0:49
SPEAKER_00: I would invite you, if you've only ever listened to this podcast before, uh, to go ahead and watch it.
0:55
SPEAKER_00: That's how you'd get the most value out of this particular episode, especially is to be able to see these cattle as opposed to just hear me talk them.
1:03

1:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, we had visitors again here at the ranch, had Lamar and Elizabeth Farnsworth came to visit, uh, saw the Katie Maroo cow, saw some other good cattle, had a great stake.
2:00
SPEAKER_00: Appreciate them coming and visiting the ranch.
2:03
SPEAKER_00: Um, would always invite people anytime that you'd like uh to come here to the ranch, um, try to give you as close uh a view of the ranch as we can without physically being here with the format of this podcast, basically putting you shotgun in the pickup here.
2:18
SPEAKER_00: But the only thing better than being almost shotgun in the pickup is to actually be shotgun in the pickup.
2:24
SPEAKER_00: So uh we're just two hours north of the Salt Lake City, Utah airport.
2:28
SPEAKER_00: Um, would invite you anytime that you're available to make that flight, make that drive up here.
2:34
SPEAKER_00: We'll we'll have some good cattle ready for you.
2:36
SPEAKER_00: We'll have some great Akeushi steak that we'd be happy to share with you.
2:40
SPEAKER_00: Um just let me know when to expect you.
2:42
SPEAKER_00: We always love visitors here at the ranch.
2:44
SPEAKER_00: Um sent the kids back to school in the last 30 days.
2:47
SPEAKER_00: Uh, I'm getting old.
2:49
SPEAKER_00: Uh realize that we are closer to my daughter Emory's graduation than we are to mine.
2:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, Emory's seven, she's in first grade.
2:58
SPEAKER_00: Um, but we are closer to her high school graduation than than we are to mine.
3:02
SPEAKER_00: So I I am getting old.
3:04
SPEAKER_00: Uh started calving as well.
3:06
SPEAKER_00: Uh, really fun.
3:07
SPEAKER_00: Started off the season calving uh a heifer calf sired by the original import Rushaw um out of a full sister to uh Heartbrand Joe that would kind of be a feature bull from Heartbrand for years in their marketing.
3:19
SPEAKER_00: And anyway, kind of a neat, neat individual there, fun calf.
3:22
SPEAKER_00: That cow was 19.
3:23
SPEAKER_00: This is the last baby to come out of her.
3:25
SPEAKER_00: She's since gone the way of the world, so kind of a fun, fun thing to say, hey, this is uh the sire is a as a 1975 era bull.
3:34
SPEAKER_00: Um, the dam, uh, you know, as a 19-year-old cow and is now dead and gone, and this baby was born to start the season.
3:41
SPEAKER_00: So kind of a fun, fun way to start the calving season.
3:44
SPEAKER_00: Um, Aaron and Billy got engaged.
3:46
SPEAKER_00: So Aaron and Billy work here at the ranch and and um and have been dating for I don't know how long, year or whatever else, and and uh got engaged to be married, and so yeah, Aaron, Aaron and Billy, anyway, great, great folks.
4:00
SPEAKER_00: And and Billy, she has her uh ring on and her picture there with that that newborn calf.
4:07
SPEAKER_00: So kind of kind of fun.
4:08
SPEAKER_00: This is her favorite time of year with with calving, and and she uh got engaged to Aaron as well, so kind of fun that way.
4:13
SPEAKER_00: Um for Emory's birthday, my daughter Emory, my seven-year-old, took her to her first Utah State game.
4:18
SPEAKER_00: Um, I am a Utah State alumnus.
4:21
SPEAKER_00: Uh, I always tell people I uh you know deal with a lot of folks that went to school at Texas AM and they are the Aggies.
4:28
SPEAKER_00: Um I went to school at Utah State, who are also the Aggies.
4:32
SPEAKER_00: Um, I tell them maybe kind of more so like the Timu version relative to relative to AM, but you know, uh that's where I went to school.
4:40
SPEAKER_00: That's where my wife Haley went to school.
4:42
SPEAKER_00: Um, but you know, we we went, I took Emery to our first football game there at Utah State, and uh we are terrible this year.
4:49
SPEAKER_00: I mean, like we have a horrendous football team, like really, really bad.
4:54
SPEAKER_00: Um, but it was really fun to be with Emory and and fun to take her down to to our alma mater and show her that.
5:01
SPEAKER_00: So um, so yeah, jumping into kind of what we're gonna do here today in the truck and as we look at these cattle, um, these podcasts, we always alternate in format.
5:10
SPEAKER_00: So we release a podcast every two weeks on Thursday morning, and we alternate between a guest interview where we're trying to you know interview people that would provide value uh for anybody in cattle on a range of different subjects and and folks that have got a lot of experience in in a range of subjects relating to cattle, um, and then we'll alternate to an episode with the cattle.
5:28
SPEAKER_00: So you can see here in the the out just outside the truck here, you can see uh the cattle are gonna be right here in the shot.
5:34
SPEAKER_00: You can watch the video and see these animals we're gonna talk about.
5:38
SPEAKER_00: It basically ends up being a video catalog.
5:41
SPEAKER_00: So rather than saying in a traditional marketing environment, what you'd have would be maybe once a year, you'd have a live production sale, there'd be a printed catalog with pictures of the animals and footnotes of the animals.
5:52
SPEAKER_00: What we do is we run an auction the last Wednesday of each month.
5:56
SPEAKER_00: Um, it's strictly an online sale.
5:59
SPEAKER_00: Try to give people opportunities consistently throughout the year.
6:02
SPEAKER_00: I know that everybody's timing is different.
6:04
SPEAKER_00: When do you have grass ready?
6:05
SPEAKER_00: When do you have fence ready?
6:06
SPEAKER_00: When do you have dollars ready?
6:08
SPEAKER_00: When do you have time ready?
6:09
SPEAKER_00: Whatever it may be as far as being ready to make your purchases.
6:11
SPEAKER_00: So we try to provide some consistent availability, but this podcast serves as a video catalog for that auction.
6:18
SPEAKER_00: So this podcast is gonna tie to the September 2026 auction here at Christensen Genetics.
6:24
SPEAKER_00: And basically, you get a chance to see the cattle exactly as if you had shown up right here with me to the ranch and you were sitting shotgun in the pickup, looking out the window at the cattle.
6:33
SPEAKER_00: You get a real true unadulterated view of the cattle.
6:36
SPEAKER_00: Um, in some cases, we're gonna have you know multiple animals penned side by side for direct comparison, give you a real good feel for what these animals are and what you can expect.
6:45
SPEAKER_00: Um, most of the people that purchase from us are gonna be purchasing sight unseen.
6:49
SPEAKER_00: So trying to give you as real and as transparent a view of these cattle as we can.
6:53
SPEAKER_00: Um, to take a look at the animals that are offered in the auction.
6:57
SPEAKER_00: Um, and then as we look at the cattle, uh, I go ahead and talk through them basically what they are, how I bred them, why I bred them, what their strengths and weaknesses would be.
7:06
SPEAKER_00: And hopefully that provides value whether you're actively buying or whether you're just looking to learn more about these cattle.
7:13
SPEAKER_00: Um, hopefully that information provides value whether you're a buyer or just someone looking to learn more.
7:18
SPEAKER_00: Um, so that's basically the format of what we're gonna do uh here.
7:22
SPEAKER_00: This month's auction will open the day this podcast is released, which is gonna be September 17th.
7:27
SPEAKER_00: Um, we're recording this on the 10th, so a week ahead of uh podcast release.
7:32
SPEAKER_00: Um, September 17th, both the podcast will be released and the um auction will be opened.
7:40
SPEAKER_00: And that auction catalog opens up from the moment the auction catalog is open, you can bid.
7:45
SPEAKER_00: And I would recommend that you bid early because honestly, any given bid price is only available to one bidder one time.
7:52
SPEAKER_00: And so if you're the first bidder, you get a better price, right?
7:56
SPEAKER_00: And there are always gonna be some lots in any given auction that end up bringing a whole pile of money and trading for an awful lot, uh, you know, and there's a pile of bids on them, but there are also always uh gonna be some things that sell that are a real buy that sell at or very near that opening bid.
8:13
SPEAKER_00: Um, so I would absolutely encourage you to go ahead and grab some of those early opening bids.
8:18
SPEAKER_00: Get that very best price because if you're not the first bidder, if you're the second or third or fourth or fifth or whatever, by default, by definition, you have to pay more to have your name on that animal or on that lot at that point in time.
8:30
SPEAKER_00: So I'd invite you to bid early.
8:32
SPEAKER_00: Um, that platform is gonna be open in this case for 13 days.
8:36
SPEAKER_00: So it'll it'll open on September 17th uh to line right up with this podcast release, and then it's gonna close on September 30th, Wednesday, September 30th, last Wednesday of the month, like we always do at 6 p.m.
8:49
SPEAKER_00: Mountain time.
8:50
SPEAKER_00: So you're gonna have plenty of time to look at that catalog, plenty of time to go back and forth between seeing the cattle in this podcast and looking at everything about them on the on the auction.
9:00
SPEAKER_00: I would recommend you place those bids early.
