Dear Friends, Welcome to the 4 th Annual Right on Red Sale! We are honored and humbled with your interest in the Red Angus genetics offered. A lot of thought, effort and planning went into bringing you a set of cattle that are sound, func - tional and suited to move the US beef industry forward. It seems like yesterday when leaders of the New York Red Angus Association began a discussion of what could the association do for its members. What were the pressing matters affecting the majority of members? Many ideas were placed on the table, but the discussion kept returning to the difficulty of raising replacement heifers and developing bulls while coping with the winter weather and individual farm space constraints. From this idea, the reality of a development program materalized after a lot of one-on-one visits with members, which led to enthusiam for the program. What have we learned in 4 years? The simple and true answer is A LOT! However, the bottom line is there are exceptional red genetics being created by amazing breeders in not only New York State, but surrounding states. In November 2025, the majority of the yearling bulls and females in this offering began a development program at Erwindale Farms in Waterloo, NY. These cattle have been developed on a high forage diet and continually assessed for structural correctness, optimal growth and measured for carcass characteristics using ultrasound technology. Additionally, all bulls have passed a breeding soundness exam. Bulls 18 months or older have been tested for and are negative for Trich. Breeders also had the opportunity to develop heifers and bulls at home as well as consign bred females, cow/ calf pairs, embryos and semen. All cattle, whether developed at Erwindale Farms or at home, followed a rigorous vaccination protocol and will settle nicely into your herd. The cattle found in this offering are the result of decades of breeding program decisions in pursuit of producing industry leading functional genetics that ultimately impact the American consumer. Today’s Red Angus cattle are known for their high maternal approach to the beef business combined with efficiency and docility. These traits not only serve the cow/calf producer well, but also provide the entire beef business with the quality product the market demands. We hope you can join us on Saturday, April 25, 2026.
