Leachman East Coast Stabilizer Sale Selling 50 Age Advantaged 18-Month-Old Stabilizer Bulls Plus 40 head of AI bred, December calving heifers (see page 19) Saturday, Nov. 16th • East Carolina Agriculture & Education Center 1175 Kingsboro Rd., Rocky Mount, NC

Stabilizers make great cows

A 1,250 lb. Top 1% $Ranch five-year-old Stabilizer cow calved at 23 months, has bred and calved in the first cycle four times with a 365 day calving interval, and has weaned an average of 698 lbs per calf.

Most profit minded ranchers increasingly see the key to profitability as controlling costs while still increasing performance. For them, the key cow herd profitability factors are: • Moderating feed intake so you can run more cows on the same land.

• Increasing fertility so that more cows bring in a calf every year.

• Improving longevity to reduce the costs of turnover and depreciation.

• Adding hybrid vigor to increase pounds weaned per cow exposed.

Buying high growth, high carcass, purebred bulls that have been selected for maximum output will not build a low cost, high profit cowherd.

Leachman’s $Ranch index will move your herd in the right direction on all of these factors. Our $Profit index will help you improve your cows and make steers that earn premiums.

One Year Guarantee!

Leachman Cattle of Colorado is offering a one year guarantee on all bulls that we sell. This guarantee will cover your purchased bull(s) against death, injury, infertility, and loss of use. If, during the first year from purchase, you lose the use of your Leachman bull for whatever reason, we will give you a credit towards the purchase of a new bull. We only ask that your herd veterinarian provide a written statement describing the death, injury, or infertility. If the bull in question can be salvaged, we would like you to keep the salvage value, and a credit will be issued, less the salvage amount you receive for the bull. If the bull is turned out for breeding, then the credit will be given at 75% of the original purchase value (less any salvage value). All claims must be made within 1 year from the date of purchase and cannot exceed the greater of 2 bulls per invoice or 15% of the total invoice.

Example 1: Your $5,000 bull dies before you turn him out to breed. You receive a full credit of $5,000. (Purchase Price - $0 Salvage - $0 Use).

Example 2: Your $5,000 bull injures his scrotum after you pull him from the cows. You sell him for $1000 in salvage. You receive a credit of $2,750 ($5000 purchase - $1000 salvage - $1250 usage).

Requirements for claims: 1.

All claims must be made within 365 days of purchase.

2.

A veterinary statement regarding the circumstances is required.

3.

A verbal agreement from Leachman Cattle of Colorado is required prior to a bull being sold for salvage. Documentation of the salvage value of the bull, including identification of the bull on the sale barn ticket, that corresponds to the bulls Leachman identifications (ear tag or metal clip) is also required.

This credit can be used for the purchase of bulls, females, semen, and/or embryos from Leachman Cattle of Colorado. If the credit is not used within 24 months of the date of issuance, then it will expire.

Note: Guarantee will be revoked on all bulls that are not paid for within 30 days of invoice date.

Talley Farms’ Steers Top Southeastern Market

On January 9th, 2019, Talley Farms sold their 875 weight, natural, GAP, steers for $153.50.

CattleFax reports that the southeastern average price for a 750 wt steer was $139.33 that week.

Assuming a $6/cwt slide the market for a 875 wt steer would have been $131.83.

Talley’s Earned a Premium of $190/head!

We wish to thank the crew at FPL/Chatel Farms for purchasing these Leachman-influenced calves.

$PROFIT

TM

Are all small cows really efficient? There seems to be a big disconnect in today’s beef industry.

On sale day we want heavy, high quality steers to pay the bills. The rest of the time we want efficient cows to keep our costs as low as possible. Simply selecting for smaller cows with no regard for feed efficiency is not the answer.

Likewise, selecting for shear growth with disregard for cost is just as poor of a strategy. The best way to make your cowherd truly efficient, and your calf crop earn more, is to use Leachman $Profit™. This is the only index in the industry that works on both sides of the ledger (production AND cost). Cows that work! Steers that pay!

How $Profit works:

What traits are included in $Profit:

Our simulation model then factors in all of the effects on both income and expense to come up with a net profit figure for each bull. $Profit allows you to compare any two bulls and calculate the difference in profit that they are expected to generate in your herd. Let’s compare a $10,000 $Profit bull to $6,000 $Profit bull (the average 2008 born Angus bull). The predicted difference between the bulls is $4,000 or about $40 per calf. $Profit works for us and it will work for you too.

