Welcome Red Angus
Welcome!
Welcome to our first annual bull sale. We are offering 28 bulls for sale this year and
believe them to be of exceptional quality. 2021 was a challenging year with the lack of
moisture and blistering summer temperatures. We had many challenges with our stock
ponds drying up and the overall shortage of grass. However, the cows bred up very well
considering, and our calves weaned off heavier with the harder grass. We’re very thankful
for the late fall rains we received and the winter moisture.
The bulls are developed slowly on a low mega-cal TMR that never exceeds a 48 mega-
cal. We don’t push the bulls hard because we don’t want them to fall apart during the
breeding season. They’re developed to last for many years.
We place a lot of emphasis on the mother cow here, and that’s why we display their age,
MPPA, udder and teat score with their son’s data. Our cows are pastured in the sand hills
of southeastern North Dakota on the edge of the Sheyenne National Grasslands. They
are not pampered and must work for a living. We do not under-stock our pastures in an
attempt to boost our weaning weights and keep all the cows in good shape. We run our
purebred cows at the same stocking rate as our commercial herd so that the data you’re
seeing is legitimate. This also helps us recognize differences in the fleshing ability of our
cows in an order to cull those that can’t maintain adequate body condition while raising
their calf.

Klay & Kassi Oland We cull hard here, especially for feet. We wouldn’t want to buy a bull out of a cow with
bad feet or udders and believe that nobody else would either. That’s why we never offer
5664 149th Ave. SE progeny for sale out of cows with those traits and avoid breeding to sires known to
Leonard, ND 58052 produce offspring with poor foot quality. It doesn’t matter how good their EPD’s are, if they
have bad feet, they’re culled.
