Coalition stamps his progeny with his good hip, correct structure and expressive muscle shape. Sons are solid performing, good looking bulls with modest birth weights. Daughters are consistent in their type - deep ribbed, good structured and feminine fronted, with impeccable udder quality and productive! The cows behind Coalition are outstanding. His incredible dam, Erelite 109Z, is flawless in her kind and topped the historic U2 Ranch Dispersal last fall at $140,000.

Thrive has been the heaviest used performance sire at Spickler Ranch North for the past 2 seasons for good reason. His progeny are impressive - big bodied, thick made cattle with extra performance and carcass quality. Thrive is backed by the maternal proof of his cow family. His Pathfinder® dam is a model Angus cow with a tidy, small teated udder & one of the best production records in the Spickler herd. His daughters in production look to carry on this maternal legacy.

Convoy is a new sire addition that was admired by many astute cattlemen where he was the lead-off bull of the Fall 2019 Connealy Angus sale.

DAM - EBBIE OF CONANGA 5473

Convoy is as wide based, big ribbed, and stout as one can make, all while striding out like a cat! He is full of “Cow Power” with so many of the great cow families at Connealy’s stacked in his pedigree (Blinda, Eura Elga, Elbanna, & Ebonista). Convoy’s prolific and powerful dam, Ebbie of Conanga 5473, is a rising star and will surely add her name to the list of great ones! Expect tremendous phenotype, growth, and maternal excellence by using Convoy!

Best of all - Front Range is easy on the eyes with his attractive profile and huge body in a 6+ frame package and an outcross pedigree to many Angus cattle. His hard working dam weaned off another stud of a bull calf last fall, so “cow power” is bred in. Front Range has the makings of a great breeding bull that should stand the test of time!

Proven in the Sandhills of Nebraska, Leading Edge is an DAUGHTER - DVORAK BROTHERS RANCHES exciting semi-proven bull that brings an abundance of quality and balance to the table. He has sired sale topping bulls, and big bodied hard working young cows. Leading Edge is one of those “no holes, do everything right” kind of bulls! Between Dvorak Brothers Ranches and their customers, there have been over a thousand first calf heifers calved bred to Leading Edge with no known pulls. Now that’s what we call “proven calving ease!” Leading Edge sires a ton of volume, true muscle and width of base, and will improve foot quality. His daughters are big ribbed, easy fleshing cows with some of the best udders you’ll find. They are the cowboy kind!

The NEW ESTROTECT™ Breeding Indicator featuring patent pending Breeding Bullseye™ technology makes it easier than ever to identify cows that are in heat, pinpoint timing for AI and Timed AI protocols, as well as confirm successful pregnancies.

BREED

DON’T BREED

According to third-party research, when the new ESTROTECT™ Breeding Bullseye™ is rubbed off by mounting activity, cows are up to three times more likely to conceive. Not only does ESTROTECT™ with the Breeding Bullseye™ indicate when a cow is in heat, it tells you exactly when the animal should be bred to achieve optimal results.

Take the Worry out of Your Timed AI Program by Jordan M. Thomas, Ph.D.

Assistant Extension Professor - Beef Reproduction Specialist Division of Animal Sciences, University of Missouri For folks who are used to heat detection or who have never used AI before, the idea of timed AI can be a little scary. I know of more than one producer who calls it “poke and hope.” Of course, the physiology of timed AI and estrus synchronization is quite a bit more sophisticated than that. But I understand where the skepticism comes from. We set up animals on a protocol, follow a schedule, and actually perform AI at a predetermined time on one day. And amazingly, it works. Even after having used estrus synchronization and AI on tens of thousands of animals at this point, I sometimes stop and think about how incredible it is that we have come this far.

ation like a mini research institute, but you can’t know what to anticipate or correct problems unless you first know what you are working with. For cows, knowing their previous calving date is one of the most valuable pieces of information. Age of each cow will be helpful as well, especially as you look at the performance of your younger two- and three-year-old cows. Condition of cows is another thing to be watching, both at the group and individual level. At a minimum I suggest recording IDs of cows that are less than a body condition score 5. All of this information will prove helpful as you look back at your results and think about potential improvements.