9:02
SPEAKER_00: Uh, the the platform will text you if you're out bid, so that way you don't worry about forgetting.
9:08
SPEAKER_00: I mean, every sale I have somebody say, Oh man, you know I forgot or I got busy or had whatever going on.
9:12
SPEAKER_00: The moment the sale opens, go ahead and get those bids in, get them in early.
9:15
SPEAKER_00: The platform will text you if you're out bid.
9:18
SPEAKER_00: Um, we also offer free delivery anywhere in the continental United States on the live lots.
9:23
SPEAKER_00: So if you're at all concerned about like, hey, how am I gonna get these animals from Idaho, where they are now, to your ranch, wherever that may be in the United States.
9:31
SPEAKER_00: And they worry, you know, what's that gonna look like, what's that gonna cost, who's gonna do it?
9:35
SPEAKER_00: Don't worry about it.
9:36
SPEAKER_00: We send a load out every month and we include that in the bid price.
9:41
SPEAKER_00: So you don't have to worry about how much am I gonna spend on trucking, will there be a trucker available?
9:46
SPEAKER_00: Can they or can they not come to where I am?
9:48
SPEAKER_00: What will it cost?
9:49
SPEAKER_00: You don't have to worry about any of that.
9:50
SPEAKER_00: We take care of that, we send a load out once a month, every month, send them all over the country.
9:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, we have sent cattle all up and down the eastern seaboard, we've sent cattle all up and down the west coast, we've sent cattle from the Canadian border to the Mexican border and internationally.
10:05
SPEAKER_00: Um, and so don't don't worry at all about it.
10:08
SPEAKER_00: I will mention, specifically just on that international front, our free delivery is for anything in the continental United States.
10:15
SPEAKER_00: So if you are in Hawaii or in Alaska or international, we can and will ship to those locations.
10:22
SPEAKER_00: Um, but we are gonna cover all of the preparatory paperwork in lieu of covering the actual shipping.
10:30
SPEAKER_00: So I am not gonna buy a plane ticket for the cow, sorry.
10:33
SPEAKER_00: Um, but I will go ahead and get everything put together so you can ship them to wherever they need to go.
10:37
SPEAKER_00: Uh, we've sent cattle recently to Canada, sent cattle within the last couple years to Hawaii.
10:42
SPEAKER_00: Um, we can get them wherever we need to get them, but uh, we will just cover all of the additional testing rather than shipping them like we do for anyone in the continental United States.
10:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, mark your calendars, be there September 30th at 6 p.m.
10:54
SPEAKER_00: Mountain time for closing.
10:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, it is a horse race style finish, so the auction will extend by an additional five minutes every time a bit is placed on any lots in the closing five minutes.
11:03
SPEAKER_00: So um without further ado, we're gonna jump into this cow that is right behind me.
11:07
SPEAKER_00: The cow that you can see right behind me right now, that is right outside the truck, she's all by herself in the pen, is the 2413 J female.
11:14
SPEAKER_00: And this is a donor cow.
11:15
SPEAKER_00: She leads the auction, is lot one.
11:17
SPEAKER_00: Um, this female is gonna be a hiromitsu over big owl over dynine kobai.
11:22
SPEAKER_00: Um, so to give you a feel for who she is, why you should care, what the best fit for this animal is, this cow has been a donor here.
11:31
SPEAKER_00: This cow has been a donor here specifically to introduce that dynine kobai maternal line here within our program.
11:38
SPEAKER_00: So, this cow, I mean, this is the base of the dynine cobaye maternal line at Christians and Genetics.
11:43
SPEAKER_00: Like this cow, like not her sister, not her daughter, not her whatever.
11:48
SPEAKER_00: This cow.
11:49
SPEAKER_00: So this cow has been one that we have built around.
11:51
SPEAKER_00: This is a cow that we have personally used as a donor cow.
11:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, and the reason we we care, why would we care about that dionine cobaye maternal line?
12:00
SPEAKER_00: Um, there were only ever 13 cows and six bulls that ever left Japan.
12:04
SPEAKER_00: So it's a tiny, tiny, tiny genetic base to begin with.
12:07
SPEAKER_00: So if you don't have at least some of all of those maternal lines and all of those paternal lines represented in your herd, you pretty quickly get backed into a corner where you're frankly just kind of inbred up the wazoo.
12:17
SPEAKER_00: And so having a cow like this adds some genetic breadth by bringing that dai9 kobai maternal line that is not as broadly distributed in the Akiyushi breed, um, brings that right up to the front of the pedigree in this sense.
12:30
SPEAKER_00: Um, and then the other thing this cow is gonna bring, this is this is a hiromitsu daughter.
12:34
SPEAKER_00: So hiromitsu is a double-bred Katy Maru.
12:36
SPEAKER_00: So you've got two shots of the katamaru bloodline on the top side of this pedigree.
12:40
SPEAKER_00: Hiroomitsu himself, great bowl, super impressive bowl.
12:43
SPEAKER_00: I remember years ago sending John down, was he was he was going on a delivery run down into Texas, went down there to Heartbrand, and and I knew that John had go down kind of without some preconceived notions as far as which bowl was best.
12:54
SPEAKER_00: I already know the bowl battery, and so I'm gonna say, well, I like this one, or I don't like that one, or maybe I'm biased as I go in and look.
13:01
SPEAKER_00: Um, whereas John just knows good cows.
13:03
SPEAKER_00: So I remember asking him, hey, which of those bowls is the best one?
13:06
SPEAKER_00: When he looked at that whole bunch.
13:07
SPEAKER_00: And at this point, the legendary and Akiushi batteries were together there, and he said, Oh, the the very best one was that 1090 bowl.
13:13
SPEAKER_00: He said, I had it had a name like started with H.
13:15
SPEAKER_00: I don't remember what it was.
13:16
SPEAKER_00: That that'd be the Hiramitsu bowl, which is the sire of this cow right behind me, right here.
13:21
SPEAKER_00: Um, the Hiro Mitsu bowl, super super mellow as well.
13:25
SPEAKER_00: Um, Jim and Kathy Moore, Jim Moore specifically would have been who broke him to lead on as a show bowl.
13:31
SPEAKER_00: Had no problem at all doing that.
13:33
SPEAKER_00: Super, super mellow bowl, super easy mannered bowl.
13:36
SPEAKER_00: Um, just like the Katy Maru uh clone is that we have here.
13:39
SPEAKER_00: Um, so great manners, super thick, powerful, high performing, good looking, high marbling cattle.
13:45
SPEAKER_00: So you're stacking that Katy Maroon blood on top of the dynine cobaye maternal line for that outcross.
13:50
SPEAKER_00: This is a donor cow, right?
13:53
SPEAKER_00: This female um is going to be carrying a bull calf sired by Maestro.
13:58
SPEAKER_00: So Maestro is a master chef over Katy Maru bull.
14:02
SPEAKER_00: You cannot buy our maestro semen at this point in time.
14:05
SPEAKER_00: We have not released semen on that bowl.
14:07
SPEAKER_00: The only way to access maestro genetics is in a setting like this to buy a cow that is pregnant carrying a maestro calf.
14:15
SPEAKER_00: So this sun absolutely is gonna have stud bowl potential.
14:19
SPEAKER_00: Um, you're looking at Katy Maru genetics via the service sire in maestro.
14:23
SPEAKER_00: You're looking at Katie Maroon genetics via the sire of this cow, 2413J.
14:27
SPEAKER_00: Then you're looking at Dionine Cobi maternal line on the bottom side of that pedigree.
14:31
SPEAKER_00: This is a young cow, this is a productive cow.
14:34
SPEAKER_00: You can see this is good-mannered cow.
14:35
SPEAKER_00: This is not a cow that gets worked up or wound up or worried about whatever.
14:40
SPEAKER_00: Great cow to be around.
14:41
SPEAKER_00: The only reason we are marketing this cow is that we have plenty from her, you know, and and what I look at with any and all of the different donor cows that we flow through, um, you know, past a certain point, it's like, well, we can keep making more and more and more and more of them.
14:55
SPEAKER_00: But past a certain point we do have enough of them, and there's enough value in a female like this, you know, to say, hey, there's not any reason that this cow needs to just go to the grave here.
15:05
SPEAKER_00: This cow could do a lot of good for another program.
15:08
SPEAKER_00: A lot, you know, this is a foundation kind of female to build around.
15:11
SPEAKER_00: This would absolutely be a donor cow that you could work on.
15:14
SPEAKER_00: Um, and you know, a cow like this, you're getting the cow herself that's got that great uh pedigree to her and obviously great manners, uh, you're getting the baby in her belly, you're getting free delivery anywhere in the continental United States, um, and a lifetime of production ahead of this cow uh on a proven donor.
15:31
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking for a cornerstone kind of a cow, this is the kind of cow we have built around here.
15:37
SPEAKER_00: This is the kind of cow I'm confident in.
15:39
SPEAKER_00: Uh lot one 2413j.
15:41
SPEAKER_00: Uh, if you want access to this cow's genetics uh without buying the cow herself in lot one, lot 13 is gonna be two embryos sired by Uma Maru over 2413 J.
15:54
SPEAKER_00: So in that case, triple bred Katy Maru embryos.
