WELCOME TO THE DEER RIVER RANCHING BLACK ANGUS BULL SALE Our family runs a purebred operation under the name of Deer River Angus, as well as a commercial Angus Herd. Our A.I. program started in 1966 and through the years we have seen many advancements in the cattle industry. During those years we have tested many breeds only to find that in all categories Angus worked best for us. In 1985 we purchased our first purebred females, they have complemented our full blood Angus cattle ever since. For the past 25 years we have offered our genetics for customers at our annual bull sale and our Angus herd has earned a reputation of excellence among cattle producers, feedlots and packing plants alike. Detailed records as well as performance and carcass data enables us to track our animals through all stages of production and to make a complete program.

We calve mid April, May and June our first emphasis is calving ease, we need to get those calves on the ground and going by themselves. Our motto is “The mother cows need to work for us, not us for them.” This has worked very well for us as we are now able to produce good quality bulls for your herds. Our sale bulls are individually selected based on conformation, temperament, performance and calving records, as well as the genetic potential of the desirable traits we select for.

We are constantly testing new genetics, while using proven sires on our herd. By doing so, we always have new bulls that are proven when it is time to change blood lines.

In our quest to find the perfect low maintenance cow for the commercial cattleman we have stressed easy fleshing, easy calving, good hair and good udders. We breed our bulls for short gestation length, low birth weight, sound feet and legs, and top performance.

We are continually improving our Angus Cattle.

We hope you enjoy the sale.

Breeding Guarantee All bulls are sound, right and sell with the responsible breeder guarantee of satisfaction. In the event of any unlikely dispute the regular terms and conditions standard with the Canadian Angus Association shall apply. If there are any problems please notify us immediately. Should any bull fail to be a satisfactory breeder, he needs to be returned to us and will be replaced with an animal of equal value and quality or a credit given towards the purchase of another bull. Any Questionable Bull needs to be returned, any bull shipped without prior approval may not be eligible for Guarantee.

In Herd Breeding Interest – (NON revenue sharing interest) Deer River Ranching Ltd reserves the right to collect semen, for in herd use only, on any bull in the sale. This is the same as in past sales, but with a CAA bylaw change, we will remain on the registration papers as an owner. Semen will be collected at our expense and will be done at the new owner’s convenience.

How to read EPD's Calving Ease Maternal indicates the percentage difference of unassisted births or greater calving ease in first calf daughters of a particular sire compared to the daughters of another sire. The higher the value the greater the calving ease in first calf daughters.

Birth Weight BW is related to calving ease. Larger birthweight EPD's generally indicate more calving difficulty.

Progeny of JUSTICE 455G are expected to weigh 5.1 lbs more than the progeny of BRILLLIANCE 9G Weaning Weight WW EPD's reflects pre-weaning growth. Progeny of JUSTICE 455G can be expected to average 13 lbs more at weaning than the progeny of BRILLIANCE 9G Yearling Weight YW EPD's reflect differences in the ADJ 365-day weigths for progeny and is the best estimate of total growth.

Progeny of JUSTICE 455G can be expected to average 30 lbs more as yearlings than progeny of BRILLIANCE 9G. Scrotal Circumference SC is expressed in cm. and is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of an average sire.

Heifer Pregnancy the percent probability in a bull's daughters ability to conceive and calve as two year olds. The heifer born from BRILLIANCE 522C have a 3% higher probability of breeding & calving than of PINEBANK 169e Milk Milk EPD 's reflects the milking ability of the sire's daughter expressed in pounds of calf weaned. The milking ability of daughters of Western Cut 481G should contribute 6 lbs more to the WW of their calves when compared to daughters of BRILLIANCE 9G

Calving Extra Easy Calving Ease Maternal

Bull development at Deer River Ranching is based around a two year old program for ranching conditions.

Cows are winter grazed on native pasture thus only bulls from efficient cows on high forage diets will make the cut. Yearlings are fed to maximize muscular enhancement and are fed a balanced ration to optimize the pasture conditions. As two year olds, development is done where the capacity to consume forages to maintain body condition is critical.We cannot overlook the fact that without adequate sugars testicular development would suffer, however bulls are kept lean for pasture breeding.
