We want to welcome everyone to our annual spring bull sale. We believe that this is not only our largest set of bulls to offer but
most importantly the quality in these bulls is deep!
The sires of these bulls represent the most highly proven multi-trait leaders in each breed. We strive in all of our mating decisions
to utilize proven AI sires that will give us the predictability of maternal and performance, ultimately impacting our customers’ pro-
grams. Several of the bulls selling meet Missouri Show Me Select and Angus Advantage Plus programs - an abundance of good calv-
ing-ease and growth bulls to select from is being offered. Our bulls are all developed in large contemporary groups in large paddocks
and we believe you will appreciate the condition and usefulness of the bulls. They have been hand-fed (no self feeders) and walked
through every day so, as a group, they are very docile. Also, this offering represents multiple generations of fescue tolerant cattle!
Each bull has passed a Breeding Soundness Exam by a
veterinarian and will have had a full round of vaccinations
plus de-worming. Complete performance and ultrasound
data are provided in the book and each bull is free from BVD
persistent infection.
VIDEO FOOTAGE ON EVERY BULL IS AVAILABLE at
and YOU CAN BID ONLINE AT
DVAuction! ALSO, WE ARE PFIZER HD 50K TESTING
A SELECT SET OF BULLS AND CAN PROVIDE THAT
INFORMATION UPON REQUEST!
Please feel free to call us for any questions, and we wel-
come anyone to stop by and review this offering before the
sale.
Sincerely,
Alan Mead