15:57
SPEAKER_00: If you wanted that heavy Katy Maru influence, we do not sell Katy Maru embryos.
16:01
SPEAKER_00: So if you wanted access to as much Katy Maru blood as possible in a pedigree, that would be it.
16:06
SPEAKER_00: Lot 13, Uma Maru over 2413 J embryos to get that Katy Maru influence into your herd.
16:13
SPEAKER_00: Right now, nearest the truck is 5605.
16:16
SPEAKER_00: He's just turning around and turning away from us.
16:18
SPEAKER_00: That is gonna be the polled Akiushi bull in this set.
16:21
SPEAKER_00: So right now, right in the middle of everything, is the bowl pointed dead ahead away from us, um, is 5605.
16:28
SPEAKER_00: And the 5605 bowl, if you're looking for polled Akeyushi genetics, this is your bowl in this auction.
16:34
SPEAKER_00: He's gonna be lot two.
16:36
SPEAKER_00: So lot two in the auction is CGX Guapo 5605.
16:40
SPEAKER_00: And um, this bowl is the way to go ahead and get all of the good of Akeyushi, right?
16:46
SPEAKER_00: Go ahead and get all of the marbling, go ahead and get all of the longevity, go ahead and get all the hybrid vigor if you use them in a crossbred setting without the horns, all right.
16:56
SPEAKER_00: We mean we talk about the importance of polled genetics.
16:59
SPEAKER_00: I was just talking to a good friend of mine the other day, and and he was telling me about a de-horning scenario that had gone poorly, right?
17:06
SPEAKER_00: That had gone wrong.
17:07
SPEAKER_00: And and truthfully, anyone that has been around dehorning cattle, you're gonna run into it at some point.
17:12
SPEAKER_00: He'd run into a real train wreck where he he lost the calf after dehorning him, and he's not alone, right?
17:17
SPEAKER_00: That that has happened.
17:19
SPEAKER_00: Anyone that has dehorned enough cattle has ended up in a setting where either they've lost one or they've almost lost one or they've had one develop, you know, a serious infection, or at a bare minimum, had one that was way set back for a long time, took them a long time to get over de-horning.
17:34
SPEAKER_00: When you go ahead and dehorn those cattle, I mean it takes time, it takes effort.
17:37
SPEAKER_00: It is a dirty, nasty job.
17:40
SPEAKER_00: The cattle don't like it, the people doing it don't like it.
17:42
SPEAKER_00: It opens them up for flies, it opens them up for infection.
17:46
SPEAKER_00: Um, best case, it's gonna set them back on gain and everything else.
17:50
SPEAKER_00: Worst case, you might lose one, like happened to my friend the other day.
17:54
SPEAKER_00: And you know, I I it's one of those where I say, hey, you know what the very easiest way to dehorn one of these things is?
17:59
SPEAKER_00: You take that bowl far right right now of those three red bulls that are in that group right there.
18:05
SPEAKER_00: The far right individual is 5605, which is gonna be the guapo sun.
18:09
SPEAKER_00: Knock the horns off the day you breed the cows.
18:12
SPEAKER_00: It is the easiest way to get this job done.
18:17
SPEAKER_00: And I'll tell you, you're not gonna give up marbling to do it.
18:19
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I I've had the concern has been raised of saying, hey, if we go ahead and use a pulled purebred, which is gonna get that pulled gene from something outside of the Akiushi gene pool, so Akiyushi is a breed, um, or red wagyu, interchangeable terms there, are horned.
18:35
SPEAKER_00: These polled purebreds are gonna be put picking up that pulled gene from an outside breed, like Angus, for example.
18:40
SPEAKER_00: So they're gonna have a very small percentage.
18:42
SPEAKER_00: In the case of this boy, it could be you know five, six percent Angus is where that's coming from.
18:46
SPEAKER_00: So they recognize them as a purebred because they are greater than 1516 akyushi.
18:52
SPEAKER_00: Um, but they are not a full blood, which would mean 100% okayushi.
18:56
SPEAKER_00: All full bloods are horned, only purebreds can be pulled.
19:00
SPEAKER_00: And I've had people say, well, you know, if we if they're not 100% Japanese origin, well, maybe they won't marble.
19:06
SPEAKER_00: I'll have Jacob throw in a picture here quick.
19:08
SPEAKER_00: Uh, this picture is from my friends at Yankee Beef in New York.
19:12
SPEAKER_00: They used the Davy Crockett bowl, which would be a pulled purebred Akiushi bowl.
19:17
SPEAKER_00: Um, used them in an F1 setting, meaning over an Angus cow.
19:20
SPEAKER_00: Um, produced this feeder heifer that they took through to slaughter.
19:23
SPEAKER_00: Take a look at this beef.
19:24
SPEAKER_00: And I mean, this is his danged impressive beef.
19:26
SPEAKER_00: Wonderful job there to to Joe and Erica, and and really an impressive finished product here.
19:32
SPEAKER_00: But I'll tell you, you know, I wouldn't worry at all about the the Davy Crockett bowl.
19:37
SPEAKER_00: I can't speak for every pulled purebred there ever was, but I can speak for Davy Crockett and the dam of this lot two bowl we've been looking at, which would currently be the bowl nearest us.
19:46
SPEAKER_00: So the bowl on the right of those three red bowls right there, the bowl nearest us, that red bowl, that pulled purebred Akuchi.
19:53
SPEAKER_00: His mother is a full sister to Davy Crockett.
19:56
SPEAKER_00: So that beef we've been looking at, that really impressive beef, that beautiful finished product, that was sired by a full brother to this bowl's dam.
20:06
SPEAKER_00: Um, so very closely related genetics.
20:09
SPEAKER_00: Um, you can use this bowl with confidence to remove the horns, but keep the marbling.
20:14
SPEAKER_00: Um, and so that's gonna be lot two CGX Guapo 5605N.
20:20
SPEAKER_00: The first bowl we saw when we pulled up to video pen two here was lot three CGX Viral 5565N.
20:28
SPEAKER_00: That bowl is gonna be a viral over D40, so really, really unique from a pedigree standpoint.
20:34
SPEAKER_00: This is a full blood, 100% DNA verified American Wagyu Association registered red wagyu bowl or Akiushi bowl.
20:42
SPEAKER_00: Um, viral is gonna be a shigamaru over Hikari over Namiko bowl on the top side of the pedigree, and then the D40 cow is a big owl over Hikari over Kunasaki cow on the bottom side of the pedigree.
20:57
SPEAKER_00: So this is a straight original import pedigree.
20:59
SPEAKER_00: Um so you got rare and valuable genetics on the top side of this pedigree, rare and valuable genetics on the bottom side of this pedigree, 100% DNA verified AWA full blood.
21:09
SPEAKER_00: This is also a calving-ease bowl.
21:11
SPEAKER_00: So if I was someone that said, hey, what I want to do is I want to take one of these red wagyu bulls and I want to turn them out on heifers, right?
21:20
SPEAKER_00: So first calf heifers, virgin heifers, small heifers that I need light birth weight, low birth weight for easy calving.
21:27
SPEAKER_00: Um, and that's what I need.
21:29
SPEAKER_00: And I, you know, and the beauty of a situation like this, this lot three, realistically, there's gonna be a buy to be had here.
21:35
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I'll just tell you, right now, um, the cattle market is at all-time highs.
21:40
SPEAKER_00: There are not as many people chasing some of these added premium opportunities, like you can get with red waggy or a ushi.
21:46
SPEAKER_00: Um, make the buy, right?
21:48
SPEAKER_00: Buy the cattle while they're undervalued.
21:50
SPEAKER_00: You could really, really, really easily spend eight, ten, twelve thousand on an Angus bowl that's a pretty run of the mill bowl right now.
21:58
SPEAKER_00: If you want something that is going to give you Premium opportunities, you want something that's going to give you calving ease, you want something with free delivery anywhere in the continental US included, I'd be willing to bet you can get this bowl bought for less than what you'd spend on an Angus bowl and give yourself more upside potential with those calves.
22:16
SPEAKER_00: Um, you know, if you go to eating some of this Akeyushi beef or this red wagyu beef, I mean, there's no going back.
22:22
SPEAKER_00: And I say that as an Angus breeder.
22:24
SPEAKER_00: I mean, Angus are fantastic cattle.
22:26
SPEAKER_00: I continue to breed them, I continue to market them.
22:28
SPEAKER_00: But if you're gonna eat a steer, go ahead and eat something uh Akiushi, you know, and go ahead and use a bowl like this.
22:34
SPEAKER_00: Breed him, you know, whether you're already running Wagyu cattle or whether you're looking at introducing them.
22:38
SPEAKER_00: This is an ideal bowl of full blood um AWA registered, so you've got that Wagyu marketing uh option open to you.
22:45
SPEAKER_00: He's full blood Akeyushi, so you've got the Akeyushi marketing uh avenue open to you.
22:50
SPEAKER_00: If you bred him to black cows, you're still gonna get black calves.
22:53
SPEAKER_00: That black gene is dominant uh in a homozygous uh black animal.
22:57
SPEAKER_00: Um, so you can still market a mangus if you so chose.
23:00
SPEAKER_00: Uh, a lot of options there, uh, and definitely a good calving ease option.
