It all started with one cow, and a

P OLL ED BRAHMAN D REA M .

You have probably heard the age-old saying, “If you can dream it, you can achieve it.” The most important part? The comma. In other words, the pause in this phrase carries the most weight. It represents all the miles in between the initial dream and the final destination—the journey.

Ten years ago, Mike purchased a pretty, Polled baby doll heifer from Carlos Guerra. He set out to Linn, Texas that day on another mission, and when he got back to the ranch and told Benton the news, he asked him, “Well, what are we going to do with just one?”

The rest, as they say, is history.

A spark that laid kindling in Mike’s heart from all the years he worked for Clifford Ranch growing up was reignited, and his dream of one day re-entering the registered Brahman business became a reality. Over the years, Mike and Crickett, along with their son Benton, built a genetic base of Polled Brahman cattle that has received worldwide recognition for the ranch.

When Benton’s wife, Brooke, joined the team in 2019, the duo collectively ramped up marketing efforts, resulting in a larger domestic customer base that spans from the East Coast to the West Coast, as well as the Midwest. The England’s also added Thailand to their international clientele in 2020, with the goal of expanding into more countries very soon.

Despite all of the challenges of the past year due to the pandemic, England Cattle Co. successfully hosted their first-ever production sale on March 21, 2020. The first annual “Brahmans on the Rio” Production Sale featured 20 total lots, and grossed an excess of $140,000, with an average of $8,775 across 14 live cattle lots. An impressive feat for a registered cattle operation to achieve in less than a decade of production.

England Cattle Co. is respected around the world as one of the most progressive Polled Brahman operations, with their genetics spanning across the United States, along with Africa, Australia, Mexico and Thailand. In 2021, England Cattle Co. was recognized as the No. 1 “Brahman Operation with the Most Polled and Scurred Registrations” in the USA, published in the April Edition of The Brahman Journal. In addition, four of the Top 10 Producing Polled Grey dams and three of the Top 10 Producing Polled Grey sires in the USA, to date, are owned or co-owned by England Cattle Co. Celebrating 10 years in the business is both a humbling and rewarding achievement. The journey to get here took years of hard work, trial and error, perseverance, and most of all, grit.

Looking back, the ups and downs of good weather years, followed by droughts, breeding success and ones that missed the mark, big wins and missed opportunities, etc. have all led to this moment and have helped define the course for the future.

As a family, we are excited to welcome you to our home in Mercedes, Texas, to share our elite genetics with you in a live sale format. As Brahman breeders, we are proud to present to you our completely POLLED offering, with some exciting new genetics that we believe will advance the breed as whole. We are cattle producers first, and Polled breeders second. Our main goal and the focus of our breeding program will always be centered around producing, in Mike’s words, “top-quality cattle for the cowman.” The fact that they are Polled is an added value for our customers.

Thank you to our fellow Brahman breeders, customers, business partners, industry leaders, friends and family who have supported us along this journey. We would not be where we are today without you, and we appreciate your part in helping us achieve our Polled Brahman dream. The best is yet to come!

I have been fortunate to have worked with a number of breeders over the years in selecting and hosting production sales. I have NEVER been turned loose to select the entire offering as I was this February in preparation for this sale.

In 2013, we purchased Madonna in the International Sale. She was 17 months old at the time. Mike saw her potential at an early age, and knew she would be the cow to build our program around. Her first flush produced +LMC Polled Passion 55/4, who was recently inducted into the prestigious Register of Renown. Her worth as a breeding piece is so valuable that 1/3 embryo interest in Madonna sold for $35,000 in our Brahmans on the Rio Production Sale last year. She is making waves not only here in the USA but also across the world. Recently, our friends at JRL Stud purchased Australian exclusivity on Madonna and her first embryos will be shipping overseas, very soon.

Full sisters to the 2016 Reserve International Champion Grey Female and Register of Renown Cow, +LMC Polled Passion 55/4! Only in a sale such as this would we offer the opportunity to pick between two of our most elite females. These two flushmate sisters are slightly different in their phenotype which makes this offer even more appealing.

No matter which heifer you select, you are buying a true breeding piece as this mating has produced 14 offspring that are impacting our program and many others across the country. The sire to these beautiful females is +LMC LF Ambassador 700/7 who is one of the few polled sires to reach the Register of Renown and ranks third lifetime for Polled show winners produced and number of calves registered. The dam to these females is LMC +S Polled Madonna who fetched $35,000 for 1/3 interest in our sale last year. Madonna is a proven producer as validated by her ranking as the #3 Polled Dam in the USA for number of registered progeny, and is a daughter of LMC WFF Pistolero M130 making her the result of the “Golden Cross” of Ambassador x Pistolero.

It should also be noted that in the bottom of Madonna’s pedigree is the Vanguard Sire (+)JDH Datapack Manso and the 2000 National Champion, and proven donor, +JDH Marri Holly Manso. To complete this progressive package, the performance profile of these queens or “Reinas” chart positive for 15 of the 16 measured economic traits.

