Wcome to the 31st Annual Moose Creek Red Angus Spring Bull Sale. When we added up all of the bull sales, female sales and open house sales, this is technically our 68th Red Angus production sale. We thank each of you for your interest and appreciate you browsing through our catalogue.

A lot has happened since our last bull sale in April of 2024. We first of all got to say goodbye to our Auctioneer Brent Carey in a sad but memorable memorial in May. It is hard to believe, but he rode point for our operation for over 35 years. His wit and counsel are missed every day. Secondly, we saw prices we only dreamt of for feeder cattle and breeding stock. I’m thankful for it and congratulations to the producers that stayed the course and were able to experience it. Next, we made the decision to disperse our entire commercial cowherd in late December. It was with mixed emotions that we did this. The goal to match the work to the staff and feed led us to this sale. Honestly, the results were out of this world, more than could be imagined. In a 10-day stretch, 1100 red-hided commercial cows and heifers averaged north of $5000. The industry has spoken; the red cow is the queen of the range. Those two dispersals were the highest selling commercial cowherd dispersals in North American history! Finally and most obviously, we combined our two bull sales to make one. Most of my peers thought I was crazy for having 2 sales; those that know me already knew that!

The sale will be conducted in the same low-key manner as it has always been. Bulls will sell by video and in catalogue order. They’ll be penned on hard ground to examine feet and legs and will be delivered to your door free of charge. That will start shortly after the sale. The development of the bulls is slow and responsible – you can find a detailed explanation in the catalogue. We have scored each bull for calving ease off of a list of qualities. We continue to receive very positive feedback from that exercise. A group of the 2-year-old bulls have been used on our commercial heifers. They will be trich tested and carry a clean bill of health.

In closing, please join us in person for steak and hospitality or online with DLMS if you’re unable to attend. We thank you all for the past support and look forward to earning your business and friendship.

Sincerely,

ren Ipp ito

MOOSE CREEK ICELADY 60C

We are excited about this rascal. He’s big and powerful, heavy boned and dog quiet. A brother topped our sale a few years back to W Sunrise and a daughter was a lead off heifer calf in Red Round-Up to JAS. Clash has done an excellent job in all of the herds that sampled him. Muscle, structure and loads of middle are consistent qualities of these Clash calves. After the dust settles on the 2025 bull sale season, Clash will have sired some of the highest valued, more sought after sons in North America. There may be a couple Clash sons selling in Canada that edge this guy out on quality, but trust me, not a single one has a better mother; physically or production wise – because I’ve seen all the other dams in question.

The only thing better than having a 60C son, is having a 60C outcross son. These Glacier bulls are setting records for price and wowing the onlookers for quality. Multiple sons have sold from $50-$180K the past 2 seasons and the interest doesn’t seem to be waning. Springfield has 3 full sisters that we are excited to get into the replacement pen. He is the youngest bull in the sale, don’t discount him for that. He’s got the performance and the chops to hang with the big boys.

RED DUFF RED WARRIOR 21104

SAV RAINFALL 6846

RAINBOW LARK 73J

This stylish, calving ease prospect came in dam from the historic Rainbow Dispersal. His dam is a picture – a model Angus female. She was a $20,000 purchase that day and one of the 3 best “purple” females to sell anywhere. Her pedigree is extremely maternal with Rainfall and Weston, a past high seller and National Champion. The neatest part is this is the only Red Warrior son to sell in Canada. On a trip through Niobrara in September, handsome Jacob Bathke showed me the largest group of Red Warriors anywhere. I am convinced that they were their best sire group. Lead time, outcross pedigree, impeccable foot structure; he’s the real deal.

A true shot multi-generation calving ease bull. 78M is a product of some exclusive semen purchased from (Pud) Phil Birnie. Old Pud was a Nazi for feet and structure and this fella stands on some terrific boots. His mom is a looker, you can’t paint an udder on a cow nicer than that. This guy has some swagger and presence too. A sale feature.

