Welcome to our 2024 offering. We certainly appreciate
your interest in our stock. While this past year has been extremely challenging weather wise, similar conditions are facing most of the major cow calf producing areas across the entire North American continent. As the rebuild of our industry’s cow herd awaits better moisture and forage supplies, there has never been a stronger demand for beef. It is with great relief that calf prices are so strong to finally match our increasing costs. As our program evolves, it is quite satisfying to see the groups become more and more uniform, with lower birthweights and larger scrotals, while still maintaining the rugged structure and Limousin character. We are always working towards achieving our goal of producing some of the finest Limousin feeder calves on the planet.
Thank you for your continued support of our program. We would like to invite everyone to our Open House on the afternoon of March 10, 2024, or phone to come tour our offering any time before then. Regards, Clayton, Lois and Tim Greg and Linnea

B BAR/HAWKEYE OSCAR 1E ET Oscar is a son of the renown Richmond Zodiac, a cornerstone herd bull of the Richmond Ranch. On the female side is the well known B Bar Foxtrot. The combination of these two individuals raised the bar in the Limousin breed in terms of traditional muscle shape, hair and performance. Oscar is a heavy scurred, rugged breeding bull that will see active pasture service as a 7 year old. Owned with Conner Bros. - Hanna, AB
B BAR/HAWKEYE STING 47F ET In an attempt to make our cow herd more uniform, we partnered with our friends at Pinnacle View Limousin on the Sting bull. During his first breeding season the Oscar bull so impressed us in terms of conception and the way he kept his condition along with his incredible sound structure, we knew we wanted his brother. This hetero polled full brother to the Oscar bull has over 280 half siblings in the CLA handbook, relating to how popular these genetics are within our breed. Sting offspring are moderate framed, heavily muscled, more traditionally colored and docile. We are very proud of the way this pair of herd bulls have consistently produced on our Zipper and Slate females.

DC EVINRUDE 56E
Evinrude was a top prospect who came from the noted DC Farms – Doug, Carolyn and Carriann Johnson - herd at Barrhead, AB. He walked in Ontario on the Justin Burgess – New Life operation at Hanover. After siring three impressive calf crops there, we purchased him in 2021 in order to incorporate more mass, performance and scrotal into our herd. He was lost to a bull fight early in his second breeding season.
B BAR PAPA 39E Papa was first purchased by John and Michelle Maclean of Haystack Acres of Point Pelee, Ontario. He was one of the high sellers at the inaugural B Bar Sale in the fall of 2017. His EPD profile ranks him in the top third of the breed in 11 of 15 categories and excelling in the top 1% of the breed for milk. Long spined, with an actual birthweight of 87 lbs, this cherry red herd bull is siring calves with extension, testicular development and moderate birthweights.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN A FARMGATE TIMED SALE www.farmgatetimedauctions.ca/auction
After you are on the FarmGate Timed auction site click the LOGIN/REGISTRATION button. FIRST TIME FARMGGATE USERS First time users will select the REGISTER button from this page. Fill out the registration form to sign up for a free user account and it allows you to select a username and password for use on all Farm Gate Timed auctions. (Please note due to some of the text notification features the FarmGate Timed Auction Site requires a new account separate account from your DLMS Live sale site). After you create your FarmGate account you will receive a text message with a pin code to verify your account. On your first log in to FarmGate Timed auctions we recommend you go to your profile and confirm your notifications are set to YES. This allows the site to send you text and/or email notifications when you are out bid and if there is activity on your favorite lots. RETURNING FARMGATE USERS If you have used FarmGate Timed auctions in the past simply enter your username and password to continue. After you have logged in you are able to browse the timed auctions on DLMS FarmGate Timed Auctions. HOW TO BID IN A TIMED AUCTION Now that you are logged in and your account phone number/email is verified you can bid on an upcoming sale. Simply find the lot you are interested in bidding on. After you have found the lot there are two options for bidding on the lot. Place Next Bid – to place the next bid on the item, you see the amount in the first box, you simply click the “Place Bid” button and after you review the bid and agree to the terms and conditions your bid will be placed. Max Bid Amount – to place a max bid you put your max bid in the second box listed as “Max Bid” on the item, and then click the “Place Bid” button and after you review the bid and agree to the terms and conditions your bid will be placed as the next bid. With the Max Bid placed the computer will then keep you as the high bidder to the max amount you have placed. This can be a great feature if you are not able to give 100% attention to the sale close out and protect your interest, so you do not miss out on any lots you want to purchase. The Max Bid amount is completely confidential from the seller during the sale process. Example of How the Max Bid Works - 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 someone 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. Please note that in some cases value on a lot can change very quickly if two max bids are placed on the same lot competing against each other. SALE ENDING / CLOSE-OUT Most FarmGate Timed Auction sales close racehorse style with extended bidding. What is Racehorse Style 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 into 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. BIDDING CLOSE & FOLLOW-UP After the clock has gone to “ENDED” and no bidding has occurred for 5 mins the computer will declare the sale finished. Following the close, typically within 24 hours of the sale close, the sale consignor will contact all winning bidders to arrange payment, transfer of pedigrees and delivery/pick up of your lot. Or as the winning bidding you can contact the sale consignor to confirm payment instructions. Please make sure that your account info is up-to-date and correct if you are the winning bidder of a lot as this is how the billing is sent to sale manager and/or sale consignor.
