Kansas Angus Association to Sponsor Angus-influenced Female Sale

 

            The Kansas Angus Association (KAA) will sponsor its annual spring Angus-influenced replacement female sale at JC Livestock Sales, Junction City, Kan.  The sale begins at 1 p.m., Saturday, April 12, and is currently seeking consignments of Angus-influenced young age cows, pairs, bred and open heifers.

            Females must be consigned in minimum five head lots, and all females must be eight years old or younger.  To qualify for this special sale, the females must meet Certified Angus Beef® (CAB®) live specifications: be predominantly black-hided; black white faces and/or “baldies” will be accepted; have typical beef-type conformation (no visible dairy influence); and be without long floppy ear and hump (no visible Brahman influence).

            Those interested in consigning cattle to the sale may contact Debbie Lyons Blythe, sale chairman at 785-349-2652 or e-mail debbie@blytheangus.com.  Entries will be taken up to sale day; however, those entries submitted prior to March 28 will be advertised. 

            Angus seedstock producers are encouraged to help inform their commercial bull customers of this sale as an option for producers to market source-verified Angus replacement females.  Consigners do not have to be KAA members.

            The sale is sponsored by the KAA.  Another KAA commercial female sale will be Dec. 6, 2008, in Pratt, Kan.

            For more information on the Kansas Angus Association and its projects visit www.kansasangus.org or contact Anne Lampe, Secretary/Manager at 620-872-3915 or kansasangus@wbsnet.org.