Really neat IVF ET calf here. Keep that in mind when you look at his BW. Big bodied and hairy, he profiles extremely well with a huge set of rocks. His littermate sister is a low BW carbon copy of him. He is easy to find in the pen and has made more than his share of friends. Bulls that look like this, out of cows like 44F, don’t come around very often.

BULL DEVELOPMENT

As a buyer and a seller of bulls, over-conditioned bulls don’t work for us; figuratively, and literally. They are lethargic breeders with excessive weight that melts off too rapidly. This isn’t a jab at how others develop their bulls but an honest assessment of how these bulls have failed us numerous times. I can’t afford to have a breeding bull miss a beat during season, no sense setting him up to fail ahead of time.

We target a moderate gain of 2.5-2.75 lbs/day on our young bulls. It’s a “cooler” ration comprised of whole oats, premix, corn silage, alfalfa hay and straw. The 2-year-olds are fed that ration as yearlings too. Whether we carry over the bull or sell for breeding the first year, they are developed exactly the same. As a 2-year-old, the bulls receive cracked corn instead of whole oats. By sale time, the 2-year-olds will be on a heavy “dry” ration with no grain and limited silage. This will help transition them to a similar ration that they’ll receive at their new homes. The yearling bulls will be coasted along at the same rate of gain, with more dry matter to help them adjust too.

The most important part of the development isn’t what goes into the feed wagon, but the system in which they are developed. Our cowherd eats a low-cost, heavy-fiber diet of slough hay, straw and feed waste. It is then balanced using silage and greenfeed to get appropriate levels of energy. We graze as long as the weather and the water holds, don’t sort cows into age or condition groups and cull the hell out of the hard-doing ones. This system has rewarded us with an amazingly efficient and adaptable cow herd. The harder you are on your cows, the easier it is to sell your bulls.

PERFORMANCE NUMBERS AND EPD’S

All of our printed performance data is actuals, not adjusted. I’ve never been a big fan of adjusting the weights. The formula to benefit young and older cows, as well as later born calves frustrates me. I feel that they are unfairly adjusted. We buy and sell a fair amount of feeder cattle. It’s extremely important that those cattle are represented correctly as well as their weights are accurate. Too often, we’ll see adjusted 365D weights of 1400+, yet sale day, at 14 months, the bulls hardly crack 1300lbs. This is again an example of how the adjustment doesn’t represent the cattle correctly. Our cattle are weighed across an annually calibrated, legal for sale scale. It’s the only way we feel comfortable printing the data- it must be 100% accurate,

We don’t use EPD’s. I don’t even look at them. Breeders have told me that they are a valuable tool for selection and I’m missing out. I can’t argue with their operations or the role that they play as a selection aide. I’ve even been accused of being anti-science as genomics don’t factor in at all in our selection criteria. We were one of the original Leptin testing herds, Grow Safe trialed 10 years ago, high immune response tested and have done genetic research programs with NGO and academia. We acquired very little to no relevant data from those trials; therefore, I’m skeptical that genomics will improve our herd quicker than those trials. I also made the decision that once I get udders, feet, ease of fleshing, temperament, structure and hair where I want, I will focus on the numbers. Until then, we have concentrated on operating a strict system that removes the unfertile, hard doing and un-sound cattle. That is still the most effective and unforgiving method for herd and breed improvement that we have found.

HERD SIRES

We have scoured the industry for bulls that fit our criteria. Heavy muscled yet smooth and balanced. Hairy, masculine, rugged with big testicles. Sound to the ground – feet, legs and free moving. Produced by a front pasture, proven mother. Raised in a disciplined, competitive system where an emphasis on maternal strength is a high priority. Swagger, eye appeal and marketability.

We are extremely proud of our bull battery. It’s proven and industry accepted. We own the top used Red Angus bull in Canada as well as the 4th most too. So far this sale season, we’ve witnessed sons of our sires sell as high sellers for multiple operations. Our influence in the industry isn’t something we take lightly. Some of the highest valued donors carry our brand on their shoulder. It’s an honour to showcase our genetics to so many producers.
