elcome to our 2019 Private Treaty Bull Sale...

Once again, we offer to you, our select group of bulls in 2019.

We feel that this is our best crop of young sires yet. We have thoroughly critiqued through the group; 2/3 of the bull calf crop have been steered and sold. What remains is a strong set of sound, high performing, functional individuals. Docility and structural integrity are at the forefront of the necessary qualities to remain in the pen. There are low birthweight options and high performance choices available.

Likely with the most presence and style in the pen, 74 is catching all kinds of attention. He has a massive hip, and a very long spine carrying on up into a very masculine front with a great skull. He is all kinds of cool in our opinion, and has a ton of potential in any setting. His mother is a beautiful cow, and goes back to a Corner Creek Cash 2R daughter. His sire needs no introduction, a cornerstone in the great U2 herd.

Every year we keep over and breed a select group of replacements from our commercial cow herd to sell as a group in the fall. These females are F1 crossed,

out of purebred angus and red angus sires, on Hereford mothers. The group is high in quality and is thoroughly culled through three times before they are grouped for sale. They are pregnancy checked safe to services on proven low birth weight angus bulls, fully vaccinated, and posted for sale by private treaty each fall. These heifers are hardy, fleshy, hairy, sound and quiet. They are the top of the heap, and we believe they will make excellent additions to any program.

From the heart of the herd...

Easily one of the fanciest in the pen, we campaigned this bull as a calf. He is long and deep bodied, and carries himself beautifully. A favorite of ours, out of a top producing female that hits the bull pen every year. A maternal brother sells in the yearling pen.

One of our top candidates to keep back and use ourselves. We only through in one straw of Torant in 2017, and the results could not have been better. We have yet to find a more consistant sire who has done more for our program. The Torant females are the base of our entire commercial cow herd.

The entire pen was pictured the first week of January, putting the bulls at less than 60 days on their feed ration, and anywhere between 1 and 4 months before they turn one year of age.

Come late spring time, when the majority of camparable aged bulls will sell, the pen will have gained a substantial amount of weight and will have matured significantly.

Very long spined and a ton of hair. Another great Hugo son. Red to the cheek, he has a lot of eye appeal in the pen. Consistency and longevity at work.

Our bulls are weaned off of their mothers in October, and started on a TMR ration of silage, oats, and hay.

They are weighed initially, and also in each month following to ensure that they are gaining accordingly, and to record performance data on each animal individually. We cull through the pen on an ongoing basis, and we believe that every bull calf does not make a herd sire. We steer about 2/3 of our bull calves each year, and we sell only the best of what we have to offer. Each bull is semen tested and guaranteed. We try to improve the pen every year, and ensure that each bull calf has a sound, strong mother to back him up. We do not sell calves that are slow to start, excessive birthweights, or those that have had health issues along the way. We do not alter birth dates, and we are comparing the weaning on actual weights, eliminating all adjusted factors. Putting the pen to an honest ‘what you see is what you get’ level. We are happy to help with any questions you may have regarding bulls, and we are always willing to give tours of both the sale bulls, and their respective sires and dams.

Our guarantee is to the standard of the Canadian Hereford Association and the Canadian Angus Association.

We highly recommend all animals be insured if they are to remain at Redline until breeding.

Thank-You 33

Travis and Becky Page, along with their kids, Joni, Grady, Morgan, and Orin, operate Redline Livestock near Didsbury Alberta. The ranch is located less than an hour’s drive north-east of Calgary International Airport, about 20 Miles East of Didsbury, AB on the #582 Highway. Largely based around livestock, the operation consists of about 400 breeding females. The seedstock portion being about half of the overall numbers, is divided between two breeds; Red/Black Angus and Polled Herefords. The commercial herd is based around non registered polled Hereford cows, bred to purebred angus bulls. The commercial calf crop each year is bred to be majority F1 crossed calves.

Over the past year, we have began changing and evolving our breeding program into what we hope will be a very functional, high quality, and profitable herd going forward.

We are aiming to expand our commercial numbers into the F1 program, and provide larger groups of sale heifers.

In combination; we are tightening numbers in the purebred herds to really focus on the functionality of our females.

We have taken the direction in building our genetics by very selective culling. If there is something we have learned as new breeders in the industry, it is that you cannot build a profitable herd by adding select cows, one at a time. A ‘good’ cow alone cannot build a foundation you can bank on. The cows that raise the top one fall do not always rise to be at the top consistently. We do not keep back open cows, and we expose our bulls for 75 days.

We hope to continue shortening our breeding exposures to 60 days, and in turn pushing the reprodcutivity of our herd. Along the way we have said goodbye to cattle that might have once raised ‘the top calf’, but weren’t able to maintain the progressive standards needed for today’s cattlemen. we can’t all source a herd of ideal females; we start with a group of good cows; cull hard, and make them.
