Bruce Chrestiansen, IA “The calf catcher is very easy to use and provides lots of safety... could not imagine calving without it!” Mike Shelton, TX “I am 65 years old and run about 100 cows, and my catcher makes my life a lot simpler and safer. I absolutely love it!” Allen Lippert, KY “What a valuable improvement for our operation, not only perfect for banding and tagging, also great for moving calves. Recommended for one man operations.”

Moving Pairs is Easy!

Dennis Dowell, KS “Just a note to tell you how well we like our catcher. It is great for the problem cows!” Tom Hess, WI “Our catcher is quite an outfit! Wished I had one long ago. I really like it!”

TECH TRENDS

Making the Irreplaceable…Replaceable.

Every great donor, bull, or steer comes to an end. But do they have to? By Sara Kober, Courtesy of Trans Ova Genetics In the cattle industry, many breeders value and cherish genetics that have been proven in their breeding program. Advanced reproductive technologies such as embryo transfer (ET), in vitro fertilization (IVF), sexed-semen, genetic preservation and cloning have allowed breeders to achieve specific goals within their program and extend the impact of genetics that they have continually counted on. But when that “key breeding piece” in a program becomes unavailable, whether it be through reproductive incapability or even an untimely death, does that animal’s genetic impact have to end once the semen or embryos are gone? Preserving the traits of an elite animal is one of the best investments that can be made. Diane Broek, sales and marketing manager of ViaGen, reminds breeders that the best way to prepare and protect yourself against the sudden injury, illness or death of a promising individual’s genetics, is in the form of investment insurance, and genetic preservation is the ideal way to do this. Genetic preservation and cloning are two unique services offered by ViaGen, of Cedar Point, Texas, which is a subsidiary of Trans Ova Genetics of Sioux Center, Iowa.

“Having the ability to harvest the value from a proven animal, and his or her genotype for years to come can be a very wise investment,” says Broek. As a precursor to the cloning process, a simple tissue sample (usually from the ear) is all that is required to start a genetic preservation of an animal. These tissue samples are cultured to produce millions of cells that are genetically identical to the genetic donor animal’s cells. The cells are then cryogenically frozen and can be stored indefinitely in conditions similar to semen and embryo storage. Cells (DNA) from a small portion of the genetic preservation can later be thawed to be used in the cloning process, when desirable or optimal to do so. A more economical version of DNA storage, an Express Tissue Bank, is also available for large scale preservation While dependent on environmental conditions, a tissue sample for a genetic preservation can be taken up to 24 to 48 hours after an animal’s death. While injury and death are great reasons to send in a tissue sample, Dr. Dave Faber, president of Trans Ova Genetics, advises not to wait until the last minute.

“People need to be proactive and preserve valuable genetics while the animal is still alive. Waiting until death is risky due to weekends, holidays, extreme weather conditions, overnight shipments, etc. They also only have ONE chance to culture the cells in the case of a death event, whereas if the animal is alive when the tissue sample is taken, the process can be repeated if something prevents the culture from being successful.” While artificial insemination (AI), ET, and IVF each have their own application to cattle breeders, genetic preservation and cloning offer unique benefits. Many breeders spend a lifetime attempting to find an elite animal that can take their genetics to the next level. With cloning, breeders have the advantage of knowing exactly what they will produce. “The production of a genetic preservation or cell line can be less expensive than some insurance programs,” says Broek. “And through cloning, it allows the breeder to produce a genetic twin to the animal that has already proven its value. For many of us, the opportunity to work with a truly elite animal comes along only once, or twice, in a lifetime. Having the ability to replace those outstanding genetics with a younger, identical, living, breathing version of our favorite cow or bull can be much more valuable to us than the actual monetary cost of the loss.”

