Sometimes the hardest decision in putting together a sale is which animal

will hold the coveted lot one spot. While sometimes pedigree dictates the

selection, other times it’s the animal’s conformation and make up that gives

it the title. This year’s sale has been no different. When we sat down and

started to compile the sale catalog I thought that this year’s selection would be

pretty simple, and I had my mind all but made up for months regarding which

animal deserved the top honor. Then, in August we got a call from one of the

breeds’ biggest supporters and oh, did he have a knock out for us…

You see it wasn't just the animals conformation, or that this calf stemmed

from a program that has seen many young individuals find their way to the

backdrop, it’s what the consignors wanted to do with the calf that made it a no

brainer for us. It’s with great honor and appreciation that we introduce Lot 1

from J&M Farm, SUGAR RAY!

Sugar Ray is sired by JAM’s Little Devil, and out of a great cow that stems

from some of the top genetics of the KAP herd. Husky’s Little Devil already

started things off on the right foot for J&M, as some of the top showman on

the TJLA circuit have found success with this young sires’ offspring.

100% of the proceeds from the lot go to the next generation of cattlemen.

Meredith, June and the Roberts family have decided to give all the money

raised for this lot back to the Texas Breeders Foundation, to insure continued

support of our activities for the miniature Hereford breeds’ young exhibitors.

her design and has that dark red color with eye pigment. Her maternal grand-

mother is doing an awesome job for us. (Check out her son in Houston) 157A

6 B4 ARMANDA

Great little heifer here. If you’re looking for one to put the first timer on or

just something to mix things up in your herd, here’s one to consider. The dam

of this female goes back to timeless cow family genetics of Largent, while the

sire has been a consistent producer for the Ivy Cattle. Heifer’s should be a

little larger frame, which seems to be the trend in the winner’s circle, while

both producers on the top and bottom of this female consistently produce low

birth weight offspring.

Muffie is a daughter of multiple Grand Champion “Sam”, whose offspring

have won more than a dozen Grand Championships. Her dam is one of our

smallest cows and is the spitting female image of her full brother, WW Tom

Thumb, who was Grand Champion, at the NILE in Billings, MT. Her full

sister, WW Tinkerbell, was also a Grand Champion and multiple Reserve

Grand Champion. Muffie has great charisma and is a pretty little girl with

nice markings and a chunky build. She is cute as a button and a terrific feed

This is the youngest lot in the offering, she comes from a diverse background

A moderate framed, easy fleshing heifer that will be a pasture exposed for the

last 30+ days leading up to the sale. With many breeders today introducing

their herds to the more powerful line of cattle in today’s show industry, it’s

easy to breed out of the material traits and milking efficiencies that have made

the Herefords a staple of the cattle industry. This heifer’s origins trace back

to the Largent family’s herds of West Tx. Many of the great producers in the

Miniature Hereford breed today can trace their foundation animals back to

this very herd. A very useful breeding piece in many herds. Whether you are

looking to add rib shape and softness to those show cattle, or get back some of

the easy keeping traits that Miniature Herefords are known for, this lot should

be one that we all study.

Here is a heifer that has been a standout since birth. This is the type of

She also has that cute little baby doll head that every good cow man likes in

his females, not to mention she is sired by the 2012 World Show Reserves

Frontier is a 5-year old ET polled bull that was produced from the Splitt

Creek program. This rugged Ozark son has been the heard bull at Blair Farms

fir the past 5 years. The dam of Frontier traces back many champion genetics

within the Miniature Hereford world. With polled cattle becoming more and

more sought after in and out of the show ring, this is certainly a bull worth

coming to Houston for..

These are the type of cows every cattleman loves to have. Easy fleshing, can

stay off rocks, breed back on time and are just flat good mamma’s. This heif-

er is an ex-show heifer that has a good looking heifer calf at side and been

pasture exposed prior to sell time. For those of you that are somewhat or an

economics guy, or your wife is, this is a can’t miss 3 in 1. Get the cow, some-

thing for the ones to show while having your money already generating next

year’s calf crop. Perfect starter package, or replacement female in this lot.

Only problem you’ll have with this gal is keeping range cubes in your hand

when she’s around.
