DELIVERY & INSURANCE: • •

•

Free delivery on all purchases within the Continental USA. Any buyer that picks up their cattle within 10 days of the sale will receive a $250 discount per animal. We will keep any bull purchased free of charge until we can deliver them, or until the buyer picks them up. All cattle must be picked up before May 1.

Insurance coverage on your purchase for periods up to a year after the sale are available through Harding and Harding by calling Jim Gies on his cell phone at 970-590-0500.

HERD HEALTH: • •

• •

At 60 days of age and post-weaning, calves were vaccinated with a 7-way clostridial with haemophilus. They were also poured with Ivomec.

At Pre-weaning they got another round of clostridials plus pasturella, a modified live IBR, BVD, PI3, BRSV, Lepto 5, Vibro, and Hardjobovis, and a Haemophilus shot. At Post-weaning they got a second round of IBR, BVD, PI3, BRSV, Lepto 5, Vibrio, and Hardjo-bovis vaccines plus an injectable wormer.

All bulls have been examined and yearling scrotal measurements have been taken. All coming two year old bulls have been semen and trich tested.

All cattle will sell with proper health papers and EID tags for interstate shipment anywhere in the USA.

BREEDING GUARANTEE: If a bull becomes a non-breeder within one year of this sale, J&N will provide you with a credit in a future sale equal to the bull’s purchase price less his salvage value. All bulls must be properly handled and cared for by the purchaser. Bulls should not be allowed to get too thin. Yearling bulls should not be mixed or used with older bulls in order to prevent the risk of injury. Yearling bulls should be semen tested before using them the first time. This guarantee does not apply to bulls that die, are killed or injured through no fault of J&N Ranch. If a problem arises, contact us before disposing of the bull. All claims must be verified by a veterinarian.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS: PAYMENT: Cash or check will be accepted. If you purchase over the phone or through a representative we ask that you mail a check on sale day. Payment is required before cattle are shipped from J&N Ranch.

REGISTRATION: All bulls in this sale are registered in the American Black Hereford Association. Ownership transfers are included in the purchase price of the bull.

RETAINED SEMEN INTEREST: J&N Ranch is retaining a 1/4 semen interest in all bulls selling in this offering. The purchaser of the bull will have possession of the bull and all salvage value rights. In the event of any semen sales from the bull, then J&N Ranch is retaining 1/2 interest in the gross revenue from all semen sales. J&N Ranch retains the semen interest

This past fall was the 30th Anniversary of the American Black Hereford Association that my family founded. It gave us all a moment to stop, and reflect on how far this breed has come. At the end of 2024, the ABHA was closing in on 600 active breeders across the country. Thirty years ago, that association had board meetings around my parents’ dinner table. What a journey it has been… and, in all reality, it has only just begun!

We are extremely proud of the group of bulls we are offering in our 41st Production Sale. There are 55 homozygous black bulls, 57 homozygous polled bulls, and 29 bulls that are both homozygous black and homozygous polled.

We continue to maintain the calving ease and maternal traits that make these cattle so desirable, while pushing the growth and carcass traits to even higher levels. We know first-hand how profitable Black Hereford sired steers can be — that is why we conducted the head-to-head comparison in 2022 with Angus sired steers that you can review on page 23.

It is remarkable that despite record high prices, beef demand domestically and internationally remains very strong. That is because of the hard work our industry has done creating and investing in a better, more consistent dining experience for the end consumer. That work begins right here, with the genetic selections you will be making to bring home to your cowherd.

Thank you for your confidence in our program. Welcome to the Ranch.

BLACK HEREFORDS EPDS EXPLAINED

CARCASS EPDS

The EPDs in this catalog were provided by the American Black Hereford Association, and were current at the time of compilation. The ABHA now has their EPD calculations done by IGS, the largest beef genetic evaluation system in the world, combining performance records from 20 million animals and nearly 20 different cattle organizations including the ABHA.

MARBLING EPD (MAR): Predict the average difference in USDA Quality Grade in an animal’s progeny when compared to the progeny of another animal at a given age endpoint. Expressed in numerical marbling score where one point equals one USDA marbling score.

