Yearling Bull Development - Continued Care for Your Bulls

It is so much easier to do a job well when you have the right tools! I really must compliment Dad on helping this particular vision become reality. Our development lot has been very well thought out and designed to develop bulls to have lasting value for you! Oversized pens allow for plenty of exercise and free flowing water and covered feed storage help contribute to overall health and thriftiness of the cattle Well-designed facilities contribute to quiet handling on horseback as well as on foot to contribute to ease of handling for you.

In an effort to ensure longevity in the bulls, we truly “develop” the bulls rather than push them for maximum gain

Targeted weight gain is from 3.0 lbs/day to 3.5 lbs/day. All of the bulls are fed an identical, high roughage ration to fully develop rumen ability and express genetic potential. We rarely need to pull cattle for treatment and feel that you are able to view the bulls in a much more realistic condition than can be found at many other bull sales We are committed to always providing the best possible product to you for the long haul, not just on sale day.

It is our recommendation that you continue to develop these young bulls until turn out, and then restrict them to a defined breeding season at the end of which you gather them and continue to care for them separate from the rest of the bull battery. You are making an investment in the future and a little extra care until these bulls reach 2 years old will contribute greatly to their overall productiveness We would like to suggest the following:

Feed:Remember that these young bulls are still developing and maturing. Be sure to feed them well. Good quality hay, 5 pounds of grain along with about a pound of protein supplement from delivery until turn out should do quite well

Breeding Season and Recommended Number of Cows:

Close observation to be sure your bull is actively servicing females is wise. We suggest limiting the breeding season to 45-60 days for these young bulls for the first year and recommend the following coverage rate based on average non-irrigated pastures

Management:

A well fenced pasture or paddock is a must, especially after the breeding season. Shelter is recommended and bedding is wise when temperatures fall much below freezing. Plenty of clean water and minerals should be available free choice. Treat as needed for internal and external parasites and be sure to include your bulls in a complete vaccination program. An annual breeding soundness exam is a must to determine breeding ability prior to the breeding season – we recommend you do this well in advance of the bull sale season to allow for plenty of selection to replace bulls as needed.
