Female Sale
Tuesday, November 28, 2023 • 1:00 pm ( cst ) At the Ranch, Arapahoe, NE On behalf of all the contributers of the Maternal Merit Sale, it is with great excitement that we invite you to this sale. As cattlemen we understand the challenges of finding high quality replacement females that move your herd forward, therefore we strive to set the standard in the industry, not only for high quality females but do the culling and the strict breeding protocols to offer the customer what isn’t easily found. Every female in this sale is backed by the “Reputation Only” motto. These females have been selected from over 2000+ contemporaries to get here. You will not find females bred to this elite set of ABS bulls in short calving intervals everyday. The market looks exciting in the future and the importance of a strong female base in your herd will compound your profitability to come. Please feel free to contact any of the producers with any questions about the sale. See you at the sale.

WARNER BEEF GENETICS Balancer females that are sourced
from our own commercial and registered Balancer herd and from top Warner Beef bull customers. We take great pride in keeping our cowherd aligned with the needs of today’s commercial cattlemen. The females will carry 25%50% Gelbvieh blood, most of these heifers are sired by bulls that are 3/8 to ½ Gelbvieh. Understanding the balance between maternal efficiency and performance is our highest priority. Heifers sell bred to BAR Dynamic, Beiber Energize and cleaned up to calving ease Balancer bulls. Warner Beef- Dan Warner 308.962.6511
HERMES LIVESTOCK- BALDY HEIFERS These fancy heifers
are both home-raised and purchased. Bred to the ABS sire Ruggles Charisma. The Hermes Livestock baldies are bred specifically for the commercial cattlemen. Originating out of an exceptional black angus herd these heifers are raised and developed on the Northeastern Colorado plains. Using both A.I. and natural service, carefully selected Hereford genetics are used to sire these heifers that will make exceptional easy fleshing cows, that are extremely fertile, with the longevity everyone expects from the F1 Female. The purchased heifers originate from two large ranches that outsource all their strictly black angus replacement females, and service only to Hoffman Hereford sires from Thedford, NE. This means that these heifers are sorted out of 400 head of F1 heifers from each ranch that do not retain their own replacements. Hermes Livestock- Anton Hermes 970.554.0996
HERMES LIVESTOCK- ANGUS HEIFERS These exceptional heifers come right out of the replacement pen. Bred to the very popular ABS sire Tehama Patriarch. They carry a lot of Basin Angus, Sitz Angus, & Hoffman Angus genetics, and are heifers from proven cow families. They will be a great addition to anyone’s commercial cattle herd. They have excellent feet, udders, and dispositions that come in an extremely attractive package. They should raise heavy muscled, powerful calves that will tip the scales for many years. Hermes Livestock- Anton Hermes 970.554.0996 NATIVE PRAIRIE GENETICS The Nilhas cowherd is second to none for quality. I have spent several hours on this ranch and
can personally attest to the quality and consistency of this program. High quality, maternally focused cattle that are bred to thrive on native pasture and crop residues with little supplementation. Tyrel has always sourced elite herdbulls with many costing $20K. AI is also used to get the very best genetics infused into their program. Tyrel has a great eye for cattle that work in real world and not just on paper. Nilhas’ maintain a closed cowherd with a focus on fertility, forage ability and cow power. These are real world genetics that will add value to any cowherd in the country. Heifers sell bred to Native Prairie Genetics’ resident herdsires. Native Prairie Genetics- Tyrel Nilhas 785.623.3570
VALHALLA RANCH This tremendous set of red females return again as the sisters to what has been offered here before. Selected from a large contemporary group each year I assure you there is not a group of heifers that are sorted and culled on more in the country. This truly is the best of the best. These females are raised in short grass country and will thrive anywhere with little supplementation. These heifers have originated from Wells Ag in KS and Thompson Ranch in CO. Performance and maternal strength is bred in this great set of reputation females. Valhalla Ranch- Don Maclennan 303.906.4374 JOHNSON RANCH Long time bull customers of Cedar Top Ranch and Warner Beef Genetics. Kurt and Paul maintain a high reputation for high quality feeder cattle and replacement females in the Nebraska sandhills. The herdbull battery at Johnson Ranch would rival that of any seedstock operation in the country. This is a disciplined cowherd with performance and fertility a priority in selection. Johnson Ranch- Kurt Johnson 402.312.8341
You will find the females in lots of 3-10 head groups. They will sell in these groups sorted by origin, size, breeding date and color. The buyer will have the option to roll to additional lots predetermined by sale order if they have the winning bid. This offering fits any buyer’s needs from just a few females to load lots.