Some traits are not so easily characterized for $Profit. Milk, for example, is a good thing until you get too much. When over +25, milk EPD has a more negative effect on fertility than it has a positive effect on weaning weight. There are a few traits not yet included in $Profit: longevity, structure, and disposition.

These traits are important but difficult to express in dollars.

$Profit assumes that the average commercial bull will have 100 progeny over its lifetime. The model assumes that you keep 30% of your heifers as replacements and that you retain ownership on the remainder of the calves through finishing and sell on a grid. We realize that many don’t retain ownership, but doesn’t it make the most sense to select from birth all the way to slaughter?

Feedlots have already proven their willingness to pay premiums for superior Leachman sired calves.

$Profit includes nearly every trait that impacts profitability.

The effect of most traits on profit is fairly simple to understand.

Here is the list of what is included and its effect: Revenue Traits ▪▪ Calving ease = more calves ▪▪ Weaning and Yearling EPD = more weight ▪▪ Fertility (days to conception) = more weight and more calves ▪▪ Carcass weight = worth more up to 1050 lbs.

▪▪ Marbling = valued based on grid premiums ▪▪ Ribeye area = value as impacts yield grade ▪▪ % Retail Product = more yield is more meat Cost Traits ▪▪ Cow mature size = in general bigger eats more ▪▪ Cow intake = more intake costs more ▪▪ Feedlot feed efficiency = cost of gain

Star System Explained:

Accuracy: The sire’s level of accuracy is determined by the number of progeny that have been evaluated in the Leachman System.  Several progeny recorded, use with confidence (over 90% accurate).  Pedigree and individual data only (about 30% accurate).

Calving Ease: The predicted calving ease if you use the bull on heifers.  The easiest calving bulls in the industry.  Use on smaller heifers with minimal assistance needed.  Use on larger heifers with some assistance expected.

(If no stars are shown, the animal is recommended for use on cows only.)

Good Better Best

qqq qqqq qqqqq

Growth: A formula combines WW and YW to predict how much performance the sire will pass on to their progeny.  Most growth.

Maternal: An estimate of the maternal efficiency of the daughters this sire will produce. It includes cow size, milk, fertility and growth.  Keep these heifers! They will make the most profitable females in the business.

Feed/Carc: A formula that combines: gain, conversion, carcass weight and carcass merit to predict post weaning performance.  Maximum overall value in your feeder calves.

Disposition: An observation of the sire’s disposition.  You can walk up to and touch.  Average - respects flight zones and handles well, but is not a pet.  Nervous.

Example: A -0.50 F:G EPD means this animal's progeny will consume 1/2 pound less feed per pound of gain than would progeny of a 0.00 F:G EPD sire.

Feed Intake: Difference in feed consumption of each of a bull's progeny in a 112 day feeding period.

Example: A steer whose sire has a -100 Intake EPD will eat 100 pounds less feed in 112 days than one whose sire had a zero Intake EPD.

Across Breed Comparisons

Dare to compare: You cannot afford to make mistakes in your breeding program! Choosing to use sires with incomplete or low value data can unknowingly make your herd less profitable – same work, same cost, poor results - unacceptable. Leachman ABC’s are the most reliable and comprehensive EPD’s in the industry. They are backed by a large (nearly a million), long-standing (over 30 years), multi-breed (over 15 breeds) database. Using this system assures you of making sound breeding decisions with minimal risk of failure.

A quantum leap – The knockout BWF heifer calf and old Braham cow pictured are a mother-daughter pair.

