Welcome to the LCL Bull Sale and it is always a privilege to be working with the Carfantan family! 2025 edition of the bulls is THE best ever presented in terms of what the bull pen has to offer for you. Typically the way Mother Nature works is if you get a strong set of bull calves your replacement pen suffers a bit or vice versa but that isn’t the case here! Years of selective breeding and hours of effort put into fine tuning their genetic craft is paying off in a big way, the benefits are yours to reap as a customer of LCL as not only is there an excellent set of bulls but the high quality females that will be put back into the cow herd for future returns. Be sure to stop in to view the bulls either before or on the 13th or 14th for some hospitality and evaluate the bulls at your own leisure! If you need assistance in bidding on the bulls in this online format feel welcome to contact LCL or ourselves at Castlerock Marketing as we would be happy to assist you if needed or just have questions regarding the offering.
See you sale day!

First time users will select the REGISTER button from this page. Fill out the registration form to signup for a free user account and it allows you to select a username and password for use on all Farm Gate Timed auctions. This program will send you text and email messages whenever there is activity on your favorite lots or someone challenges your proxy bid and this is why you will be asked for both your current email and cell phone number. If you are a past participant in the Farm Gate Timed auctions simply enter your user name and password to continue. This takes you to a list of both current and upcoming Farm Gate Auctions.
2. You can choose your favourite lots in this sale at this time and the program will allow you to open either all sale lots or just your favorite lots on your screen. Any time there is active bidding on a lot you have identified on your favorite list you will get a text and/or an email noting this activity.
3. The program allows you to place a proxy bid on any sale lot. This in fact protects your interest in any lot of interest for you to a specified dollar value you set, when you may not be able to give 100% attention to the sale. If the lot has a $2000 bid on it and you place a proxy bid of $3500 into the system, the computer will bid $2100 for you but if some one else bids $2200, the computer will again bid for you, this time at $2300. The system will look after your interest to a maximum of $3500. If another bidder is on at $3600, your proxy will no longer be effective and you will no longer have the winning bid on this lot without once again logging in and bidding again or moving your attention to a second lot of interest.
4. At closing time of the sale the entire sale will extend bidding if a bid is placed on any lot in the sale. Any bid received after close time will extend the sale by the time listed on each sale. In Most cases the time gets shorter the longer in to extended bidding the sale is. When no bidding occurs for the extended time the computer will declare the sale finished.
5. Following the sale the Owner or Sale Manager will invoice all buyers in the sale, please contact the seller with questions or to arrange delivery, pick up or shipping of your purchases.

FAQ:
WHAT IS RACEHORSE STYLE SALE CLOSE? Racehorse style sale close is when the entire sale stays open in extended bidding. This type of sale allows you as the bidder to change to a different lot within the same sale if the bidding has gone in to extended bidding.
HOW WILL EXTENDED BIDDING WORK? When we get to the close out end time the clock for close extends with any bid placed with less than 5 min on the clock. This type of extended bidding turns the end time to more of a soft time. Extended bidding allows bidders to compete in lots like a real auction and give all bidders the same time to make a decision. Always follow the clock to see how much time remains in the sale you are interested in. CASTLEROCK

NEW FOR THIS YEAR...
My name is Bryce Carfantan and this year I am trying the Pen of Three project in my 4-H Club. I hand picked 3 heifers out of our herd at home. These heifers are out of LCL Angus Bulls. I picked 3 white face heifers that should fit in, in any commercial herd. They are strong bodied, fancy heifers with a quiet touch. I would like to thank Uncle Lee, Auntie Leanne and the boys for letting me sell the girls in the bull sale. I’ve been in 4-H for 6 years now and glad for the new learning experience. I hope to expand my knowledge of the marketing side of the cattle industry with these breeding heifers.