Once the first step of a genetic preservation has been made, breeders look to cloning as a technology that allows them to: - Produce a genetic twin of an elite animal no longer capable of producing embryos or semen - Produce an intact male/bull for breeding purposes from a castrated male (steers, geldings, etc.) - Produce a genetic twin of an elite animal that has died. - Produce quantities of elite individuals for the purpose of large-scale, consistent genetic influence within a herd-building program or to meet semen and embryo demand from other breeders The industry is always challenging breeders to make unique decisions that will help them sustain and grow. While managing expenses and carefully thinking through the most promising strategic investments, breeders should consider investments that can yield known results and solid returns. ViaGen provides preservation and cloning services for cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, horses, deer and pets. (Cats and dogs)

It is rare that a purebred bull is the crowd favorite in Denver. This double-clean, monster bellied, square hipped, big haired, sound on the move bull is a rare find. Kingmaker is an I-80 out of one of the breed’s highest revenue producing females, Bushy Park’s GCC NFLL New Dreams 725T (Irish Whiskey x Chill Factor). Pictured here at 1300 pounds at 11 1/2 months of age he packs power, balance, and performance that will surely make him a breed changer. Stop and see him at Nichol’s Cryo Genetics in Maxwell, Iowa.

Top Five Reasons to Sell Online

EXPAND YOUR REACH. With an online sales platform, you are able to reach a much broader customer base than selling private treaty or through a production sale. Buyers are not limited by travel time or locational logistics. Anyone with a computer, tablet or smart phone can tune in to your sale, view your lots and click to bid. Many sellers find they will have bidders and buyers from states they’ve never sold to before and likely wouldn’t have via traditional sales methods. The online avenue opens the door...you just have to walk through it!

SIZE DOESN’T MATTER. Online sales level the playing field. Whether you are selling 50 head or five, your sale reaches the same audience – the World Wide Web. This means equal opportunity and increased name and brand awareness, regardless of the size of your operation. Even if potential bidders don’t find what they need from a set you put online, they might like what they see on your sale and call about what else you have, or keep an eye out for your next sale date. You can bet if they like what they

see, they’ll notice your name the next time they see it – and you can’t put a price on name recognition.

TIME SAVING. When compared to live sales and phone bid-offs, online sales are much more time effective. No facility to set-up, sales staff to organize or phone bids dragging on for days. The biggest time requirement will be preparing the livestock for picture day. Photos and videos are ideally posted for viewing about a week before the sale, then bidding typically lasts somewhere between 12-15 hours. That’s it! Online sales also offer the advantage of time-savings after the sale in money collection. Buyers receive an invoice immediately following the close of the sale, and the auction company works to collect those payments on your behalf. No hassle on your end of making phone calls, tracking down checks, etc. Just sit back and watch the money come in.

BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK. For those who are cost-conscious, an online sale is a no-brainer. There are fewer inputs (facilities, labor, time) and greater outputs (more marketing, more reach, more impact). Not to mention, there is no catalog to design, print and mail – a huge cost savings! Will there still be time, effort and money involved? Yes. But for the same amount (or less), your overall impact will increase exponentially.

LESSEN THE STRESS. Let’s be honest – sale day is going to come with a certain level of stress whether it’s online, on the phone or on your farm. But with an online sale, you have less hassle and your livestock face less stress when a live audience isn’t involved. An added bonus – bad weather won’t wane your sale attendance. Taking away the element of unpredictability, you can focus on what matters most. Beyond that, with an online sale comes a team of professionals to help you get the job done – from the marketing before the sale to sale-day management and handling the financials after the sale, you always have someone by your side. You pick the date, provide the livestock and turn it over to your sales team for the rest!