Status of our cowherd: – 85% of our cowherd is at least one generation Stabilizer sired – Our young females are up to 3 and 4 generations Stabilizer sired – Cow size is down, without suppressing production…in fact production is still going up – We see our cows more uniform… while continuing to maintain our level of hybrid vigor – Disposition is quite a bit better. The 2s and 3s are easier to handle than we were used to – Visitors are amazed at the herd’s nice udders

“You can see in real time, the living proof of why our Stabilizer calves topped the mid-Sept. Ft. Smith Livestock Auction Co., Moffett, OK.” ~ Brett Foster Booneville, AR

Results marketing our 2018 calves… straight off the cows bawling: – 592 steer calves had a 714 lb avg. pay weight, topped market $151.42 cwt, and netted $1,080 per head – All the steer calves…top to bottom. Only 10 head cut back at the farm for color and structure – large string which held their weight together, without any weaning process – 80 were out of two year old heifers – 302 heifer calves had 629 lb avg. pay weight, sold for $145.92 cwt to net $920 per head – 275 head of heifer calves retained There is a reason they call them ‘Stabilizer’ off the top for breeding replacements Our Leachman Stabilizer bulls totally dominated the type, color, performance and marketability of these calves out of our crossbred cows, pictured Sept. 4, 2018, a couple of weeks before they sold.

Leachman Stabilizers – 30 years in the making!

• Built on Science: First designed in the 1970’s by USDA ARS scientists at the Meat Animal Research Center as the Marc II composite: ¼ Red Angus, ¼ Hereford, ¼ Simmental, ¼ Gelbvieh.

• Privatized: A private herd was developed by Pat Vinton, Gordon, NE and later sold to the Tessari family in Babb, MT – thus becoming the foundation for the Leachman Stabilizer herd.

• Modernized: From 1988 – 2003, Leachman modernized the Stabilizer composite: ▪ Reduced the birth weight.

▪ Made the cattle solid colored and polled.

▪ Increased the post weaning gain.

▪ Improved convenience traits including

disposition and udder quality.

▪ Introduced black lines in addition to the original red lines.

▪ Injected top hybrid and purebred sires form the Angus, Simmental, and Gelbvieh breeds.

• Moved to Colorado: In 2003, Leachman Cattle of Colorado was formed with a nucleus of cooperators that included the Tessari herd and several other Stabilizer cooperators.

• Selected with $Profit: LCoC began selecting the Stabilizer using $Profit with significant results: ▪ Dramatic further reduction in birth weight while increasing yearling growth.

▪ Significant improvement on marbling to now exceed average marbling Angus cattle.

▪ Substantial selection for reduced feed intake and improved feed efficiency.

▪ All of which coincided with a huge annual progress on $Profit.

• Expanded Internationally: In 2016, Leachman offered genetic analysis services to Stabilizer breeders in the UK, New Zealand, and Australia. This expansion increased the total Stabilizer herd being selected for $Profit to over 20,000 breeding females. Genetics are now flowing to and from each of these herds – increasing the rate of global selection improvement.

Excerpts from a 2001 letter written by Dr. Keith Gregory, Research Geneticist at U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC) to Jim Leachman: “Your contributions to beef cattle breeding are unmatched in the history of beef cattle breeding. No one has had a greater impact on beef cattle breeding on a global basis. I have stated on several occasions that no one is implementing more of the available beef cattle breeding technology than Leachman Cattle Company.”

13. Maternal: This is an estimate of maternal efficiency, NOT milk. It includes cow size, milk, fertility, and growth. The bulls are scored from one star to five stars. Five star bulls will produce some of the most profitable cows in the industry if you sell calves at weaning.

14. Feedlot: This looks at all of the post weaning traits including gain, conversion, carcass weight, and carcass merit. Scored from one star to five stars, where five stars would produce maximum overall value in your feeder calves.

10. Genetic Defect codes - a C appended to the end denotes 15. Phenotype: A combination of eye appeal and overall carrier and an F denotes tested free and P denotes possikind. Scored from one star to five stars. Five star bulls ble but untested. are the best phenotypic bulls in the sale (in our opinNH - Neuropathic Hydrocephalus ion)! Two star bulls are less attractive visually than AM - Arthrogryposis Multiplex average.

CA - Contractural Arachnodactyly 16. Disposition: Our traditional score of 1 – 5 on disOS - Osteopetrosis position. Score 5 bulls are bulls you can walk up to DD -Developmental Duplication and touch. Score 3 is about average historically for Phenotype Scores to Make Bull Buying Easier: Leachman bulls. However, we are making a concerted effort to improve disposition, so most bulls score 3 or 11. CE: Calving Ease is the predicted calving ease if you use higher. The bulls scored 2.5 or 2 are nervous and do the bull on heifers. If there is a number in the brown not like to be in close quarters with people on foot – box, this indicates the breed calculated calving ease dibut they are great for big range operations. rect EPD.

