About these Bulls...
The Nebraska Bull Test, LLC bulls were tested at Rohde Farms
of Mason City, NE and only the top performing bulls are offered
in this sale. The test is open to all breeds but only registered
bulls are accepted for test. Complete performance information is pro-
vided for each bull including the following:
ADJUSTED 205-DAY WEANING WEIGHT
- This is an
adjusted weight recorded on the ranch which takes into account
difference in age and sex of calf and age of dam. All weaning
weights are adjusted to 205 days, male sex, and to a mature cow
standard (5-8 years of age.)
GAIN ON TEST
- The daily gain on test is measured over a 120-
day period. All bulls should be in a conditioning period for 21
days before beginning a test.
WEIGHT PER DAY OF AGE
- This is the bulls’ weight divided by
his age (in days) at the end of the test.
FINAL INDEX
- is based on an index of 2/3 average daily gain
on test ratio and 1/3 weight per day of age ratio. All ratios are
calculated within breed group.
FERTILITY
- All bulls that sell have been fertility tested and
examined for reproductive soundness by Dr. Russ Rice D.V.M..
Any bulls that did not pass this examination have been removed
from the sale. All other guarantees will be between the buyer
and seller. The Nebraska Bull Test, LLC, its Board of Directors,
officers and management make no further guarantees.
EXPECTED PROGENY DIFFERENCE

furnished from each breed’s association through their
performance records program.
ULTRASOUND

the ultrasound data on a supplement sheet on sale date.
CALVING EASE (CE)
- The calving ease bulls designated in this
catalog are bulls that the individual breeders feel would work
on heifers. There are no requirements for calving ease bulls
other than the breeders’ recommendations. The calving ease
designated bulls are ratioed with the other bulls of that breed.
