Online Embryo Sale Tuesday, September 28, 2021

We welcome you to the third Bobcat Angus embryo auction!

These donors have produced some of our top sires in the recent years including Musgrave Big Sky, Bobcat Blue Sky, and JMB Traction 292. The matings listed are not chosen off fads or a numbers game. We have strategically chosen these sires to advance our production-based program which is strongly based on phenotype and performance.

Balanced EPD’s play a role in our selection, with a strong emphasis on performance and maternal EPDs. Carcass traits and $B have become more important as we look to increase the marketability of our commercial cattle. It is these same principles that have also kept us in the commercial cattle business for over 35 years.

We hope that you will find that these embryos will add a positive difference to your program.

Through the strong EPDs and proven performance of our genetics, we are confident these genetics will increase your marketability in your program as we have seen in our own registered business.

We hope you can join us on Anguslive.com September 28, 2021. Please feel free to contact Bryan or Cole anytime via phone or text. We look forward to helping you find the right genetics to add value to your herd!

Sincerely, Bryan Ratzburg Cole Ratzburg