23:04
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking for a full blood calving ease option, you want to look at lot three CGX Viral 5565N.
23:11
SPEAKER_00: So the bowl we're looking at nearest the truck now, the 5525 bowl, the black bowl that's very nearest to the truck out of everything we're looking at.
23:19
SPEAKER_00: 5525 is gonna be a commerce sun out of the Erica 3388 cow.
23:25
SPEAKER_00: This bowl is a top 1% weaning weight bowl, 101 weaning weight EPD, in addition to being top 2% for PAP EPD and top 2% for angle EPD and top 10% for claw EPD.
23:39
SPEAKER_00: So to translate all that as far as what that bull is gonna do, if you're looking at that lot four bowl, that 55-25 bowl, the commerce sum, those calves are gonna flat gain.
23:49
SPEAKER_00: You know, looking at that bull, even looking back to his sire, commerce himself ratio to be 123 at weaning, 125 at yearling.
23:58
SPEAKER_00: So just smoked some huge contemporary groups, hundreds of bulls at Keneally Angus in Nebraska, really significant proven weaning weight in the sire.
24:07
SPEAKER_00: And then this bull himself ranks in the top 1% of the entire Angus breed for weaning weight.
24:12
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking for just straight performance, that bull is gonna get it done.
24:16
SPEAKER_00: In addition to that, when we talk about that PAP EPD, that's talking about pulmonary arterial pressure.
24:21
SPEAKER_00: So we're talking about brisket disease or high altitude disease.
24:25
SPEAKER_00: So for cattle that have to run at altitude, we're talking about running in Colorado at 10,000 feet, right?
24:30
SPEAKER_00: Or in all sorts and all sorts of different mountain states at 6, 8, 10,000 feet of elevation.
24:35
SPEAKER_00: Um, you will have animals that are susceptible to brisket disease, susceptible to having high pulmonary arterial pressure.
24:43
SPEAKER_00: What we're looking for is lower pulmonary arterial pressure.
24:47
SPEAKER_00: So top 2% PAP EPD mean means that this animal is in the top 2% of the breed for reducing that pulmonary arterial pressure and reducing the risk of high altitude disease or brisket disease.
25:00
SPEAKER_00: So if you were trying to produce maximum weaning weight at elevation and you wanted to make sure that the bull had the feet to travel at elevation, you know, one of the issues within the Angus breed is having some animals that don't have the foot quality we'd hope for, i.e., we don't have the the claw shape or or or foot angle that we'd prefer to maintain soundness in those animals to be able to travel in some of these really difficult environments up and down a mountain, frankly.
25:27
SPEAKER_00: Um, this is exactly the kind of bull to turn out.
25:30
SPEAKER_00: So this lot four tag 5525 is gonna give you lots of pounds of calf to sell.
25:36
SPEAKER_00: He's gonna run safely at altitude, and he's gonna have the feet that will hold up for him andor any daughters you retain to be able to run safely at altitude.
25:45
SPEAKER_00: So if my job was to produce as many pounds of weaning weight as possible off of a high mountain pasture, that is exactly the kind of bull that is bred to do it.
25:56
SPEAKER_00: About four CGX Commerce 5525N.
26:00
SPEAKER_00: So the bowl we're looking at right now is gonna be the 5548 bowl.
26:04
SPEAKER_00: So that's gonna be the black bowl that's nearest the truck.
26:06
SPEAKER_00: We got a pen of five animals here together, but 5548, the the bull on the left, so very nearest uh where Jacob is shooting from right now.
26:15
SPEAKER_00: 5548 is gonna be lot five in this auction.
26:19
SPEAKER_00: That's gonna be a conclusion over Black Cat May 3443.
26:24
SPEAKER_00: Um, what's really unique, cool about this bowl?
26:27
SPEAKER_00: If you were talking about making black cows, this is a super cool bowl to look at as far as retaining daughters from a bull.
26:35
SPEAKER_00: 5548 is stacked, literally has a$10 million producing cow on the top side of the pedigree and a$10 million producing cow on the bottom side of the pedigree.
26:46
SPEAKER_00: So on the top side of the pedigree, his paternal granddamn, so his sire is conclusion.
26:51
SPEAKER_00: Conclusion's mother is Sandpoint Blackbird 8809, who is a cow that has done over$10 million in direct progeny sales, one of the all-time record holders for revenue in the Angus breed.
27:02
SPEAKER_00: Um, and then on the bottom side of the pedigree, this bull's mother is a commerce over a full sister in blood to resource, whose dam is a full sister to a$10 million producing, the$10 million producing SAV Black Cat May 4136.
27:19
SPEAKER_00: Um, so you're stacking some really, really unique lines there in the black cat may and uh blackbird cows.
27:26
SPEAKER_00: In addition to that, this 5548 bowl is top 10 for growth, top 15 for calving ease.
27:33
SPEAKER_00: So this is a bowl that can just get it done in the most simple and straightforward of ways.
27:38
SPEAKER_00: This is a bowl you can use on heifers because he's calving ease.
27:41
SPEAKER_00: This is a bowl that'll put weaning weight onto your calves and get your paydays on your steers, and this is a bowl you can comfortably hold daughters from and say, hey, they'll make good, high-quality cows.
27:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, that's a well-rounded individual, comes with free delivery anywhere in the continental US included.
27:56
SPEAKER_00: Lot five.
27:57
SPEAKER_00: CGX conclusion 5548N.
28:00
SPEAKER_00: The bowl on the far left there is lot five.
28:04
SPEAKER_00: Last thing we're gonna look at in this pen is gonna be the 5616 Um Steer.
28:09
SPEAKER_00: So he's just the little yellow guy that's just kind of walked right into the middle there.
28:13
SPEAKER_00: Lot six is 5616 CGX FX14 5616N.
28:20
SPEAKER_00: So anyone that would like to try to prove out the FX14 bull and take a look at what these this finished product is gonna do, um, here is your shot.
28:28
SPEAKER_00: This is a direct FX14 calf.
28:31
SPEAKER_00: So FX14, for anyone that's unfamiliar with that bull, this is gonna be Ashwood FX014.
28:38
SPEAKER_00: Um, the FX14 bull would be king of the Australian Wagyu Association database based on all of their metrics, based on all of their data.
28:48
SPEAKER_00: If you want to talk about marbling and carcass quality in the red wagyu breed, FX14 is king.
28:54
SPEAKER_00: Um, so this calf, this lot six, is gonna this 5616 steer is gonna be an FX14 son out of the 050L donor, which would be a D18 daughter.
29:05
SPEAKER_00: Um, so you're basically putting together an Australian Super Sire over top of a big Al D18 cow, um, DNA verified, 100% red wagyu.
29:15
SPEAKER_00: If you're gonna put the time and effort and feed into a steer that it takes to turn them into beef, don't put it into a subpar steer.
29:23
SPEAKER_00: Don't put it into a maybe, don't put it into a like, well, I think it'll turn out, or put it into something that you know there's there's really nothing in this pedigree other than great marbling animals, right?
29:35
SPEAKER_00: You've got great marbling on top of the pedigree, you've got great marbling on bottom of the pedigree, you've got the backing of the Australian Wagyu Association.
29:42
SPEAKER_00: Um, you're you're looking at a lot of things that say, hey, this thing will marble.
29:48
SPEAKER_00: So lot six 5616 is gonna be a steer that you can finish with confidence saying, Hey, this is gonna give me the best of the best beef when it's all said and done.
29:59
SPEAKER_00: That's lot six fifty six sixteen.
30:01
SPEAKER_00: So the bowl we are looking at here is gonna be CGX Little Al 4504M.
30:07
SPEAKER_00: So this bowl here, we are gonna have both a lease option on as well as the initial release of a straw of semen from this bowl.
30:16
SPEAKER_00: So a couple different approaches you can take to use this individual.
30:20
SPEAKER_00: I'll fill you in on a couple of reasons why I think you'd want to use this individual.
30:24
SPEAKER_00: So CGX Little Owl.
30:28
SPEAKER_00: Named Little Owl because his sire is Big Owl, and his dam, the GK8 Akimaru 3 female, is gonna be a smaller framed cow.
30:39
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking to not have your cows get too big, so we're talking about maybe some lower input type environments.
30:46
SPEAKER_00: If you're grazing some high desert type country, like what we do here, andor over into Wyoming or down into Utah, Nevada, some of those areas where cattle have got to cover a lot of country and there's not a lot of feed, a smaller framed cow has less maintenance requirements due to having less body weight.
31:02
SPEAKER_00: Um, and that cow can hold flesh and continue to breed back more easily than a larger framed cow that requires more input.
31:09
SPEAKER_00: So if you're in a spot that feed isn't necessarily abundant in your environment, a smaller framed cow can be better.
31:16
SPEAKER_00: And that is where the name of this bull comes from.
31:18
SPEAKER_00: Is we're saying, hey, it's a big owl son from a smaller framed cow, um, hence little ow is this bull's name.
31:26
SPEAKER_00: Um, so uh the you know, another reason that you'd really want to look at tying into a bull like this, his mother is a direct Rushaw daughter.
31:33
SPEAKER_00: So the original Rushaw 430 bull, 1975 Japanese national champion, only national champion to ever leave Japan.
