COMMERCIAL FEMALES
The GENPLUS partners, as well as our commercial customers that have consigned females to this offering, continually strive to offer the industry the highest quality and most genetically superior commercial females available. We utilize the majority of tools available to us such as AI’ing to the most genetically superior calving ease bulls, the utilization of genetics that have been parent verified, many of which have genomically enhanced EPD’s, plus data compilation and transfer to the IBBA from birth to weaning to more accurately identify the lineage of the genetics behind this offering.
We do, however, in no way quantify the progeny of these commercial genetics to be kept as intact males for use as sires in the industry. We are definitely proud of what we are offering, and without a doubt feel they are an asset to generate increased productivity for the programs purchasing them. It is our belief that for the beef industry to stay competitive with the other protein sources available that the male progeny from this genetic pool being offered do not meet the standards necessary to move our industry forward to use as breeding bulls and should be made steers as we intended.
HOW THEY WILL SELL
Heifers will be penned at the sale site in pens ranging in number from 10 to 25 head. We will video the cattle as a pen and will show that video as that pen of cattle is being sold. The cattle will not be run through the ring but as stated earlier most can be viewed at the sale site prior to the sale in their pen. We will produce a sale order for cattle selling and each pen will be split into several groups. As each pen comes up for sale we will sell the first group and the
winning bidder will have, at the discretion of the sale personnel and auctioneer, the right to purchase the next group of cattle in that pen and each succeeding group of cattle in that pen until that pen is sold. If the purchaser does not take the option to buy the next group of cattle that group will be sold and, at our discretion, that buyer will be given an option until that pen is sold and we proceed onto the next pen of females.
