What a great time to be in the cattle business! It’s fun to see the commercial cattle producers being rewarded with strong cattle prices! Hopefully this trend lasts a while longer! In 2024, we had more bulls born than heifers, so this year we are offering more than 120 bulls again! There are 44 black Purebred bulls, 43 black SimAngus bulls, 28 red Simmental/SimAngus bulls and 8 Purebred Red Angus in the sale this year. We are proud to offer so many Purebred Simmental bulls to our customers and not all SimAngus! We really love the SimAngus cross, especially the females, but we also know that many of our customers need a Purebred to cross on their own cows. We will always strive to offer both to our customers. The increased fertility, productivity and longevity gained from the SimAngus female is unmatched. We urge all our customers to utilize heterosis in some manner. As we said last year, we are focused on balance in our herd. You won’t find the extreme top 1% API and TI bulls in our offering, but you will find balanced EPDs with correct structure, good feet, good dispositions and they will come from females with great udders and maternal ability. In past years,
we have also retained ownership of our steers and obtained carcass data that has been submitted to American Simmental to be utilized in the data. We have proved that we can make 90% choice or higher with our genetics. Going forward, this will be more important than ever with the premiums and discounts getting higher. In the future, we would like to offer our customers the opportunity to market their commercial yearling heifers in our sale! Please contact us if you are interested. We would sell them by video, and they would not be brought to our place for sale day. Plan ahead and let us know if this is something that interests you for next year! Please join us on sale day, February 8, at our ranch at Leeds, ND! If you can’t make it on sale day, please consider stopping out prior to the sale and getting your name in the drawing for a $500 sale credit! Contact us to go over any of the bulls over the phone ahead of time too. We would love to help you find what you need! Sincerely, Kenner Simmental Ranch
