These females stem from a working cowherd, commanded to forage until late in the season, with selection pressure being put on females that can work on their own. Oe’s demand cows with a great temperament, fleshing ease, the ability to breed back in 2 cycles and wean heavy calves year after year. The maternal foundation of this offering includes some of the breeds greats: Final Answer, Alliance 6595, Sitz Tradition, Bismarck, and Mytty In Focus. Oe’s have continued to build on this maternal groundwork by purchasing sons of Whitlock, Open Country, Absolute, and Final Answer, to sire the heifers in this group. These heifers are born March 20 – May 1 and are on a complete vaccination program including: Vista Once, Vision 7/Spur in May and Vista Once, Ultrabac 7/Somnubac, Ivermectin and been Bangs vaccinated this fall. The steer mates to these herd builders weighed 642 lbs. off the cow November 7th, with no creep or supplement. This group of heifers are PG’d open and breedable, will be poured with Clean-up prior to the sale and are ready to go out and become a valuable contributing group of females in any operation.

Levi Rue – Sheyenne, ND 701-302-0436 Consignment: 50 Angus Open Heifers

Levi is bringing another nice group of heifers to the Angus Partners sale and has not held any heifers back as replacements. These heifers are deep bodied, easy keeping heifers that are sired by Unanimous sons, an Anchor son, an Intrinsic son, an Elevate son, Expedition sons, a McCoy son and a Rito 9M25 son out of an Expedition daughter from Spickler Ranch. The Expedition females are some of the highest producing, nicest uddered, most fertile cows at Spickler Ranch. Many of these heifer calves are out of heifers purchased as breds through Angus Partners. Levi has purchased heifers from Zenkers in 2019, Flecks in 2018, and Gibbons in 2017. The heifers have been raised in a good forage environment with plenty of quality mineral, they are fed minimal grain, and are on a complete Vac program. As a result of the wet fall these heifers have been running on grass longer than normal, but have performed very well without being pushed. Levi has culled for fertility and selected for fleshing ability which has resulted in minimal input females that work well in an extended grazing season on the native pastures along the Sheyenne River. They are weaned, have been Bangs Vaccinated, are PG’d open and ready to breed. This is a high quality set of heifers from a top program, be sure to find them sale day.