BLOAT - the Silent Killer

FROM A

VET

Imagine the nightmare: walking in to the barn to find your calf gasping for air and close to death. Even worse, walking in to find a calf that is no longer breathing…. At this time of year, our practice is frequently receiving phone calls from panicked owners about their cattle, goats or sheep that are in distress due to ruminal bloat. The focus of this article will explain how to identify signs and causes of bloat, possible treatments that can be performed at the farm, and what cases may be identified as a severe emergency that should be addressed by a veterinarian. The issue of bloat cannot be stressed enough as it is one of primary causes of unexpected death in our ruminants on feed. How do I know my Ruminant is Bloating? Ruminal bloat, also referred to as “ruminal tympany,” is defined as an over distention of the rumen with the gases of fermentation. Most ruminants displaying clinical signs of bloat will have a distended abdomen that is not symmetrical. This means that if you are standing behind your ruminant, one side of the abdomen is not quite even in width with the other. Typically, the left side of the ruminant’s abdomen is larger in appearance than the right side. The “swelling” is noted in the left paralumbar fossa, the depressed area of the abdomen observed in front of the hook bone. As veterinarians, we listen to this area of the abdomen with a stethoscope to appreciate the quality and quantity of sounds coming from the rumen. Often times (and you can try this at home by placing your ear to the area described above), the rumen motion (or motility) will be slower than normal. This is due to a decreased movement of rumen contents to the other compartments of the stomach. As rumen distention becomes more severe, the ruminant may show clinical signs of pain and distress. A common occurrence is difficulty breathing. Respiratory distress signs can start with a mild grunting and progress to an increased respiratory rate with short/fast breaths, which may be associated with the pain bloat causes. The more severe sign of respiratory distress due to boat can include open mouth breathing with or without an extended neck. These more severe signs can be related to the overly distended rumen causing increased pressure on the thoracic cavity and lungs, decreasing the ability of the lungs to expand and the calf to attain a full breath. These situations are an emergency as the added respiratory distress can cause abnormal blood gas and blood chemistry values that could be life-threatening. Clinical signs of bloat can be classified into three categories based on severity and timeline of events: Category

Clinical Signs

Mild

No evidence of distress, distention of the left paralumbar fossa, skin over the region can be grasped/tented

Moderate

Anxiety/uncomfortable, increased respiratory rate but good inspirational movement, skin is taut over left paralumbar fossa

Severe

Distressed behavior, increased respiratory rate with short/shallow inspiratory breath (appears “out of breath”), open mouth breathing, decreased rumen motility, distention of both sides of the abdomen

What causes Bloat? How do we Treat it? Two causes of bloat are primary ruminal tympany (or frothy bloat) and secondary ruminal tympany (or free-gas bloat). Frothy bloat is caused by the development of a foam or froth in the rumen due proteinaceous material in the rumen creating a mononuclear slime around gas bubbles. This creates surface tension that doesn’t allow the gas bubbles to coalesce or combine (imagine small bubbles coming together into one large bubble). If the gas cannot coalesce, the ruminant cannot eructate (“belch” or “burp”). With continued distention, the rumen motility will often decrease with loss of ruminal muscle tone (muscles that help the rumen move and contract).

