Free delivery on all purchases within the Continental USA. Any buyer that picks up their cattle within one week of sale day will receive a $250 discount per animal. 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 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.

Every year has it challenges, but it is certainly rare for our industry to be as optimistic as it is today. The nation’s cowherd is about to enter into an expansion after a prolonged sell-off. It is important that you, as cow-calf producers, are well-equipped heading into that expansion. One of the advantages of owning a commercial feedlot is that we have noticed Black Hereford cattle eat less and gain more than other cattle we are feeding. At the back of this catalog is a head-to-head comparison, independently verified by a third party, which documents what we were seeing in our feedlot. To reinforce that feed efficiency trait, we made a major investment when we partnered with ABS to buy the Converter 40E bull, which holds the record for the most feed-efficient bull. As a yearling, he posted an impressive 5.83 lbs average daily gain, and converted at a 3.39 ratio of feed to gain. At J&N Ranch, we are focused on calving ease, carcass quality, and feed efficiency, to bring those qualities to our customers, so you can make more money by using our bulls. Thank you for your confidence in our program. Welcome to the Ranch. Dirck Hoagland J & N Ranch Email us at info@jnranch.com

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 if the bull is sold to subsequent purchasers. J&N Ranch also reserves the right to collect semen from the bull at the buyer’s convenience and our expense. If you desire any changes to the above retained semen interest, please contact us ahead of time. We are happy to make exceptions on an individual basis prior to the sale.

YARDAGE: We will keep your purchases at J&N Ranch free of charge and deliver them prior to May 1st. LIABILITY: All persons attending this sale do so at their own risk. J&N Ranch and its owners assume no liability for property damage or accidents that may occur. DIRECTIONS: FROM KANSAS CITY: Go west on I-70, then north on I-435 to Donahoo Road.

BLACK HEREFORDS EPDS EXPLAINED 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. 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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

CARCASS EPDS 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. BACKFAT EPD (FAT): Estimate the average differences that are

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.