ECC LG Polled Teresa 454/0 is a halter broke show heifer that is powerfully built, big bodied and heavy structured. In addition to her outstanding phenotype, she comes with a pedigree that is open to be bred to many of today’s popular sires and is backed by one of the most maternally oriented female lines in the world. Several years ago, we purchased a large group of replacement females from the historic Rancho Meba Pavitos (Erik Abrahammson and Family) in Mexico. We made this investment with our good friend Octavio Garcia of La Gaviota Cattle Company, LLC because these cattle were outstanding, having some of the best udders and fertility that we had ever seen. The dam to Polled Teresa is one of these Meba females. She is sired by our junior herd sire, ECC Polled Rio King 620 who in his first calf crop has produced some very impressive progeny. ECC Polled King 620 is sired by our patriarch LMC Polled Authority 115/0 and out of D Bar Miss 905/1, resulting in this top sire combining the most proven Polled and performance-oriented genetics in the breed. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a female that is Polled, pretty and powerful!

We love our D Bar cows due to their maternal traits and performance, and the dam to Polled Nan is no exception.

Polled Ice Man combines the proven genetics of LMC Polled Sambo 45/0 and LMC LF Polled Elma 214/4 who were both recently recognized as the #4 Polled Sire and Polled Dam in the USA for progeny registered.

The sire to these two herd sire prospects is LMC Polled Authority 115/0 who is our foundation sire, and as a result of being so successful, was recognized as ranking in the Top 10 of Polled sires in the USA for siring champions, and number of progeny registered.

ECC Polled Rio Queen 402/0 is an outstanding heifer from a phenotypical, pedigree and performance standpoint. She is a moderate framed, deep bodied and beefy Polled heifer that would be a phenomenal addition to any program. In addition to her outstanding build, she is sired by LMC Polled Sambo 45/0 who is considered by many to be one of the most proven Polled bulls in the breed and as a result ranks as the #4 Polled Pull of all time in the USA for progeny registered. Polled Sambo is credited with siring over 100 offspring to include ECC El Caporal 301, Mr. 4F Polled Ice Man3/6 and numerous other influential animals. The dam to 402/0 combines six Register of Renown or Maternal Performance Sires. As a result of her outstanding personal performance and proven pedigree, 402/0 ranks in the Top 1/2 of the breed for Growth and Top 1/3 of the breed for Marbling and Ribeye Area. As a prospective buyer, you should consider the value that 402/0 offers. She certainly “debunks” the theory that POLLED cattle do not have enough bone, volume and muscle, as well as, offers the hardest to obtain, most economically relevant traits.

First time offering! This sale will mark the first time that we will offer a semen package on ECC Polled Maverick 302/9. This bull has been a favorite of everyone who has seen him over the past two years during his show career. Recently, due to his superiority, JRL Stud of Australia chose Maverick as the sire that they wanted to influence their elite herd, and purchased Australian exclusivity. Some who have seen him think that he is the most complete bull that we have ever raised as he is rugged made, high volumed, big topped, think ended and nicely balanced with a clean sheath. You have seen his full sister who sells as Lot 3, which only confirms the consistency of this mating. Polled Maverick is sired by #Bardia Ambassador (semen package sells as Lot 20) and is out of Miss Double A 468/7, one of our top donors, who has 27 progeny to include LMC ECC LF Polled Lolo 127/4, ECC Polled Comandante 749, ECC Polled Harry 353/9, and ECC Polled William 352/9, who are all influential in our program. We are extremely high on Polled Maverick and excited to be able to see him influence other progressive programs in the USA and worldwide. At this time, this will be the only opportunity to purchase Polled Maverick semen in 2021.

Several years ago we saw Mr. 4F Polled Ice Man 3/6 at the International Show on our friend Louie Flores’ show string. We were highly impressed with the amount of bone, thickness and length that this bull possessed. After inquiring, we found out that he was sired by LMC Polled Sambo 45/0 and out of LMC LF Polled Elma 214/4 who both rank #4 for Polled animals with progeny registered. If you studied this offering, and read our thoughts on the cattle, you realize that we are extremely high on both Sambo and Elma so it only made sense to partner with Louie on this great bull. We are offering the first offspring to ever sell by this sire in Lots 5 and 7 in this sale. We are extremely happy with the progeny of Ice Man as he stamps them just like he is made as they are growthy, big boned, long, deep and heavy muscled. The Ice Man semen is no longer going to be sold outside of special offerings such as this sale. Do not miss out on one of the most progressive opportunities to purchase semen on a sire that we know is destined for greatness!

In 2016 we traveled to Australia for the World Brahman Congress. While there we visited a bull stud and saw #Bardia Ambassador 170.

We were highly impressed with the bull due to his structure, muscle, length, pigmentation and overall balance. We then saw some of his progeny at the show and knew that even though we had a heavy influence of his sire in our program, Bardia could still play a role. After receiving the semen in the USA, Bardia was named the 2017 Australian Brahman Sire of the Year and then in 2018 sired the BEEF Week Champion Female. We have used Bardia on a limited basis (14 registered progeny) due to our heavy Ambassador influence but several of his offspring have been outstanding to include ECC Polled Maverick 302/9, ECC Polled Rio Queen 483/0 who sells as Lot 3, and a sale feature in our 2020 sale, ECC Polled Rebecca 108/8. This is only the third time that this semen has been sold in the USA and will only be available in special offerings such as this sale.