An EPD is the difference in expected performance of future progeny of an individual, compared with expected performance of future progeny of an individual of average genetic merit. They are reported in units of measurement for each trait (e.g. lbs., cm, etc.) The data used in this analysis is based on up to 20 generations of J & N breeding and thousands of head of cattle measured over 45 years of performance testing for growth, maternal and carcass traits.

BACKFAT EPD (FAT): Estimate the average differences that are expected in external fat thickness at the 12th and 13th rib between progeny of different animals. Expressed in inches at a given age endpoint.

RIBEYE AREA EPD (REA): Predict the average difference in ribeye area in an animal’s progeny when compared to the progeny of another animal at a given age endpoint. Expressed in square inches.

SELECTION INDEXES PRODUCTION EPDS CALVING EASE DIRECT (CE): Predict the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when bred to first-calf heifers. Expressed as percentage of unassisted births with a higher value indicating greater calving ease.

BIRTH WEIGHT EPD (BW): BW EPDs are expressed in pounds and predict the average difference that can be expected in an animal’s offspring when compared with another animal in the same genetic evaluation. Birth weight EPDs are primarily used as an indicator of calving ease, with the age and size of the females to be bred usually dictating how much birth weight can be tolerated.

WEANING WEIGHT EPD (WW): EPDs are expressed in pounds and predict the average differences in weight that can be expected between the progeny of animals in the same genetic evaluation at 205 days of age.

Weaning Weight EPDs do not account for differences in weaning weight that are due to milk.

YEARLING WEIGHT EPD (YW): EPDs are expressed in pounds and predict the average differences that can be expected between the progeny of animals at one year of age.

DOCILITY EPD (DOC): Docility EPDs predict the percentage of an animal’s offspring that are expected to score favorably (1 or 2) on a five point scale when compared to the offspring of another animal. They are expressed as a percentage with higher values being favorable.

Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle. That’s where indexes come in. Through rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on your bottom line. The same technology that led to the dramatic progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several decades was used to develop the following $ indexes.

ALL PURPOSE INDEX (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature Angus cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield.

TERMINAL INDEX (TI): Evaluates sires for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold grade and yield. Consequently, maternal traits such as milk, stayability, and maternal calving ease are not considered in this index.

Using API and TI, if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not use TI. If a bull has an API of 130 his offspring will generate $50 more than a bull with an API of 80. TI measures the increased value of offspring on feed. The higher the number, the more dollars paid when the are sold on a yield and grade basis.

MATERNAL EPDS MATERNAL CALVING EASE EPD (MCE): Predict the average ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to the daughters of another sire in the same evaluation.

Expressed as percentage of unassisted births.

MATERNAL MILK EPD (M): Milk EPDs are expressed as pounds of calf weaned by a bull’s daughters. They reflect the average differences in weaning weight that can be expected in grand progeny due to the milking ability of a bull’s daughters. Available feed resources will dictate the extent to which milking ability should be selected.

• Lot 1 is out of a top performing cow, JN BALDEE 1872. She ranks in the top 1% of the breed for API. This 842H son is safe to use on heifers, as he is in the top 20% of the breed for BW. He is also in the top 10% for Marbling, the top 3% for API, and he’s homozygous black and homozygous polled.

• Lot 3 is out of a JN BALDER D403 daughter. D403 was one of several bulls purchased by a semen distribution company based out of New Zealand, and was used almost exclusively as a beef on dairy cross on dairy operations in that country. They found Black Herefords have 5 days shorter gestation than traditional Herefords, providing an extra 5 days of milk on average. This D403 grandson is deep bellied, long, and is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

• This two year old is probably one of the best bulls in the sale. In the pen, he’s really impressive, with a splash of white across his face. On paper, he’s in the top 25% of the breed for CE, BW, and YW, the top 20% for TI, and the top 2% for API. He is also homozygous black and homozygous polled. This kind of performance shows how good the JN Baldee 1861 cow is, as she also raised the 861K herd bull we really like, and have used the last 3 years.

• Lot 11 is a homozygous black yearling, with good eye pigment. Many believe that dark eye pigment like this bull has, lessens the risk of issues like pink eye and cancer eye. We also think this bull has a nice shape to him, especially through his middle.

• Lot 15 is out of a cow that turns 11 this spring. She breeds back every year, calving, raising, and weaning her calf on her own - the kind of reliability that you pay a premium for when it comes to farm equipment. This bull calf will have high fertility and libido, and he’s homozygous black.

