IVF FLUSH TO THE

CHOICE OF MOON CREEK DONORS

Selling a choice of the 10 Moon Creek Donors to perform an IVF flush. The buyer will be guaranteed a minimum of six transferable embryos to result in at least three pregnancies. No cap will be placed on any embryos in excess of the 6 minimum. Moon Creek will be responsible for transportation to Trans Ova and the buyer will take care of the flush and semen cost with Trans Ova. If the donor happens to take more than one cycle to fulfill the minimum Moon Creek will cover the next flush cost.

The donors in this stable represent a pinpointed approach on building powerful phenotype behind the best cow families in the country. The Erica and Isabel cows fit each other perfectly for type and kind to deliver consistent results of performance cattle with the right build. These two families are highly proven and are as popular today as ever in the breed. Take your choice of the proven matriarchs or daughters. Blackcap 209 is an addition of a new family that generationally stacks sires of the type and kind that we prefer while having added heifer pregnancy and marbling. You will find that this donor pool that you can tap into is the backbone of our herd that is a very high percentage of embryo transfer.

Here is the first shot at the impressive offspring of Don Julio. In 2023 only 10 straws of Don Julio was sold, for an average of $7,500 each. This heifer exemplifies what we have seen so far in the calves with a flashy look and great muscle expression. This female reads an excellent EPD line and excel for marbling and ribeye combination. Her donor dam was the top selling open heifer of the 2023 Musgrave Angus sale. Selected for her generation’s deep pedigree of correct type and kind with added performance and maternal capabilities, we are excited about her.

The first of its kind chance to get hands on a Don Julio son. Stretching over the 400 $C barrier this sharp made and well built bull calf has a bright future. With only ten straws of his sire released to the public at $7,500 each there will be very limited offspring of this exciting stud that blends big data to super phenotype. This bull is so level in his EPD profile that his total average for 31 traits and index’s is in the top 20% of the breed. We feel that this calf has the potential to be a real breeding piece and that is why we offer him at this age. Ten percent of purchase price to be paid after sale. Balance is due when he passes a BSE and freezes semen. For a guarantee to withstand we would ask that the buyer purchases insurance on the bull. Once the down payment and insurance has been secured the buyer may take possession. Selling full interest.

Moon Creek Erica M1807 ET

What a bomb proof pedigree and EPD profile from this wedge made female with maternal written all over her. L1639 is the full sister to our third top selling open heifer though last years female sale at $12,000. 813F is responsible for a substantial portion of this sale for good reason. Her AI service is the $150,000 calving ease and phenotype favorite of many in the 24 spring sale season. AI to Poss Ultra on 4-1-24.

The first chances at live offspring from our elite herd sire, Legitimate. This female is snappy looking with top 10% foot score EPDs. Take advantage of her maternal look and pedigree with a top 15% $Beef index. We like what we see in her sisters as well.

Moon Creek Clover K1415 ET

Here is a phenotype favorite on the farm. K1415 is ideal in her type and kind with an excellent pedigree. The Clover cow family is growing at Baldridge Performance Angus and here as well when females come along like this. Its hard to part with her but we will be retaining her Spring born heifer calf to move forward with. This female dots all the I’s on paper and ranks in the top 1% for $C, Claw, and Docility. With great carcass, performance, and maternal traits on paper and in person she leaves little to be desired. What a fantastic way to add a new cow family that still brings together major known sires like Clarity, Reno and CC&7. Selling open and ready to flush.

Isabel G795 is a daughter of the $160,000 powerhouse D753 whose daughters have been standouts in Baldridge sales. The added rib and body capacity of the D753 daughters is consistent and combined with the excellent maternal power of Confidence Plus it’s a perfect combo. G795 is one of our young donors with big promise and these two heifer pregnancies by Kindred and Grant will have great value in pedigree, data, and phenotype. Heifer pregnancy due 1-8-25.
