We invite you to attend our 2019 Production Sale, literally 85 years in the making. The Cross family started with Herefords in 1934, that’s five generations of us! The goal all along has been to produce genetics that work in the commercial industry, selection that combines practicality with 21st century science and bottom line economics. We measure all performance traits but also run our cow herd in a manner that eliminates the need for extra labour, utilize the forage and winter grazing opportunities, calve in April and May on pasture, and have a short breeding season to select for fertility. Doing these extra things allows us to select for the “invisible traits.

Our job is to produce breeding stock that increases value in your calf crop and reduces costs at the same time, meaning more profit. No chasing trends, just simple math.

After dealing with chronic health issues in the last seven years, Jay made the dif-ficult decision to sell the mature cow herd in 2018 and so this will be the last Bar Pipe production sale. We have held nothing back as ALL of our bulls and heifers will be sold except those bred and owned by Jay’s children Andrew and Emma. With 85 years of breeding behind them, we are confident this uniform set of cattle will improve any breeding program. As always, we stand behind them all.

Generation after generation, same trusted brand.

The cattle are ready to view any time prior to the sale, just give us a call and we’ll have coffee and cookies ready! You can also visit our website at www.barpipe.com for more information about our breeding program and videos on the entire sale offering.

Cracker Jack was in Delaney Hereford’s Reserve Champion Carload at Denver. We saw him there and purchased him at their sale along with Lilybrook Herefords. 23A is an extremely easy-doing bull and he has certainly passed that trait along to his offspring. He has extra length and muscle and is smooth made with a great profile. He was the sire of Emma’s Bonanza 2016 Reserve Champion Bred and Owned Bulll and Bar Pipe’s high selling bull at the Medicine Hat Bull Sale for $11,500 to Holloway Farms. Cracker Jack daughters have really impressed us, they have beautiful udders and are super mothers. 23A is a trait leader for Cow Weight, Udder Suspension, Teat Size, Post Weaning Gain and Rib Eye Area. We used him as an AI sire and have one bull and two feature heifers in the sale.

His sons should follow suit, easy calving yet plenty of growth to weaning and yearling. He has a strong maternal background and his first daughters calved in spring 2019.

He is free moving and tracks wide. Lots of performance here with the highest index at both weaning and yearling in a contemporary group of 55. His Anchor dam was a deep bodied, easy doing cow with a near perfect udder. Her first bull sold to Byemoor Farming. We used 38F on a group of Doug, Judy and Emma’s cows and he maintained enough condition to be shown in Bonanza where he placed second in the youngest yearling class.

We are very proud to offer an outstanding set of heifers as a finale to the Bar Pipe breeding program. We have held nothing back and this offering is a testament to the breeding goals we have achieved. With difficulty we have sorted out 16 heifers to be sold as individuals. After the first 16heifers the remaining ones will be sold in groups, sorted by sire group and type, as much as possible so the buyer will have a uniform and consistent package. Packages will be sold in groups of 3 to 5. All heifers will have Ivermectin Pour On and their first shot of scour vaccine.

This May heifer is sharp fronted and deep-sided. Daughters of the Brost bull have tight udders and he is a trait leader for WW, YW, Milk, Total Maternal and Marbling.

The heifer calves are out of good cows that were too old to make the trip to Wyoming along with the rest to Durbin Creek. They have all produced replacements and sale bulls. These calves have promising futures.

The heifer calves will be pre-conditioned and will be weaned by the end of October.

How to read the numbers…The raw numbers – We know from discussions with customers that some like the actual performance data, and others EPDs, and so we provide both. We give you an actual birth weight (BW), adjusted weaning and yearling weights respectively so that you can compare different aged bulls. Weight per day of age (WPDA) is also shown for these two weights. Ultrasound was used to assess carcass rib eye area and marbling (% intramuscular fat).

Expected Progeny Difference (EPD) is a measure of the trait value of an animal, calculated as the difference in expected performance of progeny from that animal, compared to others of average genetic merit. EPDs are estimated not just from the phenotype of the animal but also it’s relatives and progeny, and also depends on the heritability of the trait. EPDs are reported in units of measure for the trait (e.g., lbs, cm, %). Accuracy of EPDs is the correlation between an animal’s EPD and its actual breeding value. Accuracies are normally low unless traits have been measured and until the animal has reported progeny. Four the last four year, we have added genomics testing on the sale bulls which gives us a picture of the actual gene variants inherited from the parents, giving us an immediate increase in EPD accuracy equivalent to a crop of calves. The accuracies for sale cattle can be found at www.hereford.ca, or give us a call.

The Canadian Hereford Association publishes 17 EPDs (www.hereford.ca) but we have listed the ones in the catalogue that we think are most relevant to our customers:. The EPDs listed are current at the time of publication. CE - calving ease, BW – birth weight, WW - weaning weight, YW - yearling weight, M – contribution of milk production to calf growth, TM – “total maternal” combines maternal contribution to WW through both milk produc-tion and genetic growth potential, REA - ribeye area, MAR – marbling. MPI – (maternal productivity index) is an index that gives economic weighting to CE, WW, M, mature cow weight, and stayablility.

Our program is geared to creating value for our customers. We measure and select for all traits that have a positive effect on your bottom line! This focus on profitability means that we pay attention to the fundamentals and that our customers can buy with confidence.

creatingValueWe run our cowherd in a manner that eliminates the need for extra labour and utilizes the forage and winter grazing opportunities we have available to us here in the foothills of Alberta. Our cows calve on pasture in April and May and we continue to select for even greater fertility. Over 75 percent of our cows calve in the first cycle.