31:41
SPEAKER_00: Um, semen has sold for up to$22,000 for a single straw.
31:45
SPEAKER_00: Highest valued Akiyushi bull in history is the Rushaw bull.
31:50
SPEAKER_00: And then the the GK8 cow, which is the mother of this bull we're looking at here.
31:54
SPEAKER_00: GK8 um is also from the Naomi maternal line.
31:59
SPEAKER_00: So, again, we're talking about adding one of those rare and less broadly distributed maternal lines for out cross value.
32:05
SPEAKER_00: Um, and we're getting a good look at the bull here broadside right now.
32:08
SPEAKER_00: He's turned and given us a decent look.
32:09
SPEAKER_00: Great picture of the bull as well.
32:11
SPEAKER_00: Take a look at that on the auction website.
32:13
SPEAKER_00: Um, but really nice little bull, strong topped bull, plenty of hip in the bull, good depth of side.
32:18
SPEAKER_00: Um, this bull obviously has successfully made semen, a successfully frozen semen, given that we are offering some in this sale.
32:25
SPEAKER_00: So proven semen producer.
32:27
SPEAKER_00: His mother is also 12 years old, bred back via female sexed semen uh to the Shoshone bull, is gonna calve here next month.
32:34
SPEAKER_00: Um, so continues to express that longevity that we so appreciate about the Akiushi breed.
32:40
SPEAKER_00: Love having a bull that's backed by a 12-year-old cow.
32:42
SPEAKER_00: You can use a bull like this with confidence to say, hey, big owl is one of the most proven carcass bulls of the breed, one of the most broadly distributed bulls of the breed.
32:52
SPEAKER_00: You know you're gonna get that carcass quality, but then you also know you're gonna get the outcross value from both Rushaw and Naomi, and you know you're gonna get that proven longevity and fertility, where his mother is a 12-year-old cow, not only getting bred in a live cover scenario, not only getting bred in an artificial insemination scenario, but getting bred in an artificial uh insemination scenario to female sexed semen, which is even more difficult to do as there is about a tenth the volume of sperm cells in a straw of female sexed semen as there is in a normal dose of uh semen that we would use here.
33:28
SPEAKER_00: 4 million sperm cells per straw in a normal straw of female sexed semen, um, we package our conventional straws here at 40 million sperm cells per straw.
33:36
SPEAKER_00: So very, very fertile mother, very long-lasting mother, um, very proven pedigree, big Oliver Rushaw bowl.
33:43
SPEAKER_00: The bull himself looks fantastic here.
33:45
SPEAKER_00: Um, you know, just an impressive individual to look at in person.
33:50
SPEAKER_00: Um, if you were a person that said, hey, my goal is to have a stud caliber bowl live covering my cows, but I don't want to pay the kind of money it would cost to own a stud caliber type bull, that is why this lease option exists.
34:05
SPEAKER_00: Lot 10 is a two-year lease on this bull.
34:08
SPEAKER_00: So that means that you are purchasing the live cover use, live cover rights only.
34:13
SPEAKER_00: The semen collection rights will remain the ownership of Christian synetics, the semen sales rights will remain the ownership of Christian genetics, the ownership of the bull outright will remain the ownership of Christian synetics.
34:24
SPEAKER_00: What you are purchasing is two years of live cover use of this bull.
34:29
SPEAKER_00: So, what that translates to, and I should mention delivery is included on this lease, this bull is gonna show up at your place and cover whatever cows you want to throw at him for two years.
34:39
SPEAKER_00: So you don't have to worry about coming up with the money to buy a bull, which doesn't really make a whole lot of any sense, especially for small herds, um, to say, hey, I'm gonna buy a stud caliber bull.
34:48
SPEAKER_00: You're spending a pile of money on the bull, and as soon as you retain any daughters, the clock is ticking on how long you can keep that bull around.
34:54
SPEAKER_00: Because say you have a herd of 25 cows, and we go ahead and breed this bull to them, we retain daughters, we retain heifers.
35:01
SPEAKER_00: Within two years, those daughters need bread.
35:03
SPEAKER_00: So now we got to rotate the bull anyway, and you spend all this money to buy this great bull, but now you got to figure out how to sell that bull, and then you gotta go find another bull to buy, and anyway, and all your money's tied up in the first bull, that is why this two-year lease option exists.
35:18
SPEAKER_00: There are you are not in the minority if you have 25 cows, you are in the majority.
35:23
SPEAKER_00: The majority of people who own cattle in the United States own less than 50 head.
35:28
SPEAKER_00: It is very, very, very common to have a herd of 25 cows and one bull.
35:33
SPEAKER_00: And if you've got a herd of 25 cows and one bull and you retain any daughters, the bull has to be rotated every two years.
35:39
SPEAKER_00: And if the bull has to be rotated every two years, it does not make financial sense to spend the money it takes to buy a bull, especially not the kind of money it takes to buy a really good bull, like this bull we're looking at here.
35:50
SPEAKER_00: I mean, look at the bull right now.
35:51
SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
35:52
SPEAKER_00: Look at him sit there, look at him.
35:53
SPEAKER_00: I mean, the bull's not even trying to show off.
35:56
SPEAKER_00: He just looks good all the time, you know?
35:57
SPEAKER_00: Strong topped bull, deep-sided bull, big hipped bull, deep flanked bull.
36:01
SPEAKER_00: Um gonna control the mature size in his daughter, he's gonna produce that proven longevity, that proven marbling, that proven outcross.
36:08
SPEAKER_00: But looking at a bull like that, if you can get into that in a two-year lease, you're controlling your cost up front.
36:13
SPEAKER_00: You don't have to worry about how to get him delivered, you don't have to worry about where to send him when he's done doing his job, you don't have to worry about how to go about any of the anything.
36:21
SPEAKER_00: It just makes it happen.
36:22
SPEAKER_00: A bull shows up for two years, you use him for two years, and then he's gone.
36:25
SPEAKER_00: Quite often, once people go to this approach of breeding on a two-year lease, they'll just have me send them another bowl on a two-year lease at that mark.
36:32
SPEAKER_00: Because now you're turning out a stud caliber level bowl.
36:35
SPEAKER_00: So you're basically getting all of the genetic benefits of AI without all the time and hassle and headache that are involved with applied reproductive technologies.
36:44
SPEAKER_00: This bull will gladly breed any cow in standing heat that you send to him for two years.
36:48
SPEAKER_00: So lot 10, winning bidder, has a two-year lease on CGX Little Al 4504M.
36:55
SPEAKER_00: Lot 22 is the initial release of semen on this same bowl.
36:59
SPEAKER_00: So anyone that would like to use this bull in an IVF setting, that is what this single unit of semen is for.
37:05
SPEAKER_00: So if I'm someone that says, hey, I've got a set of red wagyu donor cows, akuchi donor cows, and my goal is to make calves from those cows that are going to um have outcross value, that are gonna be disciplined for mature size, which translates to a smaller feed bill, which translates to cows that can hold up in rougher environments, which translates to animals that breed back more easily, even with reduced inputs.
37:31
SPEAKER_00: Um, that's where I'm gonna use that semen in this kind of setting.
37:35
SPEAKER_00: That lot lot 22, a single unit of big of the little owl bull, that's where I would use that.
37:40
SPEAKER_00: So if you're the guy that's looking for a live cover bull, get lot 10.
37:44
SPEAKER_00: It's the most cost-effective way you could possibly breed to a bull of this caliber, the easiest way you could possibly breed to a bull of this caliber.
37:50
SPEAKER_00: If you're looking to bull use a bowl like this in an IVF setting, buy lot 22, a single unit of semen.
37:56
SPEAKER_00: So the bowl we're looking at right now, that is exactly the look we're after.
37:59
SPEAKER_00: That is a super impressive individual.
38:02
SPEAKER_00: Love this bowl.
38:03
SPEAKER_00: This is a 2023 model.
38:04
SPEAKER_00: This is CG pole maru 3377.
38:08
SPEAKER_00: Look at the length on that bowl, look at the strength of top on that bowl, look at the hip on that bowl, look at the depth on that bowl.
38:15
SPEAKER_00: That is a danged impressive individual any way you slice it.
38:18
SPEAKER_00: Big, long, impressive, stout, thick.
38:21
SPEAKER_00: This is basically what brought me to Akuchi.
38:24
SPEAKER_00: I said, hey, I want Wagyu quality beef, but I want danged good animals to produce it.
38:29
SPEAKER_00: I don't want something that looks like a Wagyu or a Jersey Koriani cross.
38:33
SPEAKER_00: I want that.
38:34
SPEAKER_00: I want big, thick, stout, impressive, long, deep, good cattle that can produce exceptional carcasses.
38:41
SPEAKER_00: If all they are is a great carcass, that's fine.
38:44
SPEAKER_00: Black Wagyu's great, they do a wonderful job of what they do.
38:46
SPEAKER_00: If all they are is a super impressive animal, there's a lot of breeds that make a super impressive animal.
38:51
SPEAKER_00: But what I love about Akeushi, what brought me to the breed is that these are animals that can look the part, that can look like this bull right here looks, and they can put an incredible steak on the plate.