Frothy bloat is most often observed when ruminants have been on high-quality forage (like alfalfa or clover), but has also been observed with high-quality concentrates as well. This form of bloat is very difficult to manually relieve (forces exercise, passing a stomach tube, bloat trocar) due to the lack of free gas available to escape the rumen. We must rely on “surfactants” to help break the surface tension that the “slime” produces. These surfactant products may be administered by drench or orogastric tube (or occasionally if the only option is by intraruminal trocar) to relieve bloat. The most commonly used products are “poloxalene” or dioctynate. Free-gas bloat is most often associated with the over consumption of grain/high starch feeds. These bloats may also be associated with dysfunction of portions of the rumen or fore stomach, causing poor motility, obstruction within the rumen or esophagus (“choke” from a foreign body or tumor), or other conditions affecting rumen movement. “Positional gas bloat” has been observed when a ruminant lies down with their feet pointed up hill or are in a situation where they are forced to lie on their side for an extended amount of time. These bloats are fairly easily relieved by mechanically releasing the gas: walking, passing a tube from the mouth to the rumen, ruminal trocharization (a two-piece tool that is placed through the skin at the paralumbar space directly through the rumen and will allow expulsion of gas). Certain times, particularly when overconsumption of concentrates is expected, some buffering agent such as magnesium oxide, or an agent to speed movement such a mineral oil should be administered to help relieve the re-accumulation of gas in the rumen. In addition, some bloats may be attributed to vagal nerve dysfunction, commonly known as vagal indigestion. This is usually a developmental problem, usually associated with an inflammatory process in the chest (like pneumonia) that impacts the function of the vagus nerve and will impact rumen function and movement. Although these are treated symptomatically, a proper diagnosis is required to deal with these long term as they are a recurring problem. Conclusion: BLOAT = EMERGENCY All bloats, no matter the kind, should be treated as a medical emergency. We have previously outlined how to deal with each one individually. The most important thing to remember is to protect the animal’s ability to breathe. Death is by asphyxiation, the inability to properly utilize oxygen, as the ruminant is not able to breathe in enough oxygen to live. As described above, this is a mechanical problem where the increased abdominal pressure impinges on the diaphragm and limits the animal’s ability to take a full breath. If an animal is observed to open-mouth breathing and in respiratory distress, do not make the mistake of trying to tube the animal (as the airway could be further compromised). Additionally, remember to not place the animal in a position of restraint that might compromise their ability to breathe. These situations include a crowd alley or squeeze chute that does not have an escape gate on the side. Bloated and stressed ruminants may want to lie down and become trapped in an area where there are constricted and may have further issues with trying to breathe. If you find yourself in an emergency situation with a bloated ruminant situation, the best option may be to use a trocar or lock blade knife to puncture the rumen at the appropriate site in the left paralumbar fossa (an incision must be made through the skin and muscle tissues first). There is a large expulsion of gas (with a free-gas bloat) and usually immediate relief for the animal. However, this may not be as relieving for a frothy bloat. After this is performed, immediately call a veterinarian to repair the site and provide care for any other issues.

One weird habit/skill/fact about you: I have read the Bible every year to my calves for all 10 years of my 4-H career. Favorite show memory so far: Having both grand champion and reserve grand champion steers at my fair the same year. Least favorite show day task: Breaking calves down and packing up Most embarrassing stock show moment: Blacking out right before I had to go into the ring.

kOuTs, iNdiANA | AGE: 18

Breeds you show: Charolais heifers and steers Siblings: Caleb Behrends, 14 FREdERicksbuRG, TX | AGE: 16 Favorite activities outside the show ring: Playing volleyball, interacting in 4-H, livestock judging and hanging out with friends Favorite movie/TV show: The Bachelor and Full House Favorite singer/music group: George Strait Favorite book/author: Nicholas Sparks Pet Peeve: When I’m about to enter the show ring and somebody comes over and runs their hands across my calf, messing up its hair What’s your favorite stock show and why? My favorite stock show is the Charolais Junior Nationals because it is a week of making new friends, showing very competitively, having fun activities to do constantly, and most importantly making many memories that will last a lifetime What do you want to be when you grow up? I would like to either go into the marketing/business field or be an interior designer Favorite subject in school: Math and Science Would you rather dance, play cards or hula hoop: Dance Favorite show memory so far: At the Royal in 2014. I was lucky enough to win Champion Jr Charolais heifer with my favorite heifer, Gypsy Least favorite show day task: Getting up early, I’m not a morning person Most embarrassing stock show moment: In 2014, I also went to the National Western heifer show. When I went in to show, all of the sudden I got really nervous because it was my first time to show there and it was kind of a big deal. My teeth were chattering and my heart was beating about 100 miles per hour; everyone around me was laughing at me and asked if I needed to run around the barn a few times before I went into the show ring. It all ended up working out great, of course

SCO hosted both of our online sales this fall, and we with the level of se were extremely plea rvice and expertise sed pr ov id ed from the marketing sale to the office st before the aff following-up af ter the sale. The cutting-edge techno SCO platform prov logy on a user-fri ides en dl y ba si s. We look forwar future of being a d to the part of the SCO team and recomm you market your en d using SCO to he livestock! lp Mark & Kevin Benes / Gateway Genetics We really enjoyed the helpful customer service of the SCO team. We have had sales for years, but we really liked the new customer base we acquired through our first online sale. Mark, Matt & Miles Weigel | Weigel’s Steerpit

