RHODES RED ANGUS :: FANCY FEMALES

We required Oracle's Rose as a yearling from Jake Meinders. Her Sire is the popular and powerful Brown Oracle B112. Her maternal grand sire is the Angus Bull EXAR 263. Her $Profit number is top 1% as is her $Ranch. We have one daughter in the herd and she is also a top producer. The last natural calf of EA006 sold for $20,000 at RA Brown Ranch Sale in October 2022. This is a top proven donor cow.

Ms Laura 964 is a very impressive young female. She was flushed in the winter of 2020 as a heifer and we have 4 ET calves born in the fall of 2021 out of Merlin 018. All 4 of these calves look to be special. 964 is out of our Z502 cow that was headed to the donor pen before an untimely death. The sire of 964 is our 7033E Bull. Ms Laura has the genetics and performance to go along with her breed leading epds. Her 3 ET Sons out of Merlin 018A averaged $12,833 in the RA Brown March 2023 sale. We have big plans for this proven donor cow.

The Windsong E205 donor cow has done a great job for us. She has a 106 MPPA on 4 natural calves all of which were sired by the AI bull. Based on her performance we started flushing her in early 2022. She has done well in the donor pen and her first ET calves will be born in the fall of 2023. E205 is a moderate size cow with good feet and a good udder and disposition. She has a pedigree comprimised of some of the legends in the Red Angus breed. And, her H99 daughter is now in the donor pen and is an impressive young cow.

Merlina H99 is the daughter of the E205 donor cow and the very popular Merlin 018A sire. We started flushing H99 as a yearling heifer and she has 4 ET calves and 1 natural calf on her record with many more to come. She has good feet and her udder and temperament are also good. We expect her to be a moderate size cow at maturity. We have big expectations for this young cow and she is off to an excellent start.

RHODES B281 KURUBA 680-H57 is one of our youngest donor cows. She was born 8-31-2020. Her picture was taken at 18 months of age. We transplanted her first embryos in in December 2022, and we have big plans for this donor. Her sire is Bieber Forefront B281 and we like him a lot. His progeny are very calm, typically dark red, and have good udders and feet. All of these traits are demonstrated in H57. Her dam is our KURUBA 680 cow out of Brown Alliace X 7795. She is a very attractive cow that has done a great job for us.

Ear Ramlin was the top seller in November of 2014 at the Erdmann & Sons Dispersal Sale. Ramlin has a foundation pedigree being out of Beckton Epic R397 and a Glacier Logan 210 cow. She has been a top producer for us including raising our Rhodes Ditka 605 herd bull that made a big impact on our operation. She is a big flusher and we have sold many embryos out of her. While we didn't flush her until 2021, she already has 20 calves on her record. 324 is a bigger cow with a calm disposition and good feet and udder. Look for more to come from this top female.

Andras Belle 1087 is a star in the breed. She is a black-red carrier daughter of Andras In Focus B152 and a 3/4 sister to New Direction R240 and the Kuruba R253 cow that we flushed for many years. 1087 is also a 3/4 sister in blood to Andras Fusion R236 now at ABS and our Belle R255 Donor cow. The pedigree of Belle 1087 contains 62.5% Angus outcross genetics and also carries a strong and well balanced EPD profile.  She is a powerhouse of a cow that comes with impressive calving ease. She has 50 progeny on her record with many more to come. We have only sold a few embryos on this cow.

Windsong 021 came from the Ellison dispersal in Missouri in 2014. She is sired by the great Make Mimi 7249 and out of Harmonys Windsong 0259. Her grand dam is the BJR Windsong 2269 cow that was such a good producer for the Ellisons and Moxleys at Majestic Meadows. This is the kind of cow that only comes available in a dispersal. She has 27 progency on her record with more to come. We have daughters in the herd including one we flushed several times but lost due to an injury. This has been a very good female. Unfortunately she came to the end of her distinguished career in the spring.

The Bonita 837 cow is the first calf born out of the Thomas Jefferson Angus Bull at Genex. She is a red female as the Thomas Jefferson bull has a red gene. Bonita has an outcross pedigree with 50% Angus genetics and 25% Canadian genetics. She is an impressive and powerful young female with excellent feet and udder to go along with a good disposition. 837 is just starting her career and her first calf out of Merlin 018A is an awesome young female that we flushed as a heifer. We look for big things from this powerhouse cow.

C-BAR ABIGRACE W9100
REG # 1311240

We purchased  C-Bar Abigrace W9100 from Steve Maier of C-Bar Ranch in 2016.  She is a daughter of the Abigrace P7905 cow that many believe was the best Abigrace L7730 daughter.  W9100 currently has 88 progeny on her record more on the way.  She is a full sister to the S602 cow that is the dam of the Contour 107X bull that was very popular at Accelerated Genetics. We lost W9100 in 2021 but she made a difference in our operation, and will be missed. 

Adina was a black-red carrier cow and a maternal sister to the record breaking 5L Destination bull that sold for $180,000. Adina currently has 64 progeny on her record with more to come. We have 12 calves born in the fall of 2021 and they look to be special. Unfortunately we lost 4039 in 2021 but her legacy will live on at our place and in the breed.

Belle R255 was the daughter of Andras In Focus B152 and a paternal sister to our Kuruba R253 cow and the Genex bull New Direction R240. In addition she is a 3/4 sister to ABS stud Andras Fusion R236.  Belle was the second high seller in the Andras 2013 female sale, second only to Kuruba R253.

Belle has a 50% Angus pedigree and a very solid EPD profile. Her first four natural calves were heifers and all are in our herd. John Collier of Collier Diamond C Ranch flushed R255 as a heifer and also has two young females in his top reputation head. R255 was a prolific flusher and we have sold some embryos from her to top Red Angus breeders. We lost her to injury in 2021.

Andra Kuruba R253
REG # 1600087

MS Big Sky was purchased at the Brown Ranch dispersal in October of 2013. On the same day the Brown Ranch sold 5 ET daughters out of MS Big Sky for and average of $7250 with the high seller going for $11,000. She was a Big SKY daughter out of a Mytty In Focus cow. She was deep and thick and easy to work with and wonderfully successful as a donor cow. We have sold numerous embryos as we could not keep up with her big flush numbers. We have several daughters and granddaughters in our herd and they are top cows. This was a foundation cow for us and the dam of 59 calves.