39:03
SPEAKER_00: Just a super, super unique individual here.
39:06
SPEAKER_00: So this is CG polled umumaru 3377.
39:10
SPEAKER_00: So this is a bull that we have offered semen on before, um, but have not offered it on in for quite some time.
39:16
SPEAKER_00: We sold out a semen on this bull, demand exceeded supply.
39:20
SPEAKER_00: This bull was outbreeding cows, live service um in Colorado uh for a client there on lease.
39:27
SPEAKER_00: Uh, just got home.
39:29
SPEAKER_00: Um, the bull looks fantastic.
39:31
SPEAKER_00: Love seeing him here as a mature bull.
39:33
SPEAKER_00: Uh, CG polled Umamaru 3377.
39:36
SPEAKER_00: This is the only pulled purebred son of the original WSI Umamaru in the entire breed.
39:43
SPEAKER_00: Um, so for those that don't know, Umamaru is gonna be a direct son of the original Katy Maru.
39:50
SPEAKER_00: So the Katie Maru cow that we have a clone of here, who is our biggest, thickest, stoutest, heaviest muscled cow.
39:56
SPEAKER_00: All the visitors take pictures with her.
39:58
SPEAKER_00: She's our number one highest marbling cow on actual carcass ultrasound, incredibly unique pedigree.
40:04
SPEAKER_00: This bull, this bull is gonna be a son of Umamaru, who is a son of the original Katy Maru.
40:11
SPEAKER_00: So, this bull, what makes him so unique, this is the only pulled purebred son of the original Umamaru in the entire American Akiyushi Association database.
40:22
SPEAKER_00: So, if you're looking to get pulled genetics together with Katy Maru genetics, two of the things that I most love to see in a pedigree, love seeing Katie Maru there, love seeing pulled purebred Okiushi genetics.
40:35
SPEAKER_00: What that translates to is you're getting the very, very, very best of the full blood gene pool in the Katie Marie genetics, and you're getting it in a naturally hornless package.
40:46
SPEAKER_00: So you don't have to worry about taking all the time and effort to dehorn those cattle, you don't have to worry about all the risk associated with loss or reduced performance from de-horning those cattle, and you don't have to reduce the quality of those cattle saying, well, they're naturally hornless, but they're that's all they are, is they're pulled and they're no good.
41:03
SPEAKER_00: No, this bull is putting together the best of the full blood genetics with the Katy Maru blood, with the best of the convenience genetics to call it that, to naturally remove horns rather than physically remove horns to get pulled umaru genetics.
41:18
SPEAKER_00: What a unique opportunity here.
41:20
SPEAKER_00: This bowl has not been available for quite some time.
41:22
SPEAKER_00: Um, so we're basically doing a re-release here to call it that.
41:26
SPEAKER_00: We are going to do a single unit in this auction, with the thought being this is an ideal opportunity for somebody to tie into this bowl for IVF use.
41:34
SPEAKER_00: I think enough of this bowl that I have got some of my very, very best pulled purebred females bred to this bowl, due to have calves shortly.
41:43
SPEAKER_00: Um, really excited about this individual and about how he looks today, about how his pedigree is.
41:50
SPEAKER_00: His mother is a full sister to the 577 donor.
41:53
SPEAKER_00: 577 is the dam of heavy duty here.
41:57
SPEAKER_00: Um, 577 has done over 100,000 in direct progeny sales for us.
42:01
SPEAKER_00: Dog gentle kind of a cow.
42:03
SPEAKER_00: Um, love seeing something like this come together.
42:05
SPEAKER_00: Say, hey, we're putting together Katie Maru, who's awesome, with a full sister to 577 who's awesome.
42:11
SPEAKER_00: We're doing it in a pulled package.
42:13
SPEAKER_00: Uh, this is a really, really unique opportunity.
42:15
SPEAKER_00: Lot 23 is going to be that single unit of CG polled umaru 3377.
42:22
SPEAKER_00: I will answer a quick question that's it's gonna be a pretty natural question for anybody watching this video.
42:27
SPEAKER_00: As we see this bull come up towards us, you can see what looks like little horn stubs on this bull's head.
42:35
SPEAKER_00: So I will answer the question that will invariably come.
42:37
SPEAKER_00: Look at this bull.
42:38
SPEAKER_00: Love seeing stuff like this.
42:40
SPEAKER_00: I mean, that that picture right there could go on a postcard.
42:44
SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
42:44
SPEAKER_00: With the bull stretched out and kind of a three-quarter angle on him, the river, the mountain.
42:49
SPEAKER_00: Um, what an awesome shot.
42:51
SPEAKER_00: If you're not watching this video, you should be.
42:53
SPEAKER_00: Um, but again, coming around to that head and seeing what looks like little horn nubs.
42:58
SPEAKER_00: It looks like, if you didn't know better, if you were looking at this bull, you'd say, well, that's just like a horned bull that's been dehorned, because it looks like there's the little horn stubs left that would be the remainder of a dehorning process.
43:10
SPEAKER_00: That's what it looks like looking at this bull.
43:13
SPEAKER_00: Um, the DNA test will tell you otherwise, this is a heterozygous pulled bull.
43:18
SPEAKER_00: So to answer the question of, well, what am I looking at then?
43:20
SPEAKER_00: These little horn stub looking things, those are scurs.
43:24
SPEAKER_00: So scurs are not actually horns.
43:26
SPEAKER_00: Scurs look kind of like horns.
43:29
SPEAKER_00: They never grow into big, full-on developed horns.
43:32
SPEAKER_00: They always stay this little stubby, dinky looking thing.
43:35
SPEAKER_00: They're not firmly attached.
43:36
SPEAKER_00: If we had this bull on the chute and we grabbed hold of that scur, what looks like that horn stub there, it's not firmly attached to the head like a horn would be.
43:44
SPEAKER_00: Um, so they're deceiving to look at.
43:47
SPEAKER_00: You know, if you're looking at this, I could totally see somebody watching this video saying, Hey Seth, you are peeing your pants excited because this is a pulled Katy Maru genetic bull.
43:57
SPEAKER_00: Um, but this bull clearly has got these little Nubby looking things that look like horns to me, those are scurs, and you'll run into scurs quite commonly in heterozygous pulled cattle.
44:09
SPEAKER_00: So, heterozygous pulled cattle, in especially in Akeushi, and man, look at this bull.
44:14
SPEAKER_00: Look at that angle, look at that shot.
44:15
SPEAKER_00: Sorry, I'm just geeking out over here.
44:17
SPEAKER_00: I mean, this this is as good as it gets.
44:18
SPEAKER_00: Is this caliber of bull in this setting at this age?
44:22
SPEAKER_00: I love that we're able to show this to you because what a cool shot.
44:26
SPEAKER_00: What a cool angle.
44:28
SPEAKER_00: I mean, you couldn't make that on AI if you wanted to.
44:30
SPEAKER_00: Anyway, so 3377, as we sit here and look at this guy, um, those scurs are common in heterozygous pulled cattle uh in the Akiushi breed, especially.
44:40
SPEAKER_00: So when the heterozygous pulled animal has one pulled parent, so in this case, this bull's mother is a homozygous pulled cow, and then they have one horned parent.
44:50
SPEAKER_00: So in this case, the sire, the original Umamaru bull, um, is a horned bull.
44:55
SPEAKER_00: So this bull is heterozygous pulled.
44:57
SPEAKER_00: He has one copy of the horned gene, one copy of the pulled gene.
45:02
SPEAKER_00: Um, so when we're looking at that, and what does that translate to?
45:05
SPEAKER_00: Okay, in this individual himself, we have scurs, right?
45:09
SPEAKER_00: We don't have big horns.
45:10
SPEAKER_00: This bull's never been dehorned.
45:12
SPEAKER_00: Now we could have cut those scurs off and then he'd look, you know, smooth.
45:16
SPEAKER_00: You wouldn't see any anything there at all.
45:18
SPEAKER_00: Um, but those scurs um are the result of being heterozygous pulled rather than homozygous pulled.
45:24
SPEAKER_00: So that's how it's the gene expresses itself in this bull himself.
45:27
SPEAKER_00: We did not have to de-horn this animal.
45:29
SPEAKER_00: Heterozygous pulled calves do not need to be dehorned, even if they have scurs.
45:33
SPEAKER_00: You can dehorn them, you can, like it's not gonna hurt anything to remove the scur, um, but the scur is not gonna grow into a horn, so you don't have to worry about that.
45:41
SPEAKER_00: Now, how are these animals gonna breed?
45:43
SPEAKER_00: Heterozygous versus homozygous pulled cattle.
45:46
SPEAKER_00: This is a common question I get, especially for anybody engaging in pulled uh purebred Akiushi genetics for the first time.
45:54
SPEAKER_00: I'll walk you through a couple of different scenarios here.
45:57
SPEAKER_00: So, as you look at this bull, as you look at lot 23 and you look at the potential of buying semen on this bull, this single straw, and using it in an IVF setting.
46:06
SPEAKER_00: Um, if you were to take this bull and you bred him to a horned donor cow, so say you've got a hundred percent full blood donor cow, you want to you know, breed her to make her pulled, knock those horns off the calf, um, and you bred her to this bull.
