Hawks, Grand Valley Gelbvieh/Balancers, Greenhill Gelbvieh, Guymon Livestock, McCarty Cattle Co., Peach Valley Farms, ProHart Seedstock, VandenHoek Ranch, Veltri Gelbvieh, and YJ Mountain Ranch Gelbvieh 20 Wt. - This is the weaning weight adjusted to 20 days of age. For example: a bull weighs 0# at 220 days old with an 0# 0# - 0# = 0# (weight gained in 220 days) 0# divided by 220 days = 2.#/day 2.# per day x 20 days = 31# 31# + 0# (birth weight) = # An age of dam adjustment is added so that older cows or heifers can be compared to the average cow. These 20 day weights are figured by the animal s respective breed office. These adjusted numbers are useful for within herd comparison where environmental factors are the same. Scrotal Circumference - is a measurement taken to help deter mine if a bull s heifer calves will reach puberty earlier than any other bull s and also sperm production is directly proportional to scrotal size. As of now there is no adjustment for age, but 32 cm for a one year old and 3 cm for a 2 year old is a good standard. Remember that a month old bull will have a good scrotal size at one year if he measures 2 cm. P.A.P. or Pulmonary Artery Pressure - is an indication of a bull s genetic ability to tolerate high altitudes. The higher the P.A.P. score the lower the altitude the bull should be maintained at. Bulls that develop brisket may or may not have a genetic problem, but may be the result of an environmental influence such as sickness, feed, or stress. Dr. Tim Holt recommends that bulls with a P.A.P. score greater than 4 be used at elevations lower than,000 feet. The bulls have been P.A.P. tested at an elevation of,2 feet. (Montrose, Colorado) Genetic Defects - We have searched all pedigrees to the best of our ability and all bulls selling are free from any known defects. About the Bulls - The bulls have all been fed together. Our goal was to average a 3.3# A.D.G. We believe that fat bulls are not practical. The 3.3# per day is enough growth for a group, knowing some will exceed this rate due to genetics or due to the bull s ability to consume more feed than others (temperment, environment, etc.). The bulls have been vaccinated with way, Cattle Master 4 (or equivalent), One Shot (or equivalent), Fusogard, Myco-Bac B, and Inforce 3. All bulls have been wormed with Dectomax and have been fertility and P.A.P. tested. All bulls - Trich and PI-BVD tested negative. Average daily gain and scrotal circumference will be available on sale day. Bulls traveling to UT, NM, WY, AZ, and ID - All Pot of Gold bulls sold will have been tested once for trichomoniasis, found negative, and ready to haul sale day. The veterinarian will write a health and entry permit for you. Hauling of Bulls/Feed - All bulls may be hauled directly from the sale or can be delivered to central locations as needed. Bulls can be fed at Flowers Farm (Feedlot) for $2.0 per yearling bull per day and $2.0 per two year old bull per day until April 1th. Pot of Gold can help with these arrangements but the owner of the bull(s) will be responsible for all vet costs, feed costs, and liability on the bull(s).

3 Dear Fellow Cattle Producer, Welcome to the 2th annual Pot of Gold Gelbvieh, Angus, and Balancer Bull Sale! What is your criteria when selecting your replacement bull(s)? Producers look at the outside of the bull for good feet and legs, thickness, or smooth shoulders just to name a few traits. You also need to examine the inside traits that help bring profit to your operation such as calving ease, disposition, growth, carcass traits, and maternal qualities. Through DNA and you have a greater opportunity to bring genetic improvements to your herd than in years past. The bulls offered are selected from cattle that are efficient, wean off a high percentage of their body weight, and are still working as - year olds (stayability). Cows that breed back and stay in the herd another year will make your operation profitable! As Pot of Gold we have done our best to prepare the bulls for their future which is to breed cows. Now it is your turn as new bull owners to care for these bulls in a way that gives them optimum conditions to flourish, grow, and breed. Please check out page 2 of the catalog for more details on maintaining yearling bulls after you take them home to your ranch. If you have additional questions give us a call. Again this year, we have Genomic Enhanced on many of the bulls offered. The bulls tested in this way will have a GEN Y designation just under the lot number of the bull. Genetic Enhanced result in more accurate for bulls and females two to four years sooner compared to using pedigree and performance information alone. See page 1 for more details. You will also notice these abbreviations: (stayability) and (feeder profit index) on each bull. Bulls sold into Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming, Arizona, and Idaho can all be hauled the day of the sale! Mortality and/or loss of use insurance will be available to purchase sale day. In the event you are unable to attend the sale, there are two ways to participate: First, you can watch the sale live and bid on-line from your own computer. You must sign up with dvauction.com prior to the sale, (preferably a day or two before) to make sure your internet speed is accommodating. Secondly, feel free to use our satisfaction guarantee on all phone orders! (See page opposite for sale day phone numbers). Videos of the cataloged bulls will be available for viewing the middle of February at gelbviehbulls.net or dvauction.com. Check out the bulls in the sale pens the day before the sale or arrive early on sale day, Friday, February 23rd to decide which Gelbvieh, Angus, and Balancer bulls will work best for you. The sale starts at :00 noon just after our complimentary lunch. If inclement weather prevents you from bringing your trailer or you want to grow your bulls for a longer period, Flowers Farms will feed your bulls until you are ready to pick them up. We look forward to seeing you and your neighbors!

