Foursquare Farms 2021 Bull Sale

Page 1


In so many ways it was a delight to see the last day of 2020! The Covid world we live in at this time can be a tough one to navigate through and continue to be unified as a Community, Neighbors, Friends and Family. Keep on Persevering! Sometimes it may be through the hardest times that we can learn our most valuable lessons! As Bull sale season approaches, we would like to thank all our buyers and bidders and all who attended our sale last year and made it a great success! We look forward to working with you all again in this coming year and hope that the friendships that we have created will continue to grow as we work together to provide you with the best breeding stock for your individual operations.

We have been raising purebred Gelbvieh for 21 years now and are excited for the future of the breed and the growth of the industry. The past 2 years we have teamed up with Bullseye Feeds to feed our bulls with a more wholistic approach focusing on overall herd health and utilizing on farm products as much as possible! Along with their help we are targeting a 3.5lb/day gain over a longer amount of time rather than the Bull Test approach. We feed our bulls a high fiber, high roughage, total mixed ration of hay, silage and ground grain along with a high concentrated mineral pack designed for the specific ration and pen of bulls! We feel that growing our bulls out this way will ensure the highest rate of success and longevity of our Bulls!

The focus of our herd starts with the Mama cow! We do our best to raise and maintain the highest quality females that we can in our operation. You will quickly realize that correct structure, excellent udders, moderate cow size, good temperament and overall production are our measuring stick of who stays and who goes! We aim to replace 30-35 females every year while maintaining a herd of 150 Females to calve each year. The other ½ is the working Herdsires! We do our

best to source the highest quality Herd Bulls as we need. Our focus is moderate BW to Explosive growth while maintaining structural correctness, excellent Phenotype! The Bulls we have on offer this year are an exceptional group of bulls that we feel can supply whatever need you have to address in your herd. Whether you need Calving ease, explosive growth for calves for the fall run or are looking to breed up some exceptional replacement females, there is a bull that will work for you! Again, this year we have tested all the bulls for the horned/ Polled gene and the results will be available mid February and will be posted sale day!

We know that 2020-21 has and continues to present challenges to gathering as a community of beef producers. The current health problems are concerning from an economic and social perspective, but as beef producers we will continue to press on. We understand that some folks need to be more cautious and to for that reason we would encourage you to come to the farm for a tour through the bull pen prior to the Sale. RISER SEEDS LTD. has sponsored a DRAW for a $500 gift certificate towards any of their forage seed products, for each one that visits the farm to look through the bulls before the sale day!

In the Fall of 2017, we were so excited to purchase a 50% walking right of this Elite Herdsire!

Right combination is one of the softest made purebred bulls yet maintaining a clean made look. He has a beautiful head, with nice neck extension and is very structurally correct. His Excellent Dam SLC Lora 164Y has produced multiple seed stock herd sires! Right Combination will add growth and dramatically improve phenotype of his progeny.

We are super happy with the calves he is giving us, man oh man does he ever stamp them! This year we calved out our first set of his females and they look to be a great set of up-and-coming beef raising machines! Right Combination has set all kinds of show records being the first 3-time National Champion Bull "Wining at all three major livestock shows" 2016 National Champion @ CWA, 2017 National Champion @ NWSS, 2017 National Champion @ FFI. Top 10 finalist in the supreme at CWA, Top 5 at Farm Fair International.

Forte as we call him is a Davidson Max 48D son that we retained! We really appreciated his disposition, overall mass and rib shape, along with an abundance of hair! He is easy calving and we are able to use him on both heifers and cows alike. You will notice his sire group right away with broad tops and a ton of middle and hair! We are extremely pleased with the calves that we are getting out of this new Herdsire!