Still though, everything in agriculture can be stressful, since many things are beyond our control. A timed AI program is no exception. However, a lot of unnecessary worry is introduced into AI programs not because results are unpredictable, but because we do not have the information we need to make good predictions. Turning those “unknowns” into “knowns” can take a lot of worry out of your timed AI program.

Depending on your goals and calendar, you may even consider managing some of these animals differently based on this information. For example, if you are working to shorten a long calving season, you may find it helpful to divide your herd, sorting later calving animals into a group that will receive synchronization and AI a few weeks later. Over time and over multiple years, you can work to recombine the herd by moving later calving cows up and strategically culling. Alternatively, if you plan to cull aggressively this year after weaning, you may choose not to invest in synchronization and AI at all for excessively thin or late calving cows. Another strategy I have seen used effectively is to invest in synchronization for marginal animals such as late calvers and thin cows, and only perform timed AI for these animals if they have an activated estrus detection aid before timed AI.

Know As Much As Possible from the Start First, before you even begin an estrus synchronization program, know as much as you can about the individual animals in the group. I realize not everyone is trying to run their oper-

Extra Considerations for Heifers Breeding heifers without any kind of prebreeding information is risky. A visual assessment of the body condition of heifers is helpful but only tells you so much. Actual weights of heifers are also helpful, but really most useful only if you can relate it back to mature cow size. Weight and condition are really just indirect indicators of whether heifers are likely to have attained puberty. Even better, consider having a prebreeding evaluation done 4-6 weeks before breeding. A veterinarian can actually evaluate the reproductive tract directly and assign a reproductive tract score. That information is powerful: it tells you exactly what is going on for each heifer, and helps you troubleshoot your development program before breeding rather than after. You also then have an opportunity to cull poor performers rather than investing time, money, and resources in a development and breeding program. If you have a large group of heifers with a lot of unknowns (age, size, sire, source, etc), a prebreeding evaluation can easily pay for itself and then some. Keep Records at AI It sounds obvious, but we really cannot troubleshoot an AI program if we do not have any information to look back on. If you are using multiple sires in your AI program, of course keep track of which sires are used on which animals. If multiple

2020 BEEF-360 Genetics Guide

technicians are breeding---especially with different experience levels---track which technicians bred which animals. I also strongly encourage you to apply estrus detection aids (e.g. Estrotect breeding indicators) at the final animal handling before AI. Even if you are doing timed AI rather than heat detection, this gives you something to monitor and gives you a check point before AI. Apply those patches and record which animals did or did not have activated patches as they come through the chute for AI. Lastly, I suggest you always record the ID of an animal that acts up in the chute or is excessively stressed for some reason or another. That may be helpful information to look back on at preg check, or you may even decide that animal needs to find a new place to be a cow. Final Thoughts It may seem a little overkill to collect and record information like this, but that information has value. It may help you troubleshoot after the fact, avoid costs ahead of time, or find ways to improve next year. There may be just as much value in recording and analyzing your own records as there is in the AI program in and of itself. You will also go into the AI program with confidence and reasonable expectations for success. I won’t promise it will ever be completely worry-free, but I bet you sleep a little better the night before---and the night after---timed AI.

CIDR Handling - Mizzou Repro

Administering GnRH - Mizzou Repro

Take two minutes to make sure you're handling CIDRs correctly. Every step in the estrus synchronization process is critical.

Every step in the estrus synchronization process is critical if you want the best results! Take a couple minutes to make sure you are administering GnRH correctly.

Administering Prostaglandin F2a - Mizzou Repro

Breeding Barns - Mizzou Repro

Prostaglandin F2a (PG) is a critical part of most estrus synchronization protocols. Jaclyn Ketchum from the University of Missouri's Division of Animal Sciences goes over considerations relating to administering prostaglandin products.

For many beef producers, the biggest challenge to carrying out an AI program is facilities. Anita Ellis, University of Missouri Extension Field Specialist Livestock, shares how a portable breeding barn can help.
