The cooperating breeders in this test have utilized extensive AI and embryo transfer practices to improve the genetics of their herds. Several of the bulls on this test represent four to five generations of AI genetics.
Both breeders utilize the AHIR service provided by the American Angus Association to record performance data on both bulls and heifers. An emphasis is placed on selecting herd sires and replacement females with balanced EPDs.
The senior bulls on this test have been limit-fed a forage based ration utilizing corn silage, free choice high moisture barley hay and a 15% protein commodity feed to balance the ration. The junior bulls were self-fed a 15% protein, 25% fiber ration with free choice hay.
All bulls have been vaccinated to meet the criteria of the Pfizer Gold program and have been dewormed. All bulls offered will have passed a breeding soundness exam prior to the sale.
If you have any questions about our bulls or our program please feel free to call. We look forward to seeing you on March 8, 2008!