C C

JRI Powerstroke is a bull that we purchased from Judd Ranch in the spring of 2014! These are his last set of natural born calves that we will have on offer. As an individual he had a 205 day weight of 815 and a YW of 1325 along with a yearling scrotal of 43cm and as a mature bull is 52cm! Powerstroke is one of the easiest calving Bulls in our program, consistently shortening gestation as well as keeping birth weights low! You will find that his calves are darker red and have added dimension through the rib and length of spine. Powerstroke has left a legacy of foundation females that have set our herd in the right direction for many years to come! We are very excited about the group of females of his that are working hard, raising the next generation of great Foursquare seedstock!

D D

In the Spring of 2019, we purchased JRI Protégé from Judd ranch in Kansas, as the second highest selling bull that year! There are just a couple of his bull calves in the offering as we used him just a little in his first year. The calves come easy and get up and grow! We are looking forward to his next set of calves that are hitting the ground right now. As an individual Protégé had an 87lb BW and grew to an impressive 801lb 205D weight!

Thank You to our 2020 buyers and everyone who attended the sale!

Understanding EPD’s

Calving ease direct (CED): Percent of unassisted births of a bull’s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd.

Milk (Milk): The genetic ability of a sire’s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight.

Calving ease maternal (CEM): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire’s first-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher’s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers.

Birth weight (BW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf.

Terms & Conditions...

Terms - The terms of the sale are cash or cheque payable at par at sale location unless satisfactory credit arrangements have been made prior to the sale. The right of property shall not pass until after settlement is made. We reserve the right to require a certified cheque as settlement before releasing any sale cattle. Should the purchaser fail to settle for his purchase, we reserve full power to resell the animal to the best advantage, either publicly or privately, without further notice. Any loss arising from such resale together with keep and all other expenses shall be payable by the defaulter. All settlements must be made with the clerks of the sale before any cattle will be released. The owners and sale staff have the right to refuse bids from anyone who has a previous record of default in payment and/or who has not made credit arrangements prior to the sale with the owners and/or sale management.

Bid - Every animal consigned to the sale must be sold by auction. No by-bidding will be permitted. Each animal will be sold to the highest bidder.

Disputes - In cases of disputes, bidding will be re-opened between the parties involved. If no further bid is made, the buyer will be the person from whom the auctioneer accepted the last bid. The auctioneer’s decision in such matters will be final.

Purchaser’s Risk - Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold. Announcements from the auction block will take precedence over printed matter in the catalogue. Buyers are therefore cautioned to pay attention to any such announcements.

Certificate of Registry - The proper registration or recordation paper, as the case may be, will be duly transferred and furnished to the buyer for each animal after settlement has been made.

Weaning weight (WW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.

Yearling weight (YW): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.

Total maternal (TM): An index that combines growth and milk information as a prediction of the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire’s daughters. As an index, this value is not reported with an accompanying accuracy. A greater TM value means a mother that returns comparatively higher weaning weights on her calves. TM Index = MK EPD + ½ WW EPD.

Shipping - Assistance will be given in making shipment after the sale, but sale management or seller assumes no risk. Expenses incurred are the responsibility of the purchaser. Purchasers are requested to furnish shipping instructions when making settlement.

Guarantee - All animals will carry standard breeding guarantee as specified by the applicable Canadian Breed Association. At no time shall the seller’s liability exceed the purchased price of the animal.

Exception to Guarantee - In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale, the guarantee shall be null and void. In the cases of bulls, they are guaranteed to breed naturally according to applicable Canadian Breed Association guarantee, but no guarantee is given that semen from any bull will freeze.

Health - It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine health requirements for importing any animal into his province or state.

Accidents - Although every precaution will be taken to protect the safety and comfort of buyers, neither the sale management, auctioneer, or association assumes any responsibility in this matter and disclaims any liability legal or otherwise in the event of accident of loss of property.

Rights and Obligations - The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between the buyer and the seller and be equally binding to both. Resale of animals following purchase in this sale shall constitute a separate transaction and the rights and the terms and conditions for this sale do not cover obligations of the two parties connected thereto.

US Buyers The standard terms and conditions apply with the exception that the seller is responsible for cross border health testing.