18. Birth weight EPD/ABC expressed on an Angus scale (or breed scale for Red Angus, and Charolais).

19. Weaning weight EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale.

The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale.

20. Yearling EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale.

21. Milk EPD/ABC expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale. This is the best predictor of a bull’s daughter’s ability to milk. It measures the difference in weaning weight that will be produced between one bull’s daughters and another bull’s daughters due solely to milk.

22. IMF is the ultrasound based EPD/ABC for marbling expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale.

23. REA is the ultrasound based EPD/ABC for ribeye area expressed on a breed scale. The Stabilizers are expressed on an Angus scale.

24. MWT is the predicted mature weight of daughters that you will get if you use the bull on a 1250 pound cow. If your cows weigh 1350, add 100 to this predicted weight. If your cows weigh only 1150, subtract 100 from this predicted weight. This EPD is the best indicator of daughter size -- far better than frame score or yearling height.

25. F:G is the pedigree estimated feed to gain EPD that predicts the feedlot efficiency of the bulls offspring.

A negative number means that the bull’s progeny will feed more efficiently. Example: -0.50 means that the bulls progeny will require ½ pound less feed per pound of gain.

26. Intake: is an estimate of the amount of feed that the bull’s progeny will consume over a 112 day feeding period. It is expressed in pounds. Animals with higher intake will consume more throughout their life.

Animals with lower intake will consume less.

27. YHT is an EPD, expressed as frame score, predicting the yearling frame score of a sire’s progeny, compared to that of other sires.

28. SC is an EPD, expressed in centimeters, predicting the yearling scrotal circumference of a sire’s progeny, compared to that of other sires.

29. $Ranch EPD: This Leachman profit index that predicts weaning profitability based on calving ease, weaning weight, maternal milk, cow cost, and FERTILITY. Based on producing 100 calves. This EPD assumes a slide on calf prices of $10 / cwt.

30. $Feeder: This number is expressed in terms of the bull’s added value to the sale price of your feeder calves. It is expressed in dollars per head. Thus when (970) 568-3983

comparing a +100 bull vs. a +50 bull, we expect the first bull to sire calves worth $50 per head more at weaning (regardless of their weight).

31. $Profit™ EPD: One, simple, proven number that gives each trait a weight according to its impact on profit.

32. FT: Indicates the bull was individually measured for feed intake. Bulls without this notation, were not individually measured. Unmeasured bulls have EPD’s based on their parental average.

33. PAP: PAP EPD. If there is a number in the brown box, this is the actual PAP score of the animal. If there is a circle around the score, this indicates that the score was collected above 7000 ft.

Key to bull comments: • Any reference to % rank is the percentile rank within that bull’s breed. Top 1% means the animal ranks better than 99% of the population on that trait.

• Reference to the number rank (i.e. #2 $Profit) is the bulls rank within his breed within the sale bulls for that trait. So, #4 F:G ST means the 4th best Feed:Gain Stabilizer bull in the sale.

• All bulls are evaluated for foot soundness. Bulls below a 3 score are deemed to have less than desirable hooves. 2.5 Feet = flatter heal and/or slightly longer toe. 2.0 Feet = flatter heal and much longer toe. 1.5 Feet = evidence of toes curling in on front or hind feet. All such bulls’ feet have been trimmed and sell with our complete guarantee.

• Other abbreviations used in the comments include: • Dam 5@101 NR – indicates that the bull’s dam has five calves with an average weaning ratio of 101 • WR & NR = weaning or nursing ratio. How the calf ranked within herd on their adjusted weaning weight.

• YR = yearling ratio. How the calf ranked within herd on adjusted yearling weight.

• AWW = adjusted 205 day weaning weight. AYW = adjusted 365 day yearling weight.

• REA & IMF = either adjusted data or ratios for ultrasound ribeye area and inter-muscular fat (marbling).

• ADG = average daily gain on test. WDA = weight per day of age at a year.

• Stay = the Red Angus EPD for Stayability. This predicts the likelihood that a bull’s daughters stay in the herd. +14 means that 14% more of this bull’s daughters will be in the herd at age 6.
