Welcome We want to welcome you to our 8th Annual Maine Difference Bull and Open heifer Sale held at DCTC in Veteran, Alberta. We continue to hold Canada’s largest offering of 2 year Old home raised Maine Bulls and offer a strong set of open Maine X Yearling Heifers, that are home raised and sourced from our customers in the fall. It’s not hard to find a sale that offers Simmental, Angus or Charolais bulls but finding a public offering of Maine Genetics is not that easy. Our hats off to these other breeds with the promotion they do for their breeds and they back it up with the quality product they produce. We are striving for that too, and we see the results in the market place where Maine Cattle are selling & bringing premium dollars from calves, to yearlings or fat cattle. They will perform on feed, marble and grade with the best of any breed, and they are catching on and becoming more popular every year. Our bulls are born predominately in May and June out on grass, grazed until end of Oct. weaned and backgrounded on a silage based balance ration over the winter, then turned back out on pasture to graze and exercise until late fall, where they are brought back into pens and again are fed a balanced ration of predominately silage until sale time in April. They are not pets, they’ve never been creep fed, they are raised like bulls should be, out on grass, foraging for their feed and exercising. Lots of years it is dry but they aren’t supplemented, they have to survive like everyone else so they are easy fleshing and very hardy. They are grown out so when you buy them you know what you are getting. They will be semen tested, vaccinated, plus given fusogard, and are ready to go to work for you. We are really proud of the set of heifers on offer, as it reflects what we have been selling as bulls. These heifers are really broody, deep sided with lots of hair. They will make awesome females to enhance anyone’s herd. A real opportunity to either build a cow herd or add to your existing one. If you are looking for the great Maine heifers, you won’t find a larger offering than what we have assembled. All the heifers have been palpated by a veterinarian and have their pre-breeding vaccinations done, ready to be taken home and bred. Come early on April 4th to view the cattle and have lunch with us at noon. We will be offering the sale broadcast on DLMS this year to help those unable to be in Veteran to have an opportunity to view and make purchases on line. Hope to see you there April 4,2020 The Deagle’s
