WELCOME Welcome to the 20th Annual Croissant Red Angus bull sale. We can not believe that it has been twenty years since our first on-ranch bull sale. In that time, we have seen cattle and feed prices change, drought and wet years; however, through all the ups and downs our commitment to provide profitable genetics to our customers is unwavering. This year’s offering of 85 bulls continue that commitment. You will find bulls that will sire offspring that will grow with less inputs, provide more calves, less opens, and improve traits important after calves leave the ranch gates. We strive to provide genetics that will work in a multitude of environments and management systems to create a return on investment for the genetics; this is being accomplished and we see the results in sale prices and cowherds that we visit. This summer we saw similar trends as last year with Croissant Red Angus sired calves going beyond their contemporaries. We are continuing the effort to help our customers when they market calves. We work with a network of contacts to help assist in the sale of your cattle when they go to market and work with Top Dollar Angus. As a commitment to your success Croissant Red Angus will pay the enrollment fee for those who qualify. Reach out to Kevin as market time comes around and see what Croissant Red Angus can do to help. We have worked with the Sorensen family since 2015. This year they have brought another outstanding set of bulls. The bulls keep getting better each year and we are proud to work with such a wonderful family. We would also like to thank all of our friends and neighbors that help at sale and throughout the year, without you none of this would be possible. THANK YOU! This year we are honored to introduce a new member to the team. Lynn Robinson, a Texas Tech graduate from Houston, TX came to us in August and is learning the ropes fast. We look forward to many years to come with Lynn. Yes, Lynn has adapted to the cold; she is quite the trooper. Earlier this year we said goodbye to Austin and Jael. They decided to move on to pursue their next career move. We really appreciate all their hard work and wish them well. We look forward to seeing you in person on March 28th at the sale. If you are unable to join us in person, there are other ways to be a part of the sale, DVAuction, sale day phones, or absentee bidding. Visitors are always welcome; stop by before the sale to have more individual time to look at the bulls. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us, we are always here to help. Sincerely, Larry, Jean, Sallie, Kevin, and Alisa The Croissant Red Angus family
All bulls PAP tested.

This may be as good an All-Around Herd Sire prospect as we’ve ever produced! Starting with a 15 CED to 116 YW spread, he simultaneously advances multiple traits in a balance that yield higher Profits - hence his Top 1% Herdbuilder. Expect All-Around to improve Feed Efficiency as well with his best 2% gain and lowest 32% feed intake – that combined with his 132 IMF ratio means his calves will earn more Prime Premiums with less corn.

Our longtime friends, the Shaw family, have been reaping the benefits of Tesla with Top $ Angus icons on their calves and making excellent females. We’ve used Tesla heavily A.I., but the “old man” may have met his match in Head Start, who earned ratios of 111 WW, 110 YW and an “off the charts” 136 for IMF.

When we purchased Full House as the high-selling bull in the 2018 Leland/Koester sale we expected plenty of horsepower, but we were not expecting a best 1% calving ease son, like Stacked Deck – who sells as Lot 5 and will be the first Full House son we’ve ever sold. So far, Stacked Deck has represented a most profitable growth curve both in terms of timing, pounds and composition. He was 16% lighter at birth, 4% heavier at weaning, 9% heavier at yearling, gained 16% faster, with just as much muscling and 32% more marbling than his contemporaries. RETAINING HALF INTEREST.

Exceptional spread from low birth weights to rapid early growth originally sparked our interest in Top Gun, and 5L’s interest in Iceman when he sold three years ago. 374G follows in those footsteps but adds significant cow herd profitability traits so that he easily clears the $200 HerdBuilder threshold.

RED ANGUS BULLS We’ve introduced the Domain sire group in our 2020 sale for multiple reasons. First, he represents a logical outcross for Merlin, Top Gun, Mission Statement and Premier sons and grandsons that we’ve supplied over the past decade. Second, he balances selection across the most economically relevant traits - hence his “best of the breed” HerdBuilder ranking. Third, he excels for cowherd longevity which enhances profitability through reduced replacement rate and reduced cowherd depreciation costs.

RED ANGUS BULLS This may be the best group of Efficient sons we’ve ever seen, much less sold. From top to bottom they come with extra depth of body and spring of rib, and routinely deliver exceptional efficiency traits. Here we are over half way through the sale and Efficient delivers a sire group of top 1/3 ADG while providing maternal traits to build females with.

SALE INFORMATION SALE TERMS: • Animals are unconditionally guaranteed to be sound breeders for the first breeding season. We do not guarantee against injury or illness. • Each animal will be at the buyer’s risk as soon as sold, but will be cared for by the seller for a reasonable time after the sale. Animals need to be picked up by April 15th. • The bulls will have passed a Breeding Soundness exam before sale day. • Free delivery of bulls within Colorado, or within 500 miles, beyond will be at cost. $20,000 or more in purchases qualifies for free delivery in the continental US. Deliveries will be scheduled as soon after the sale as possible.
• A $50 credit will be given to purchasers who pick up their bulls by April 15th. • A $50 credit will be given to purchasers of multiple bulls. • We will be retaining a 1/2 interest in bulls we designate or wish to collect and use in our herd. They will be noted in this catalog. Semen collection is at buyer’s convenience. Buyer has full possession & full salvage value. • Registration papers will be transferred to the buyer which provides eligibility for RAAA FCCP. • Announcements from sale block take precedence over printed catalog.
PAP SCORES: For the last four years we have been working with Dr. Holt to provide PAP scores on all the bulls. Below is a risk assessment chart that Dr. Holt has put together to help relay the risk level of the bulls offered depending on what elevation they are going to be used. In this effort we have taken the extreme risk bulls, according to Dr. Holt, and culled them from the sale group. These bulls do not go on to sire calves anywhere. This is one of the efforts that we make to improve the genetics
that we offer not only for our high-country producers, but to make a positive impact on the beef industry to lower incidence of brisket disease in the feedyards that your calves will continue on to. We feel that it is our responsibility, as genetic providers, that we look beyond just the traditional traits that impact the overall profitability of the beef production system. If you have any questions about this please contact us or Dr. Holt, he is always happy to help in this effort.