He also has one of the highest All-Purpose Indexes in the breed. In addition, he is in the top 2% of the breed for CE, and the top 5% for BW, so you can understand why we often reach for his straws when we A.I. heifers.

• Lot 32 has performed excellently so far, with a 76 lb birthweight (BW ratio of 92) and then followed it up with a weaning weight ratio of 110. He has a brockle face, and his calving ease traits are immediately apparent from how smooth he is and his moderate frame. This bull is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

• This is the two year old full brother to Lot 28. It’s interesting to compare the numbers, and realize that although the pedigree is identical, the EPDs are not. You get a little more calving ease from the younger brother, Lot 28, but more growth with this bull, the older brother. He is homozygous polled.

• A guy can get spoiled by these 859H sons, who consistently have lighter than average birthweights, and heavier than average weaning weights, and here is another one. This bull has great pigment around his eyes, and is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

He has strong, powerful legs, with a clean tall front, and he sets up well on all four corners. He is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

• Lot 39 was born a twin, and spent about a week as a bottle calf before we had a foster mom available for him. Everyone calls him buddy, and he is homozygous black and homozygous polled. He performed really well on that foster mom with a 621 lb weaning weight. He’s a big fella now, with a little more frame, lots of mass, and pigment around his eyes.

• This two year old is marked like a traditional Hereford, and came in with a big 112 weaning weight ratio. He is deep from front to back, carrying lots of red meat. This performance is not a one-off for this bull’s dam - her 3 calves have averaged a 113.3 weaning weight ratio. There are good maternal genetics at work here.

• Calving ease deluxe! Lot 40 ranks in the top 1% of the breed for BW and the top 3% for CE, and his actual birthweight was only 53 lbs. He is a two year old that has just a white face, and is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

• Just tremendous maternal traits from this yearling bull out of F540, with no compromise. He is in the top 20% of the breed for TI, the top10% for API, the top 5% for Milk, and the top 3% for CE and BW. Any time a bull has a 67 lbs birthweight and a 622 lbs weaning weight, you have to take notice.

He stands up straight and tall, with a clean appearance, excellent curve to his ribs, and finishes it off with a high tail set. He is homozygous polled.

• Here is a two year old that ranks in the top 10% of the breed for Milk and Docility - two traits that we all would love to have more of in herds. He is marked like a traditional Hereford, and has a wide track with a little extra to his middle.

He has the makings of a bull that will last season after season, and, according to his high Milk EPD, he will sire good daughters that you’ll want to retain in your herd. He is homozygous black.

• Lot 71 has pigment around both eyes, and excellent length of body. We think highly of his dam and think she will be a good one for years to come. This yearling has good growth and docility numbers.

• The last of the 3 homozygous polled Trademark sons, this yearling has pigment around both eyes. He is in the top 20% of the breed for YW, the top 15% of the breed for WW and REA, the top 10% for Marbling and TI, and the top 4% for API. You can tell why we were excited to turn these Trademark genetics black.

• When we looked at Red Hereford genetics to incorporate, we quickly zeroed in on Validated, but he died young and semen was extremely hard to find. ortunately, we were able to find rademark, who maintains his sire’s incredible, outlier carcass traits, and helped bring down the birthweight. He ranks in the top 20% or better of the Red Hereford breed for 6 traits, plus all 3 indexes. He is a game changer, and we are very excited to turn his genetics black.

His EPDs show that he is in the top 20% of the breed for CE, FAT, and TI, the top 15% for CE, MCE, the top 10% for Milk, and the top 5% for API. That’s in the top 20% or better for 7 traits, for a bull that is also homozygous black and homozygous polled.

BLACK HEREFORD VS ANGUS HEAD-TO-HEAD COMPARISON

We purchased these two sets of yearling steers in the Spring of 2022. They were turned out on grass at our Flint Hills ranch. We shipped them off grass in the Fall of 2022 directly to the feedlot.

They were fed in adjacent pens exactly the same rations and sold on the U.S. Premium Beef grid in February 2023.

The Black Hereford steers were purchased from a customer who has been using our bulls for the last 11 years. The Angus steers were off a reputation Angus herd and were also bred alike.