Impacting Profit with Gelbvieh and Balancer Females Gelbvieh and Balancer cattle offer maternal superiority through increased longevity, added fertility and more pounds of calf weaned per cow exposed. In addition, Gelbvieh and Balancer females offer a small mature cow size, more maternal milk and reach puberty at an earlier age. U.S. Meat Animal Research Center data shows Gelbvieh females have the smallest mature cow size of the four major Continental breeds. The Gelbvieh breed was the only breed in the study to reduce mature cow sizeat an average of 1,32 pounds Gelbvieh-sired females had the lowest fiveyear-old cow weight. This reduced mature cow-size allows for puberty to be reached at an earlier age, which leads to calving earlier in the season and producing a calf at a younger age. These females are able to wean heavier calves while still maintaining low birth weights and a tight calving interval year after year. Gelbvieh and Balancer females also excel in stayability, which is the probability a bull s daughters will remain in the cow herd until at least six years of age. With the high costs associated with the development or purchase of replacement females, sustained reproduction is essential in a herd. U.S. MARC data, along with American Gelbvieh Association genetic trends, prove that today s Gelbvieh and Balancer cows are highly productive, offering increased longevity, more manageable mature cow weights, early puberty, quiet disposition and have the ability to calve unassisted while delivering consistent growth. With stayability and cow productivity being important factors in cowcalf profitability, adding Gelbvieh and Balancer maternal influence through a crossbreeding program is a great option for commercial producers.

20 EPD Definitions Listed below is a partial list of the definitions of American Gelbvieh Association and the units in which they are published.. MATERNAL TRAITS Calving ease direct (): Percent of unassisted births of a bull s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd. Milk (Milk): The genetic ability of a sire s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight. Calving ease maternal (): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire s first-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers. Stayability (): Predicts the genetic difference, in terms of percent probability, that a bull s daughters will stay productive within a herd to at least six year of age. The stayability EPD is one of the best measures currently available to compare a bull s ability to produce females with reproductive longevity. GROWTH TRAITS Birth weight (): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf. Weaning weight (): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 20 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning. Yearling weight (): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 3 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling. CARCASS TRAITS Yield grade (YG): Differences in yield grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Smaller values suggest that progeny will ha ve a better lean to fat ratio. Carcass weight (CW): Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint. Ribeye area (A): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the th and th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable. Marbling (): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units. Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass quality grades. INDEXES Indexes are tools that allow producers to select for several at once, making selections more efficient than selecting on one trait at a time. Indexes weigh traits based on their importance to a producer s bottom line by using a trait s economic and genetic value. Indexes are a good way to put selection emphasis on traits that are economically relevant. Total maternal (TM): An index that combines growth and milk information as a prediction of the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire s daughters. As an index, this value is not reported with an accompanying accuracy. A greater TM value means a mother that returns comparatively higher weaning weights on her calves. TM Index = EPD + ½ EPD. $Cow: Represents the genetic value in dollars of profit of an animal when retained as a replacement female relative to other animals in the herd. A higher number represents more profitable genetics for maternal productivity. $Cow will serve producers in selecting bulls that will sire daughters with stayability and reproductive efficiency as well as other traits that lead to profitability in a production system, such as milk, calving ease, moderate mature weight and the ability of calves to gain. A female s genetics also influence the performance of her calves in the feedlot and at slaughter, so traits such as feed efficiency and carcass value are also included in $Cow. Efficiency profit index (EPI): An economic selection index developed to aid producers in selecting for more feed efficient cattle that still have acceptable amounts of gain. The EPI provides slight negative pressure on intake, while keeping gain at a constant value. By selecting on this index, producers will be able to find those animals that gain the same amount as their contemporaries while eating less. Feeder Profit Index (): An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on a grade and yield standpoint. Well ranking sires for have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease.

