Dear Cattle Producers and Friends,

We want to take this opportunity to welcome all of you to our Twin Oaks Angus Farm Bull and Female sale. We are very pleased with the development of the genetics we are offering today.

We know that you are aware of what it takes to stay in the cattle business and the numbers that are the most important to you is the number of dollars made on your cattle. We are confident that you will find the quality offered here will help you in making your cattle purchase decisions.

We appreciate those who have bought bulls from us in the past and look forward to working with you and new buyers.

The cattle were weaned on a high roughage starter ration. It is a 50 Neg balanced ration. We left them on this throughout the development of the bulls and heifers. The bulls were fed to gain 3 to 3 ½ pounds per. On a side note: our heifers are fed to gain 2 pounds per day. We do not feel it is good for seed stock to be fed a high energy diet or fed to gain as much weight as they possibly can as we think it hurts the longevity, fertility, and maternal traits they are bred to have.

All our Angus has been tested negative for PI-BVD.
All our Angus bulls and heifers are developed in large dirt lots where they have plenty of room to exercise.
All our Angus bulls must pass a Breeding Soundness Exam given by our area veterinary that also includes a minimum scrotal measurement to qualify for our sale.

We have always put our focus on our cowherd. We know good bulls come from good cows. We do not believe in single trait selection be it birth weight only, milk only, performance only, or carcass only. We strive for balance traits where the offspring show their potential in developing muscle, depth and length of body, easy fleshing, and performance.

We have developed our cowherd for over 20 years where high producing cow families have been identified. We know you still sell cattle by the pound. Muscle weighs more than fat.

First Breeding Season Guarantee
Since there is no longer affordable insurance available on breeding bulls, we will no longer be responsible for the injury of the bull for their first breeding season by acts of nature such as lightning or floods, or the management of the buyer for example: in the case that the bull is injured by fighting, or running with multiple bulls, or gets hit from the side while trying to breed cows, or jumps a fence, or comes up lame, or over use of a young bull (over use will be determined by a veterinary), or excessive heat, etc. We cannot control this and will not be responsible.

These bulls will be sold sound and vet inspected. If a problem of soundness is noticed when being sold, it will be announced from the block and the buyer assumes responsibility of his/her purchase if he/she wishes to purchases the bull.

If the Angus bull is not injured, we will guarantee the bull to breed the first breeding season. The first breeding season is defined as a 90-day period when the bull was first turned out. If the bull will not breed and is not injured and is verified as a non breeder by a vet, the buyer will have the option of a replacement bull if available, or 100% of his purchase price as credit toward the purchase of another bull at our next available sale. Full salvage price goes to Twin Oaks Angus Farm.

If there are any questions you have about the cattle, the data collected, or if we can be of any assistance in your selection please contact us.

We sincerely appreciate your interest in our program,

Brian & Ruth, Brad & Jackie Weaver, Josh & Julie Stilley

Tag 007 did it all on his own. This year we had a couple cows struck by lightning and this bull’s mother was one of them. You can see the depth, thickness, and muscle this calf has and all without a mother from 90 days old on. Don’t let the light weaning and yearling weights concern you, this calf will sire beef cattle that will weigh.

				A light birth weight son of Northern Lad that has some good growth to him. It is one thing to be a heifer bull but yet another to have some good growth that goes with it. We have noticed the performance in this young mother of this bull and she is nursing a nice Northern Lad heifer this year.

This time Bandolier 1916 is stuck in there with the Ole bull through the mother of this tag 019 bull. “704” is showing that she can do an excellent job.

A calving ease prospect with good depth and thickness that grew well for us. Remember, we are feeding these bulls to gain 3 to 3 ½ pounds a day. They are not fed to be fattened out like a fat steer.

He is a little longer made bull than his et brother but still shows the muscle of this cross. Don’t forget, he is a son of Lucy 521, who is a power cow pictured with her mother Lucy 221.

Tag 029 is a pretty special bull to us. He is a full brother to our herd sire Bandolier 633 and our donors Lucy 422 and Lucy 521. His mother is without question the best Rito 837 daughter we have ever raised. She is nursing a To In Focus 925 bull calf this year that is something else. Here is an own son of Bandolier 1916 that ratioed 106 for weaning wt and 109 for yearling wt. Check out his weights he turned in below. Keep every daughter he sires.

Tag 034 is a moderate framed bull out of Northern Lad and a first calf heifer. He too will work on heifers. One thing I would like to point out about the Northern Lad bull, he is really consistent when it comes to birth weights. No up and down as far as birth weights go.

You won't find any manicure jobs on these cattle. We believe the cattlemen and cattle women can see how good the cattle are without a fancy haircut. I like to see them in their everyday clothes so that is how you will see them in this sale.

The last week of April we treated the cattle with Dectomax

The cows were vaccinated with Pfizer’s PregGauard Gold FP 10 which is a MLV vaccine that includes IBR BVD PI3 BRSV Vibro Lepto.

The bulls were vaccinated with ViraShield 6 Vibro Lepto Novartis.
