In 1994 the nation’s cow herd was decreasing and the cattle feeding industry had concentrated. Just adding pay weight and carcass quality were not enough. Our bull customers needed sale prices that reflected not only their dave nichols genetic inputs, but the healthy, vaccinated, and problem free feeder calves that hit the feedlot gaining. I hired Ross Havens primarily to keep our commercial cow/calf customers in business. Our first genetic source feeder auction added $65 per head when fiveweight steer calves were selling for $55 — $58 cwt. Since that sale we’ve sold about 60,000 calves in Nichols Genetic Source Auctions. We out grew our start up model and have transitioned to working with a multitude of auction barns and video auctions across the mid-west and high plains. And we do it without collecting a cent of commission from anyone! At the December “Green Tag Sale� at the Creston Livestock Auction, over 1,000 Nichols sired calves weighed more and sold higher than “popular brand X� calves. The Nichols steers weighed 128 lbs more and the heifers 92 lbs. Both sold higher within their weight. range. Make no mistake— cross breeding, true performance, and the reputation of the Nichols Brand were key.