21 How Genomic-Enhanced EPDS Impact Bull Buying Decisions American Gelbvieh Association s (AGA) Genomic-Enhanced (GE-) provide Gelbvieh and Balancer breeders and their commercial producers the ability to more accurately identify young individuals with the right genetics needed to accelerate genetic improvement in their respective herds. GE- result in more accurate for bulls and females two to four years sooner when compared to using pedigree and performance information alone. The information can be used to more accurately select sires that excel in feedlot and carcass traits or choose bulls that can be used on replacement heifers with increased confidence. Bottom line, GE- allow bull buyers to make smarter, better informed bull and female buying decisions backed by more accurate. This saves time and money, reduces risk and accelerates the rate of genetic progress. Contact the AGA to find out more about GE- by calling or visiting the AGA website at HOW TO FOLLOW THE DNA TRAIL HOW DO I KNOW IF A BULL HAS GENOMIC ENHAN EPDS? On the left side of the bull box, just under the lot number it says: GEN Y or GEN N GEN Y = GENOMIC ENHAN YES (YES TEED FOR THE ENHAN ) GEN N = GENOMIC ENHAN NO (NOT TEED FOR THE ENHAN ) FOR HOMOZYGOUS BLACK DNA SULTS: Black (Homo - D) = DNA tested homozygous black Black (not Homo - D) = DNA tested but not homozygous black FOR HOMOZYGOUS POLLED DNA SULTS: Polled (Homo - D) = DNA tested homozygous polled Polled (not Homo - D) = DNA tested but not homozygous polled GELBVIEH The Continental Breed of Choice, red meat/yield grade, early puberty, good disposition, maternal, and growth.

30 BULL MAINTENANCE AFTER THE SALE The Pot of Gold bulls have been vaccinated, poured, fed, tested and are ready to go to work on sale day, but they are not mature bulls and are still growing. Bulls do not need to be fat at turn out, but you do want bulls that are healthy and have enough body condition to use as a reserve when they are turned out and spend all their time chasing cows and not eating as they should. Yearling bulls may lose more than0 pounds during their first breeding season so it is important to adequately feed them after servicing cows so that they are in good shape for the next breeding season. At a minimum, the yearling bulls should be gaining weight and maintain a body condition score of - which means that you cannot see the ribs and the back bone. (The animal does not have any fat lumps in the flank or tail head.) The yearling bulls fed at Flowers Farm after the sale for our customers are targeted for a 2 pound a day gain. The ration is # of corn per day and all the hay and silage they can eat which is approximately 2# per day. The hay is of good quality and the total protein in the feed mix is % minimum. Quality vitamins, minerals, and salt should be available year-round and a high copper supplement used in areas that are deficient in copper whether at home or in the high country. Often times bulls that come home thin in the fall have not obtained adequate nutrition from the late summer feeds that are drying up. A constant supply of vitamins and minerals is essential for maintaining weight and growth. Yearling bulls should not be kept or fed with older bulls because there is a greater chance of injury and the younger bulls can not compete getting to the feed bunk. Allow them adequate space in the pasture or in a pen for exercise. In the winter provide good bedding and windbreaks and in the summer shade and fly control. It is best to use yearling bulls for a maximum of 0 days in the breeding pasture. Check frequently for injury, their servicing ability, and body condition. If at all possible do not put yearling bulls in the same breeding pasture as mature or bigger bulls. FEEDER Finder The source to find Gelbvieh and Balancer -influenced feeder cattle.
