Welcome to our 40th Annual Season Opener Sale. Over the past 50 plus years we have built a high performance cowherd that weans a high percentage of bodyweight. We have prioritized efficiency and performance. As has been much discussed, we are in unprecedented times in the cow-calf industry. All signs point to calf prices staying elevated, and as many of our customers have realized, “pounds pay the bills”. Selecting genetics that will maximize profitability at either weaning or yearling time has allowed our bull customers to experience some of their best times yet. Where we at B&D Herefords & Angus truly pride ourselves is on the maternal side. While the steer calves sired by this bull offering will put you on the top end when you market them, where these bulls set themselves apart is siring replacement daughters. The U.S. cowherd inventory remains at historic lows, and we are starting to see the cowman keep daughters back to build herd numbers. Pay close attention to the data on the bulls selling. We keep a close watch on the maternal production on each one of these dams, and most of these bulls come from cows & cow-families that are strong producers at weaning time. This highly heritable maternal production ensures that the daughters from both our Angus & Hereford bulls will sire females with longevity & strong maternal traits. As we always do in our Season Opener Sale, we are selling a select group of commercial spring pairs, both Black Baldy & Angus. These females are backed by the same great maternal performance & genetics as our bulls. With current female demand, we are confident these pairs will make foundation cows for their new owners. As always, the bulls & cows will sell on video, and we will be live on DVAuction for sale day. We welcome visitors to the ranch anytime to view this set of genetics, and if at anytime you have questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We look forward to seeing you at The Season Opener!
Sincerely,
Craig Beran B&D Herefords and Angus beranbrothers@hbcomm.net