We made a change to SC Online for our 2015 sale becau se

we felt they had developed a sale platform that was su-

perior to the competition. Not only was the platform much

more user-friendly for both our buyers, and us, the overal l

service that was provided by SCO far exceeded our expec-

tations. Rick Frye went the extra mile to view and under-

stand the cattle offering and his level of commitment and

communication before and after the sale was outstanding.

Based on our experience, I would highly recommend SCO to

anyone considering an online sale. It well worth your time

to fully understand what they have to offer.

Marc Younge | Younge Cattle Co.

There are a lot of choices when it comes to online sale hosting, but for us the choice was simple. SCO offers an outstanding format, industry leading seller benefits and a sale

representative we know and trust in Dave Stoltz. Couple that with the organized, friendly, detail-driven staff, and we came away with a positive experience that will have us coming back again and again!

Show Circuit Online Sales has quickly become a household name – ALL for good reasons! Everything was just as they told us it would be. We were extremely pleased with the promotion of the cattle and the sale. Thank you to the sale reps and office help for a job well done, and congrats to SCO for a great online program! Wayne & Barb Ohlrichs SCO is a breath of fresh air! They are ahead of the game with their ability to pull together such a great product for the seller and buyer. As a seller, their customer service was second-to-none. Their reps went the extra mile to help sell the cattle and get buyers. For our buyers, they made it so easy to purchase online. I look forward to doing business SCO in the future as a seller and buyer! Thank you SCO – you make the future look very bright in the online sales world! Craig Stohlmann | Stohlmann Show Cattle

SCO...Best software, best advertising, and most importantly the best people!! These guys worked to make our sales a success. The thing that impressed me the most was the fact that we had people buying that said our rep personally called and recommended our cattle. To me, that’s how it’s supposed to work! You’re not just paying for the software – these guys are working for you. Our customers really liked the bidding format, and the Seller’s Portal made it so easy to check on payment status as well as obtain customer information.

Poad Cattle Company & Friends Online Sales

MARCH 28 & APRIL 17 We are very excited to be established at our new location in Cisco, Texas. We were saddened by the fact that our families show career had come to a halt with our oldest daughter, Paige, graduating high school, and our youngest daughter, Libbi, entering kindergarten. We as a family decided to move to Texas. Myself and my wife, Alisha, thought it was the perfect opportunity to leave “The Coldest Place In The Nation With The Warmest Heart,” Lone Rock, Wisconsin. As we fathom this overwhelming life experience, we are very excited for the next step in our Show Cattle Program. Feel free to stop by and visit our new facility, and to view our show cattle for sale.

If you are looking for the bulls that put it all together look no further. Safe Bet and Intuition put style, correctness, muscle, and that soft appearance together like no other bulls. Both of these bulls possess a great EPD profile with true calving ease, and performance. Safe Bet has proven to work in both the Purebred business and the club calf world, as I believe Intuition will do the same. Both bulls come cow families backed by power and performance, not only in the production but the show ring as well. Simply put, These are the Right Bulls for the Right Time!

"A golden opportunity to get in on a bull that is as unique as any ever been offered" brandon Horn

mother of IGWT

In God We Trust

business done right X horn 419 Heatwave

Now to the good stuff! IGWT is out of a flush that was as strong as any that was produced anywhere anytime. His birthweight was closer to 70 than it was 90 and if you don't think he was stout enough go ahead and check out that 20 day old video of him!!! The hair on this creature was second to None and that is a fact. Combine all that and then we can tell you this bull's mother is nothing short of a super-generating cash-cow that is a sister to the Grand Steer in Ft Worth 2012!! This is the most unique animal that I have ever raised!! He is as good as it gets and I am truly blessed and thankful to have raised him! Brandon Horn
