Chimney Butte Sale Catalog 2021 Updated by PeltonLivestock

Welcome to our 2021 Sale Thank you to all our past customers, and a warm welcome to all our new guests. We welcome all, in person, on line, on the telephone or by third party proxy. We appreciate your interest in our program. Events of the last 12 months have affected all of our lives in some form or another. We will not dwell on any of these events, but will stress the changes we have made adjusting to the many changes and concerns. First of all, at the urging of many customers, we are moving the sale to the ranch. One of the big changes we are making is that all bulls will be in display pens for one week prior to the sale. This will allow those with health concerns to look over the offering without concerns of being in a crowded situation. Please let us know if you will be coming to preview bulls before the sale, we will have a hot cup of coffee for you. The sale will be a video sale with no animals going thru the auction ring. This has become an accepted method of selling seed stock in the past few years.

Friday, March 5, 2021 1 p.m. CST • At the RANCH • Mandan, ND. 701-663-9573 • 1-800-732-1163 no sire input. They are not official DNA derived numbers. The DNA results will be published on line and a flyer will be sent as soon as they are available. We know this is inconvenient, but work at Igenity is slowed due to the virus, and less than full staffing capabilities. In spite of all the turmoil, challenges and changes, our mission to our customers remain unchanged, “TO PROVIDE GENETICS THAT HELP INCREASE OUR CUSTOMERS PROFITS”.

Directions and a map are in the catalogue. “PLEASE DO NOT USE GPS WITHOUT REFERRING TO THE MAP, SOME SERVICES WILL GIVE YOU A VERY INTERESTING ROUTE”. If you have questions or need assistance please call.

After reviewing the data, looking at the catalogue, and watching the videos, please feel free to contact us regarding any animals. We will be happy to discuss specific animals with you.

We have adopted the practice of using multiple sires in all breeding pastures. The range management results and breed up have been very successful. One of the shortcomings of this management tool is that all calves need to be DNA parent verified which takes extra time. At the present time, IGENITY, the AGA contractor to do the DNA analysis is backlogged and has not given us our DNA results. The catalogue has calculated EPD’s based on dam traits and have

If you physically come to the sale, watch or bid on DV Auction, phone bid, or have someone bid for you, be assured we will work to make your purchase a very satisfying experience. YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION IS IMPORTANT TO US. GOD BLESS Doug, Carol, and family

His mother is one of the last Majesty daughters we have in production, she is a flush mate to the X107 bull and has a weaning ratio of 108. She would be a dam of merit, but broke her ankle as a calf before breeding, we held her open for a year to heal. This bull stands on his own. High 205 weight bull for the year, great structure, big volume, and definitely seed stock quality. Look close, there are few bulls offered this good. Retaining 50% semen interest.

GELBVIEH& The Maternal Edge on Efficiency

INCREASED EFFICIENCY

GREATER LONGEVITY

IMPROVED DOCILITY

With a more moderate mature cow size, Gelbvieh females consume less while weaning heavier calves.

Gelbvieh cows excel in stayability according to research conducted at Colorado State University.

Docility is one of the most valued Gelbvieh traits among commercial cattle producers.

MATERNAL SUPERIORITY

Gelbvieh cattle offer the maternal advantage through moderate mature weights, quiet dispositions, added fertility and greater longevity. Gelbvieh ranks #1 for moderate mature cow size and are the earliest to mature of the seven major beef breeds (U.S. Meat Animal Research Center, progress report #22).

“Gelbvieh is the mother breed. -22- No question about it!”

-Bill Tucker, Tucker Family Farms, Amherst, Va.

DELIVERING THE VALUE

Steers in the 2018 AGA Scale and Rail Contest had an average daily gain of 4 lbs. per day in the feedyard.

Many feeders have reported Balancer-sired cattle that grade 90% Choice or better.

Gelbvieh ranks #1 for percent retail product according to U.S. Meat Animal Research Center progress report #22.

PROVIDING VALUE ON THE RAIL Carcass data from 302 head of 2016-born Balancer steer and heifer calves fed in Amherst, Nebraska, and harvested at Tyson Fresh Meats in Lexington, Nebraska, prove Balancer cattle are the smart choice for feedyard profitability. These Balancer-influenced calves averaged 93% yield grade 1, 2, or 3, and 98% Choice and Prime quality grade.
