In addition, his marbling EPD ranks in the top 2%, with the ribeye EPD in the top 25%. His All-Purpose Index ranks in the top 1% and the Terminal Index is in the top 3%.

05Y Chad's 50% Simmental / 50% Angus hybrid bull calf was the growth leader this year, with the heaviest weaning weight. But he retains a Birthweight EPD in the top 25% of hybrid Simmental, with a top 1% ranking for marbling and top 3% for both API and Terminal Index. He's a real meat-wagon, who is thick, deep-sided and soggy. Don't let his frozen ears distract you. He took a cold start to life and turned into a real beef bull.

REPLACEMENT HEIFERS
We have 64 black and black white-face replacement quality heifers for sale. A number of these are home-raised Simmental and SimAngus out of our clean-up bulls. The rest of the load is made up of some top-quality heifers purchased this fall. The heifers have been weaned since October, when they were vaccinated with Bovi-Shield Gold and seven-way. They were revaccinated with Bovi-Shield two weeks after weaning and also received a generic ivermectin pour-on. The heifers have also been officially calfhood vaccinated for Brucellosis. They have been on a grow ration of corn stalks, corn and distiller's grain since weaning and are in great shape for breeding this spring. Give us a call if you're interested in a nice set of replacement heifers.
• We have both yearling bulls and replacement heifers for sale. See the "For sale" page on this sight for highlights.