46:19
SPEAKER_00: In the case of a heterozygous pulled bull, like this bull, one copy, heterozygous means one copy, homozygous means two copies of the pulled gene.
46:27
SPEAKER_00: Um, if you if you bred a horned cow to this heterozygous pulled bull, you are statistically going to get 50% pulled calves and 50% horned calves.
46:38
SPEAKER_00: And the pulled calves you get will be heterozygous pulled.
46:41
SPEAKER_00: So 50% heterozygous pulled, 50% horned is what you'll get in that kind of a setting.
46:47
SPEAKER_00: Now, the second scenario that you could use a female light or a bull like this in, oh, and look at that, that sun's even gonna peek through and give us that light and make that red pop on that bull.
46:55
SPEAKER_00: What a pretty shot.
46:56
SPEAKER_00: Anyway, looking at if you took this bull and put him over a heterozygous pulled donor.
47:01
SPEAKER_00: So again, a donor female that has one copy of the pulled gene, one copy of the horn gene.
47:06
SPEAKER_00: If you're wondering if your animal is heterozygous or homozygous polled, you can look on their registration.
47:11
SPEAKER_00: Um, there'll be on the top left on the Akiushi Association registration, you'll see a horn status.
47:18
SPEAKER_00: Wow, look at that bowl.
47:19
SPEAKER_00: Anyway, sorry.
47:21
SPEAKER_00: Keep getting distracted.
47:22
SPEAKER_00: What a bowl.
47:22
SPEAKER_00: Um, but looking at this uh this horn status in the top left uh corner, you're gonna see it'll say horn status polled, and then it'll say either dash HP or it'll say dash PP.
47:35
SPEAKER_00: HP is horn pulled, i.e.
47:37
SPEAKER_00: heterozygous polled, pp is polled polled, two copies of the polled gene, homozygous pulled.
47:43
SPEAKER_00: Um, so a heterozygous polled animal, if you looked at your donor and you say, well, my donor says she's polled HP.
47:49
SPEAKER_00: So she is heterozygous pulled, he is heterozygous pulled.
47:53
SPEAKER_00: When you mate those animals together, this is like doing your little punnett square like you did in seventh grade in uh life science.
47:59
SPEAKER_00: That is that is what you're gonna see here, is exactly what that spits out.
48:03
SPEAKER_00: So you're gonna see 25% of the time that kind of a cross is gonna produce a horned calf, meaning that that baby inherited the horn gene from both the sire and the dam.
48:14
SPEAKER_00: 50% of the time that mating of heterozygous pulled cire, heterozygous pulled dam is gonna produce a heterozygous pulled calf, meaning it got the pulled gene from one parent and the horned gene from the other.
48:26
SPEAKER_00: The remaining 25% of the time, you will get a homozygous pulled calf from a heteropoled to heteropoled mating, meaning that the pulled gene is what was inherited from each of the two sires.
48:37
SPEAKER_00: Your odds statistically are 25% uh for rate of incidence of that occurring.
48:42
SPEAKER_00: Now, the final scenario in which you could use this bull, and then I'll quit talking punnett squares and and uh the inheritance patterns of the polled gene in Akeishi cattle.
48:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, but if you were to take a look at, man, sorry, what a picture there.
48:56
SPEAKER_00: I uh one of the if you're not watching the video, you should be.
48:59
SPEAKER_00: I keep getting distracted for a reason.
49:01
SPEAKER_00: Like it's just pretty dang cool.
49:03
SPEAKER_00: The lighting we got going on here, the angle we got going on here, the backdrop we got going on here, and this is just a super cool bull.
49:09
SPEAKER_00: Like, if you're not considering this bowl, you should be.
49:11
SPEAKER_00: If you can't tell, I'm excited, I'm clearly excited.
49:14
SPEAKER_00: Look at this bull.
49:15
SPEAKER_00: Lot 23 pole memorial.
49:18
SPEAKER_00: So if you use this bull on a homozygous pulled donor cow, um, statistically, what you would see is you will always get a pulled calf because the the if your cow, the dam, is homozygous pulled, the pole gene is dominant, you will always get a pulled calf if one of the two parents is is homozygous pulled.
49:36
SPEAKER_00: You will always get a pulled calf.
49:37
SPEAKER_00: 50% of the time you will get a homozygous pulled calf like the mother.
49:41
SPEAKER_00: 50% of the time you will get a heterozygous pulled calf like the sire, the bull in this instance.
49:47
SPEAKER_00: Um, so that is you know, much much ado about the how the the pulled gene works.
49:52
SPEAKER_00: Um, but if you're wondering what do I do with heterozygous versus homozygous pulled animals, my recommendation, you know, if you have a full blood cow, you generally want to be mating to a homozygous pulled bull.
50:04
SPEAKER_00: If you have a heterozygous pulled cow, you can go to heterozygous or a homozygous pulled uh cow or sire, I should say.
50:14
SPEAKER_00: And if you're looking at a homozygous pulled donor and you're looking to introduce really, really valuable outcross genetics, inserting the pulled, uh the Katie Mardu genetics plus another copy of the pulled gene, that is where I have used this bowl.
50:28
SPEAKER_00: Um, CG polled um marine 3377.
50:31
SPEAKER_00: What a stud, what an angle, what a look.
50:34
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I wish every single animal, every single time, happened to look that good and pose that good and have lighting that good and a backdrop that good, but we'll just have to make a bunch of postcards or something because wow, what a what a look on that bowl there.
50:48
SPEAKER_00: That is lot 23 CG pole doomer maru semen one unit for IVF use.
50:53
SPEAKER_00: So we're gonna let the video keep rolling on that pole doomer maru bowl just because he looks so dang good.
50:58
SPEAKER_00: We'll let him be the backdrop to the the tail end of the stuff we're gonna talk about that's not gonna be on video today, um, but that I do want to mention as far as some unique lots to keep an eye out for in this auction.
51:08
SPEAKER_00: Reasons why you should go directly to cgauction.givesmart.com.
51:13
SPEAKER_00: By the point in time this is published, the auction will also be live.

51:28
SPEAKER_00: Um, but some things I want to mention that are not gonna be on this video today.
51:32
SPEAKER_00: Lot 7 is an opportunity to aspirate CGX Marbling X919G.
51:39
SPEAKER_00: This is the original, this is the cow that started everything here at Christensen Genetics.
51:45
SPEAKER_00: This cow has done over$300,000 in direct progeny sales for us here at Christensen Genetics.
51:52
SPEAKER_00: This is the mother of uh CG Davy Crockett 1001.
51:57
SPEAKER_00: This is the mother of CGX Atreides 3397L.
52:01
SPEAKER_00: This is the mother of CGX Spectrum 3393L, and the granddam of PhD who just sold semen for$1,800 a straw in the last auction, as well as an upgrade to female sex semen being purchased for an additional$500 for$2,300 a straw on that grandson of um 919, as well as a tradies whose semen sold for$2,300, that same figure for conventional semen um from uh a son of this 919 cow.
52:33
SPEAKER_00: This is an AWA registered big Al by Hikari by Shigamaru by Ume Cow.
52:39
SPEAKER_00: Um, let's again throw up the image right here of the F1 beef from Davey Crockett.
52:44
SPEAKER_00: So this F1 beef would be sired by Davy Crockett.
52:47
SPEAKER_00: Um, there is semen on Davy Crockett in this auction.
52:50
SPEAKER_00: Keep an eye out for that.
52:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, Davy Crockett is a son of 919.
52:55
SPEAKER_00: So again, proving out the carcass quality of 919.
52:58
SPEAKER_00: We'll also throw in an image right here of the 3417 steer.
53:02
SPEAKER_00: 3417 is a full brother to a Trade's and Spectrum.
53:06
SPEAKER_00: Spectrum Semen is also featured in this sale, in addition to this aspiration on 919.
53:11
SPEAKER_00: Do not miss out on an aspiration like this.
53:15
SPEAKER_00: To have a chance to aspirate a donor of this caliber is rare.
53:19
SPEAKER_00: I do not offer aspirations on cows like 919 very often at all.
53:25
SPEAKER_00: And there's a reason for that.
53:27
SPEAKER_00: We use the heck out of 919.
53:29
SPEAKER_00: Love this cow, love the offspring she's given us.
53:32
SPEAKER_00: We plug in a lot of these here.
53:34
SPEAKER_00: Um, an IVF aspiration, real quick rundown if you're not familiar, an IVF aspiration gives you the right to one IVF aspiration of the bull of your choice.
53:44
SPEAKER_00: You pay one flat price, the bid price for the right to aspirate this cow one time.
53:49
SPEAKER_00: You pay for your choice of semen.
53:51
SPEAKER_00: You will need one straw to fertilize the oocytes from this cow one time.
53:56
SPEAKER_00: We will guarantee at least three female sexed embryos if female sexed semen is used, or at least five conventional embryos if conventional semen is used.
54:07
SPEAKER_00: And the upside is all yours.
54:10
SPEAKER_00: So if she produces 10, 15, 20 embryos, they are all yours.
54:15
SPEAKER_00: So you've got all of the upside, you are protected on the bottom side.
54:19
SPEAKER_00: There's no reason not to buy an IVF aspiration here.
