you can measure it, record it‘. This is all in an attempt to provide you, our customer, the most information possible. We do things like wieghing the cowherd, it’s an interesting task as we are often asked ‘what size is their mother’. Studies show a cow should easily have a calf 7% of their body weight. Thus, a 1500 lb cow should be able to deliver a 105 lb calf. We are more concerned about calving ease than birthweight. Our cows are also udder scored and recorded to the CSA Registry.
Every bull in this years offering we feel could be a herdsire here at Bell M Farms, we don’t expect to sell you a bull if we would not feel comfortable using ourselves, yes this cuts down on quantity but skyrockets the highest quality of Shorthorn Bulls you will find in Canada. We retain an in herd semen use on all bulls at our expense and the buyers convience.

Muridale Shorthorns
The Muri’s, Swift Current, SK
Muridale Shorthorns is located south east of Swift Current, Saskatchewan near a community called Hallonquist. The Muri farm was homesteaded in 1910 and started registering their Shorthorn cattle in 1927. The fifth generation is actively involved in the selection of genetics from proven cow lines that have been part of Muridale Shorthorns from the beginning and develop cattle to fit into today’s needs. We run approximately 188 Purebred Shorthorns and 150 commercial cows. Our commercial cows are mostly Shorthorn cross. We raise our Shorthorns to work in cow calf operations that are commercial cattle oriented. We recognize the value the Shorthorn breed can offer to the beef industry, and the desirable traits that are needed to be selected for that work in our environment: calving ease, wean a heavy calf, no udder problems, and mature to a moderate weight. Our bulls that we developed are selected for these quality traits, and selected from a cow herd that’s easy fleshing, moderate frame, just good functional cows. The bulls we are offering in the Who’s Your Daddy Sale are genotyped and tested free for myostatin unless noted. We stand 100% behind our cattle, we believe in keeping our customers happy. Muridale Shorthorns reserves the right to collect semen for in herd use off any of their bulls in the sale at their expense and the buyers convenience.

This cross has really clicked producing the high seller in the Muridale Heritage sale this past fall. With other maternal siblings including Muridale Phantom 10F who is having great success with Semex and ACC, Muridale History
5H who topped the sale last year. The guess work is done all you need to do is back up the trailer and take them home. We used 5j on a group of black cows last year.

Saskvalley Stock Farm
The Lehmann’s, Rosthern, SK
Once again, we are bringing you a group of bulls that have been bred to perform on grass in the summer and a moderate growing ration in the winter. These bulls have never been pushed for maximum gain. As calves they ate only grass and their mother’s milk, NO CREEP. After weaning in December they were brought up slowly to a grower ration designed with an energy level of 50 Mcal/cwt NEgain (For frame of reference, we feed our heifer calves a ration that has an energy level of 40 Mcal/cwt NEgain and expect them to gain 1.75 pounds per day. Most feedlots in western Canada feed a fattening ration that is 60 Mcal/cwt NEgain). They were turned out onto grass in May. During the summer as yearlings, while grazing grass, they received only salt and mineral supplementation. They did not receive any protein or energy supplements. In November they were slowly brought up to a ration with an energy level of 50 Mcal/cwt Negain. We are trying to breed cattle that can survive and reproduce with a minimum of labor and feed. 2 years ago we started testing our yearling bulls for individual feed efficiency and residual feed intake (RFI). Researchers have proved feed efficiency to be moderately heritable. In the first year the bull that ate the least amount of feed ate 30% less feed every day than the pen average. In this year’s group the bull that ate the least amount of feed ate 21% less feed every day than the pen average. Think about how much it costs to feed a cow for a year, then take 20% off. How much would that affect the profitability of your cow herd? If you have any questions about feed efficiency or would like to see the set of data on the entire pen, please contact Barry. All of our bulls are TH free. All the bulls are myostatin free with the exception of 352J, which has one copy of the E226X variant. Feel free to contact us about any information on the bulls. We would be happy to answer any questions that you may have. Videos of the bulls can be seen on our Facebook page. www.facebook.com/saskvalleyshorthorns/videos .