SALE INFORMATION Our Goal: Produce functional cattle for our short grass semi-arid environment and provide honest value and service to our customers.
Our Program: Our program is founded on balanced trait selection using proven sires. We put the emphasis on Carcass, Maintenance, and Reproductive traits including low birth weight and do not chase extreme growth. These traits add value through carcass quality, lower maintenance costs, increased longevity of the females, and reduced labor inputs with the added benefit of the accompanying “convenience traits”. We focus on fertile, easy handling females with mothering ability. The cattle presented here are out of cows that are bred to work within our limited resources, producing calves that excel at weaning, perform in the feedyard and add value on the rail. We hold our females to a “no excuses” production criteria. If they can’t raise a calf every year in our environment they are culled from the herd.
Development Program: The bulls are developed on the ranch. After weaning the bulls are grazed out on pasture for a month and then fed a high-quality roughage ration with a vitaminmineral supplement to gain 3.25 lb./day on average. The bulls are kept in a large dry pen, which gives plenty of exercise. We do not target 1,300 or 1,400 lb. yearling weights. The development program is designed for the bulls to make their own way on the range and hold up to the rigors of their first breeding season. They are guaranteed breeders & ready to work!
Dam of Lot 15 All bulls PAP tested.
Health: Bulls have had their branding, preconditioning, and weaning shots of 5-way BRD, Pasteurella, 7-way Somnus, parasite control, and StayBred VL5. Dr. Shoemaker will fertility test all bulls and the results will be provided for each bull sold.
Ranch Directions: We are located halfway between Sterling & Fort Collins on Highway 14, then 5 miles North on County Road 83.

SALE INFORMATION CATALOG INFORMATION: All EPDs, including carcass, have been updated to reflect the latest performance data including ultrasound and DNA Genomic Panels. Percentile rankings are listed below the EPD table. The measurement data with their in-herd performance ratios are listed in a table just to the right of the pedigree. Scrotal measurements will be on a supplement sheet available sale day and posted on our website as soon as they are completed.
of each EPD is adjusted by a constant which does not change the sensitivity, but moves its average away from zero. Red Angus EPDs are multi-breed and calculated by the BOLT system. The breeds involved are all on the same base and can be directly compared. The percentile ranking we publish represents the rank of the individual in the Red Angus Breed. A 50% percentile rank is the average for the breed.
We present all the data on all the bulls to make your selection easier and more complete! We are available to help you interpret any information in this catalog, give us a call or stop by. Sale day announcements will take precedence over the catalog information.
To compare two bulls, take the difference of their Weaning Weight EPDs to see the expected differences in their progeny. An example would be: bull 1 with a WW of 75 and bull 2 with a WW of 55, bull 1 would produce, on average, a calf crop with a 20 pound higher weaning weight. This simple example shows how the comparison could be applied for each of the traits.
EPDs: Before reading the following definitions, one must come to terms with what is called base. The range

SALE INFORMATION EPD DEFINITIONS HB – HerdBuilder is an index that predicts profit differences between animals based on dollars per mating. This index is designed from ranch all the way through a fed calf marketed on a carcass basis and assumes the ranch retains all calves including replacement heifers. GM – GridMaster is an index that predicts profit difference between animals based on dollars per mating. This index is designed to market all the calves born on ranch through a carcass-based system. CED – Calving Ease Direct is the probability difference expressed as a percentage, between their offspring born unassisted when mated to yearling replacement females to calve at two years of age. IT IS NOT PREDICTIVE FOR COWS! BW – Birth Weight is the birth weight differences, in pounds, between animals’ offspring. WW – Weaning Weight is the 205-day weight differences, in pounds, between animals’ offspring. YW – Yearling Weight is the 365-day weight differences, in pounds, between animals’ offspring. ADG – Average Daily Gain is the weight gain difference, in pounds per day between 205 and 365 days of age, between animals’ offspring.
Milk – Milk is the weaning weight differences, in pounds, attributed to milking ability of the animal’s daughters. HPG – Heifer Pregnancy is the probable difference, expressed as a percentage, of their heifer calves calving at two years of age. CEM – Calving Ease Maternal is the probability differences, expressed as a percentage, between animals that their daughters calve unassisted as 2-year-old heifers. STAY – Stayability is the probability differences, expressed as a percentage, between animals that their daughters will stay in the herd through 6 years of age and calve successfully each year. Marb – Marbling is the difference between animals’ offspring in percent intramuscular fat at the 13th rib, based on a standard marbling score. YG – Yield Grade the difference between animals’ offspring in yield grade of a carcass, expressed in the same units as the USDA Yield Grade Formula which assigns yield grades to carcasses. CW – Carcass Weight is the difference between animals’ offspring carcass weight expressed on a pound basis. REA – Ribeye Area is the difference between animals’ offspring in ribeye area at the 13th rib, expressed as square inches.
DMI – Dry Matter Intake is the difference in intake per day, expressed in pounds per day, between animals’ offspring.

After the sale contact the sale owner or manager to make arrangements for payment and delivery of your online purchases. Please Note: High speed Internet access (DSL, T-1, or Broadband) is required to be able to bid successfully during the sale. If you have any questions, please contact DVAuction at (402) 316-5460 or (402) 4745557 or email support@dvauction.com.