54:22
SPEAKER_00: Do not wait for me to offer another 919 aspiration because the odds are you will be waiting for a long time.
54:30
SPEAKER_00: Go ahead and get this bought.
54:32
SPEAKER_00: This is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come up very often.
54:35
SPEAKER_00: Don't sleep on it, don't miss it, don't pass on it, don't scroll by, don't think, well, you know, opportunities like this come up every day.
54:43
SPEAKER_00: They don't, they won't.
54:44
SPEAKER_00: Go ahead and double down on lot seven, get that IVF aspiration bought.
54:49
SPEAKER_00: This cow has put north of$300,000 in my bank account.
54:56
SPEAKER_00: You want to talk about paying some bills, you want to talk about getting some cattle bought, you want to talk about putting together feed, equipment, facilities, all the things it takes to run a herd.
55:05
SPEAKER_00: Cows like 919 get it done.
55:08
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking to get a foundation female like her made, 919 came here as an$800 embryo.
55:15
SPEAKER_00: So I'm just telling you,$800 to$300,000.
55:18
SPEAKER_00: I'm not a rocket scientist, but the upside there was pretty good.
55:22
SPEAKER_00: And I would definitely say, hey, there's an opportunity to be had.
55:26
SPEAKER_00: Don't miss out.
55:27
SPEAKER_00: Lot 7 CGX Marbling X919G IVF Aspiration.
55:32
SPEAKER_00: Another couple things I want to mention before we wrap up here, that the lots you should not miss.
55:38
SPEAKER_00: Lot 19, another straw of PhD Semen.
55:42
SPEAKER_00: Uh, like I mentioned, first straw win at$1,800.
55:45
SPEAKER_00: There is the option to upgrade to female sex semen for an additional$500.
55:50
SPEAKER_00: That option is available to the winning bidder.
55:52
SPEAKER_00: Lot 9 is going to be an IVF aspiration on a homozygous pulled donor.
55:59
SPEAKER_00: So you want to talk about an opportunity here.
56:01
SPEAKER_00: I just walked through all of what this 3377 bowl, this pulled Umamaru bowl, I just walked through what he is.
56:09
SPEAKER_00: If you want to talk about the ideal setting for this bowl, I just told you where I use this bowl is over a homozygous pulled donor.
56:18
SPEAKER_00: And what am I offering in lot nine?
56:20
SPEAKER_00: An IVF aspiration on a homozygous pulled donor.
56:24
SPEAKER_00: CG Guapa 3330 pulled is a full sister to CG Guapo 3352 pulled.
56:32
SPEAKER_00: The Guapo bull is one of our most popular semen sires.
56:36
SPEAKER_00: Month in, month out, the semen price does not go down on Guapo, and that is because everyone wants him.
56:43
SPEAKER_00: And for good reason, those cattle are thick, they gain quickly.
56:47
SPEAKER_00: He is homozygous polled and the cattle marble.
56:49
SPEAKER_00: So if you're looking for more of the same, an IVF aspiration on his full sister, who is also homozygous pulled, that you could mate to a bull like CG Pole Dumamaru 3377.
57:02
SPEAKER_00: Don't miss out on lot nine.
57:04
SPEAKER_00: That is the kind of female that can make any bull in the breed produce a pulled calf.
57:11
SPEAKER_00: So don't miss out on lot nine.
57:13
SPEAKER_00: Lot 12 is an example of exactly what I'm talking about there.
57:18
SPEAKER_00: Lot 12 is three embryos from CG Guapa 3330, the homozygous pole donor, sired by Summit.
57:26
SPEAKER_00: The Summit Bull is going to be the grand champion from the inaugural branded beef challenge at the American Akiyushi Association in 2026.
57:35
SPEAKER_00: Summit is owned by 16 Peaks in Tennessee, who won that initial branded beef challenge.
57:41
SPEAKER_00: Number one bull against all comers, the top sir uh the top strip loin as tested by a series of metrics at West Texas AM.
57:50
SPEAKER_00: Fantastic, fantastic beef, and beef that gets to that finish point quickly.
57:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, if anyone that anyone that's talked to Andrew knows he is not going to spend all of the time in the world getting those animals to marble at that level, he expects them to do so and do so quickly.
58:05
SPEAKER_00: So if you want to get summit genetics, but you want them pulled, lot 12 is where you want to be.
58:12
SPEAKER_00: Three embryos sired by summit out of the homozygous pulled donor, CG Guapa 3330, those animals will be pulled.
58:20
SPEAKER_00: They will be direct offspring of the grand champion of the inaugural branded beef challenge at the American Akiushi Association.
58:28
SPEAKER_00: Two more lots I want to touch on quick and we'll let you guys go.
58:31
SPEAKER_00: Lot 11, four embryos sired by Rushaw out of 121.
58:37
SPEAKER_00: Now, I'll tell you, the only thing more exciting than the fact that these embryos are sired by Rushaw, the 22,000 astra 1975 Japanese national champion, is that they are out of JC Ms.
58:50
SPEAKER_00: Rushaw 121.
58:52
SPEAKER_00: 121 has done over$200,000 in direct progeny sales here at Christensen Genetics.
58:59
SPEAKER_00: She is an American Wagyu Association registered cow that sports a Rushaw by Hikari, by Judo, by Homare Pedigree, straight foundation imports.
59:08
SPEAKER_00: These cattle gain.
59:10
SPEAKER_00: You want cattle that'll gain, you want cattle that'll milk.
59:13
SPEAKER_00: 121 herself has weaned an over 700-pound calf.
59:17
SPEAKER_00: Um, if you're looking for milk, you're looking for gainability, you're looking for pedigree.
59:21
SPEAKER_00: She herself is a direct Rushaw daughter, made it right back to her daddy.
59:26
SPEAKER_00: Now, before you look at me funny on that one, when we talk about bulls like Rushaw, they say, hey, when it works, we call it line breeding.
59:34
SPEAKER_00: It's only when it doesn't we call it inbreeding.
59:36
SPEAKER_00: And Rushaw over Rushaw has been proven to work.
59:38
SPEAKER_00: That same approach produced Brady for Heartbrand.
59:42
SPEAKER_00: In addition to that, 121 is the grand damn of the bull heavy duty.
59:47
SPEAKER_00: We'll talk about more in just a moment.
59:49
SPEAKER_00: But do not miss out, lot 11, what a unique pairing for embryos sired by the original import Rushaw, the most valuable bull in the breed.
59:57
SPEAKER_00: Out of none other than the 121 donor, one of the very most valuable females here, has produced more in progeny sales than nearly any other cow we have.
1:00:07
SPEAKER_00: Don't miss out on Lot 11 for Rushaw by 121 embryos.
1:00:11
SPEAKER_00: And the last lot I'm going to touch on before I let you go is lot 20 heavy duty semen, a single unit for IVF use.
1:00:19
SPEAKER_00: You want to talk about a bull that is mellow, that is easy to be around.
1:00:23
SPEAKER_00: One of the weaknesses of the Akeyushi breed, if you just go and buy Akiyushi cattle just anywhere, the odds of you getting something that is going to be nasty and honory to be around are pretty good.
1:00:34
SPEAKER_00: Heavy duty, by contrast, is a bull that'll walk right up to you in the pen, mellow, easy mannered.
1:00:40
SPEAKER_00: I pet this bull in the pen the other day.
1:00:43
SPEAKER_00: In addition to that, he is homozygous pulled.
1:00:45
SPEAKER_00: He will remove the horns from every calf he ever sires.
1:00:49
SPEAKER_00: In addition to that, heavy duty is our heaviest weaning Akuchi stud that we have semen available from 738 pounds at weaning.
1:00:58
SPEAKER_00: Um, so we're looking at docility, we're looking at the pole gene, we're looking at growth, and both his dam and his grand dam scan prime plus on actual carcass ultrasound.
1:01:09
SPEAKER_00: We will have a full brother to heavy duty on the rail by the end of the year to evaluate direct carcass quality.
1:01:16
SPEAKER_00: Do not miss out.
1:01:17
SPEAKER_00: Lot 20 heavy duty semen as an option to make any of your full blood cows produce a pulled calf.
1:01:23
SPEAKER_00: He's gonna get that done for you.
1:01:25
SPEAKER_00: Final things I'm gonna mention to you quick.
1:01:28

1:01:30
SPEAKER_00: So mark into your calendar September 30th, 6 p.m.

SPEAKER_00: So you're looking at 5 Pacific, 7 Central, 8 Eastern, be at your computer for closing.
1:01:41
SPEAKER_00: A horse race style finish means that the entire auction will extend by an additional five minutes every time a bid is placed on any lot in the auction.
1:01:50
SPEAKER_00: What that translates to is if nobody bids right at close, it closes right at 6 p.m.
1:01:55
SPEAKER_00: mountain.

1:02:20
SPEAKER_00: Refresh your browser, refresh your browser.
1:02:23
SPEAKER_00: The auction is not closed until the little banner comes down across the corner and says either you won or you lost or closed.
1:02:32
SPEAKER_00: Um, so continue to refresh, refresh, refresh.
1:02:35
SPEAKER_00: Do not assume that the auction is over because it looks like the clock has gone to zero.