Individual Feed Efficiency Results
Feb 9 to April 28, 2022
RFI calculated by Livestock Gentec, University of Alberta, Lisa McKeown & John Basarab
CP:13.2% Ca:0.85% P:0.36% TDN:71.8% Negain:49 Mcal/cwt
39.96% Corn; 5.17% Straw; 8.09% DG; 26.56% Silage; 19.18% Barley (DM basis)
Residual feed intake (RFI) is defined as the difference between an animals actual feed intake and its expected feed requirements for maintenance and growth, and is used as a selection tool for selecting feed efficient animals and thus, reducing feed costs.

Weaning weight ration of 124. Top 4% for $BMI.
Calving Ease (CE) Listed as a percentage of unassisted calvings. A higher CED EPD predicts a sire that will have a higher percentage of unassisted calves.
Birth Weight (BW) At the basic level, birth weight is nothing more than an indicator trait for calving ease, but the emphasis on birth weight can be overdone. Economically, over selecting for low birth weights can take us in the wrong direction; cattle still sell by the pound. Use BW EPD in conjunction with calving ease. Phenotypic traits like length of body, shoulder design, head shape, circumference of bone and even frame score play a significant role in determining birth weights and calving ease.
Weaning Weights (WW) Put simply, weaning weight is the ability of a bull’s calf to dry off, stagger to its feet, and grow like mad. Finding a sire with a strong WW that also excels in other economically relevant traits important to your breeding program is a key element to success.
Yearling Weight (YW) This trait is economically important since it is more indicative of growth potential through market weights taken early in the animals life. Single trait selection for YW can lead to serious problems that can affect bottom line profit. Mature must be monitored when selecting a bull for performance via YW EPD. Cow maintenance costs, calving difficulty, and even breeding problems can result. YW EPDs can be very influential if you understand your environment conditions or if you are retaining ownership in your calves from birth to slaughter.
Milk (M) A bull’s Milk EPD is determined by his daughter’s ability to wean heavier calves than her contemporaries. Just because a cow weans a heavier calf each year does not necessarily mean her Milk EPD should be the highest in the herd. The performance of her calf can also be attributed to the dam’s or sire’s growth genetics or a number of environmental factors. Milk EPDs can be too high for your environmental conditions especially in severe environmental conditions and can have a negative impact on rebreeding rates.
$Value Indexes
$ CEZ – ($ Calving Ease) This index assumes a bull will only be mated to heifers, not cows. The potential profitability of the sire is measured by the incidence of live calves at birth. Moderate mature size is also emphasized in the index., but performance is not a priority. This index is also a good measure of Shorthorn females’ ability to produce calving ease sires. Overemphasis of $CEZ may cause unwanted depression of weaning and yearling performance
$BMI – ($ British Maternal Index) As the name implies, this multi-trait selection index attempts to measure a bull’s potential profitability when complimenting the British cow base (Angus, Red Angus, Hereford, etc.). Shorthorn females can likewise be gauged at adding value to British or British-composite bulls of other breeds. A balance of growth and carcass traits is desired with a strong maternal component aimed at optimum reproductive efficiency and cow longevity.
$F – ($ Feedlot) Similar to a Terminal Sire scenario, $Feedlot places strong emphasis on growth and carcass traits. This multi-trait index assumes the sire will be mated to a mix of heifers and cows and attempts to measure profitability when progeny are sold on the fed market. On the female side, mature size should be monitored closely when selecting for $F. Overselection may cause detrimental harm to longevity, reproductive efficiency, and fleshing ability.
Ultrasound Definitions
Ribeye Area (REA) Area of the longissimus muscle, measured in square inches. The trait is moderately to highly heritable and gives an indication of overall carcass muscling.
