Herd HealthAll cattle will sell with proper interstate healthpapers. All females were calfhood vaccinated. Allsale cattle have been vaccinated with IBR, BVD,P13, Vibro Letpo 5 and eight-way black-leg. All bullshave been fertility checked and all heifers are repro-duction tract examined. All sell guaranteed breeders.All eligible cattle will be brucellosis tested.Bull CareYour yearling bull is a major investment. Experiencehas shown us that yearling bulls can function verywell even under harsh environments. You can counton them to breed 20-25 females depending on theconditions. We have the following recommendations.1. If possible, run your yearling bulls separate fromolder bulls during their first breeding season.2. Make sure that your bulls gain weight in the fallafter the breeding season, before winter.3. Feed energy supplementation (grain) beyond sim-ply grass and protein to your yearling bulls. Avoidfeeding the young bulls in the same pasture witholder or horned bullsSimmental EPD ExplanationsCalving Ease Direct (CE-H) - predicts the averagedifference in ease with which a sire's calves will beborn when bred to first-calf heifers. Expressed aspercentage of unassisted births with a HIGHERvalue indicating greater calving ease.Birth Weight (BW) - expressed in pounds and pre-dicts the average difference that can be expected inan animal's offspring when compared with anotheranimal in the same genetic evaluation. The LOWERthe number the better here.Weaning Weight (WW) - expressed in pounds andpredicts the average differences in weight that canbe expected between the progeny of animals in thesame genetic evaluation of 205 days of age. TheHIGHER the WW number, the more pound weaned.Yearling Weight (YW) - Like Birth and WeaningWeight EPDs, Yearling Weight EPDs are expressedin pounds and predict the average differences thatcan be expected between progeny of animals at oneyear of age. Like weaning weight, the HIGHER thenumber, the more pounds at yearling time.Maternal Calving Ease (MCEH) - predicts the aver-age ease with which a sire's daughters will calve asfirst-calf heifers compared to the daughters of anoth-er sire in the same evaluation. Expressed as per-centage of unassisted births. A HIGHER numberhere indicates a higher percentage of unassistedbirths.
Maternal Milk (MM) - expressed as pound of calfweaned by a bull's daughters. Reflects the averagedifferences in weaning weight than can be expectedin grandprogeny due to the milking ability of a bull'sdaughters.Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW) - This EPD valuepredicts the difference in average 205-day weight ofbull's daughters' calves compared to calves fromdaughters of all other bulls evaluated. The evaluationreflects both the maternal ability of the bull's daugh-ters and the growth potential of their calves. Whencomparing maternal weaning weight EPDs of twosires, the larger maternal weaning weight EPD indi-cates heavier weaning weights due to daughters'ability to produce heavier calves. Maternal WeaningWeight EPD is calculated by: MWW EPD = MMKEPD + 0.5 (WW EPD).EPDs for Carcass TraitsExplanations of the ultrasound measurements are asfollows:MarblingThe difference in marbling score expected in a bull’soffspring compared to the offspring of other bulls inthe population.Yield GradeThe difference in yeild grade expected in a bull’s off-spring compared to the offspring of other bulls in thepopulation. Next sire summary YG EPD’s will beused. These are figured by dividing the percent retailcuts EPDs by -2.3.Carcass WeightThe difference in carcass weight expected in a bull’soffspring compared to the offspring of other bulls inthe population.All-Purpose Index (API)Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (bredto both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows)with the portion of their daughters required to main-tain herd size retained and the remaining heifers andsteers put on feed and sold grade and yeild.Terminal Index (TI)Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with alloffspring put on feed and sold grade and yield.
