Rosso Charolais borders Saskatchewan’s largest saline water body, known as Old Wives Lake in the Missouri Coteau Hill Ranch, southwest of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. The native grass is short, so our cows need to be able to adapt and produce. We are excited to offer Pick of Our Females in the 2017 National Charolais Sale. We have been in the Charolais business for over 35 years. During this time, virtually no females have been offered for sale. The cows are managed under ranch conditions and are expected to produce on their own. Structural soundness, fertility, longevity/doability, maternal power and performance are the key traits selected for on the ranch.
ROS 17Z - Roundup daughter
95% of our females calve on their own on the grass in April and May, almost a mile from the yard. We calve later because we sell into a two year old bull market. A handful of females calve in January and February. There are 150 females to select from, of which 25 are Merit Roundup 9608W daughters. In 2017, our females were exposed to: • Rosso Double Down 8Z • WMM Arthur 328A • Rammer Kristoff 515C
ROS 6B • One of 20 LAE X-Ceptional 46X daughters to choose from
• McTavish Hot Hand 34D • MXS Irresistibull 357A • Brimner Bull 36D
and in the Show Ring!
Selection of the female must be made by February 1, 2018.
