Thank you for your interest in our first sale!

Dorran Cattle Co. heifers have been selected from astute cattle breeders across Alberta and Saskatchewan. Sires of these females have been sold through Dorran Marketing Inc. auctioned sales, what we believe are breeders of integrity and detail oriented in terms of record keeping, culling and purchasing quality new genetics for continued herd improvement. Heifers are identified by their Dorran Cattle Co. number and penned in groups of two to four head by type and calving dates.

Heifers were fed a high quality, free-choice hay in the spring and AI synchronized to the calving ease, maternal giant PF Oklahoma 6625. Now deceased, Oklahoma is recognized in the Angus breed for his stacked EPD profile including in the top 2% for Calving Ease and top 7% for Birth Weight and Weaning Weight, a combination rare to find. Oklahoma calves are visually unique with strong structural correctness, smooth front ends and extremely balanced in their look. We know you will be happy with calves out of these commercial bred heifers with steer calves having the look that will catch your eye and heifers that are sure to be the replacement kind with two of the very best donors in the industry within their lineage.

Close to 70% of heifers stuck to their AI date. For the remaining, heifers were pasture exposed to two Oklahoma sons from Anchorage Farms, Hanley, SK/Olds, AB – Anchorage Boone Pickens 0008 and Anchorage Lawton 9063.

Estimated calving dates have been provided, but please keep in mind that Oklahoma is considered a shorter gestation sire. We recommend watching these heifers prior to the estimated 283-day gestation length.

This group of bred heifers are quiet. We hand watered them in the spring and check on them daily with our boys. Our boys have been chute side every time we’ve worked them (and if you know our boys, they are a busy pair).

We trust these heifers are going to make exceptional cows for their new owners.

We’ve done the homework; we look forward to the fun you are going to have with them!

Ryan & Cassie Dorran Heifers have been on native pasture since the first of June and had free choice Bulls Eye Mineral.

Each year we are going to offer our two year old bull in our bred female sale! Affectionately known by our family as “Pistol Pete”, we are very happy with how this Oklahoma son has matured. Purchased in 2019 at the Anchor B/Anchorage Bull Sale for his calving ease and birth weight numbers, Pete has been an awesome breeding bull for us the past two years. He’s flawless in his feet, smooth fronted and structurally sound. His dam, Belvin Lady Blossom 70’17, was the high seller in the 2017 Belvin Angus Female Sale and has a lineage of great cows known for foot and udder strength with high production value. His top side includes the now deceased AI sire Oklahoma, a maternal and calving ease giant in the Angus breed. Pete has calves on the ground in Saskatchewan that look great, and we know he will make an excellent breeding piece at his new home!
