PAGE 2 • WESTERN EXPOSURE

It is with great pleasure and anticipation to present to you the 2014 offering of the first ever Western Exposure Female Sale. When I was considering the sale I knew, without a doubt, that I had to bring my best or I was going to be one and done. We are a commercial cow operation with a horrible addiction of trying to raise show steers. For the past fifteen years we have been keep-ing many clubby type females back with hopes of raising the next great one.

We have good intentions, but usually they get turned out with a bull and never see the straw of BIM or MAB they anxiously await. The high hopes of the next Denver Champion are lost to the realization that we eat because of the 600 lb. calf and not the fuzzy eared freak. With 2,500 commercial cows, only one hired guy, and a Border Collie that’s smarter than your honor student, there just aren’t enough hours to get it all done.

With that being said, please realize that this group of females have been selected from the heart of our herd. They were not under special treatment the past year or in a dry lot on the fat ration. The majority of the cows have weaned a calf this fall or were fall calvers and spun for the spring. They stayed out on grass till November and are in perfect condition. The bred heifers ran on grass until mid October in the high country of central Idaho. They have not been pampered and will not require any special treatment. They are bred to produce, not just picture. I feel anyone could incorporate these western genetics into their herd and feel the financial impact the first year and for years to come.

I believe there are many potential donor candidates offered as well as the start of many soon to be famous cow families. The offering is deep with a heavy influence of Simmental, Angus, and Club Calf genetics that can be an asset for any progressive herd. I thank you for your interest in the cattle, and please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions. - Trevor Roche

“We couldn’t be happier with the cattle we bought from Roche Cattle Company. The semi load of bred heifers calved in February 2013 in our hoop barn. They were very quiet and gentle to work with, easy calving, and extremely maternal. The weaning weights were through the roof and the keeper heifers look to have some real promise for the future of

our herd. You can’t go wrong with sound, functional cattle that are maternally and performance driven with elite show pedigrees. Thanks again for sharing your genetics and a piece of your program. It was great doing business with you.”

- Andy and Larry Platner from Lisbon Iowa

1 SIRE: WCC REVELATION DAM: WYOMING WIND

Two years ago we stopped at the local sale barn to buy some Angus cattle from a dispersion sale. The breeder had both Charolais and Angus cattle and was selling everything with four legs. After selling all the purebred cattle they had two pair of purebred Angus cows with week-old Charolais ET calves on their side. I’m not going to act like I had a clue what we were buying because I still don’t really know what I got; but I think we got a good one. Last fall when we were shipping calves whitey was heading towards the truck when I cut her off just because I heard the Char deal was heating up and I wanted to participate. This white beauty is as sexy fronted as any crossbred known to man. Plus, she has the square hip and rear leg set that Char breeders only dream about. Yes, she’s a purebred and, yes, she is the real deal! Seller reserves the right to one successful flush at the seller’s expense and buyer’s convenience with an equal split after 6 eggs.

Outlaw is a purebred Angus bull owned by Lee Cattle in Colorado and probably one of the most consistent Angus bulls we have used. He drops a load of muscle in his offspring and gives them the cool look. She is pretty darn complete and extremely stout for being a purebred. Her mother is one of our best Angus cows and a full sister to our lead Angus donor that averages 24 eggs per flush. I am going to sell her, but if someone wanted to partner on her give me a call. I think the world of her and would love to make her a donor! I’ll flush her, and you sell the overpriced show heifers.

Brilliance cattle are flat working out west and here’s the prime example. Just the right size, stout made, big topped, good boned and balanced so well the only flaw I see is that her eyelashes could be another quarter inch. Not only does she have the look of a great cow, she was also the Grand Champion Angus female at the Utah State Fair. Owning this girl would be the same as marrying a beauty queen that can cook, clean and bring home the bacon...sounds like a good deal to me.

I chased it with the Brilliance straw, but I’m not going to sell her to you that way. She is a flat good individual backed by a Meyer GD that is as powerful as they come.

This heifer comes from a neighbor we ran next to in Southern Idaho. They have real-world, purebred Simmentals that have to summer on ground not high enough in elevation for good grass and winter on ground not low enough to stay out of the snow. They not only survive; they thrive. She will be a great cow. She was brought off grass mid-November. I would say she’s kept herself in pretty good condition.

If you haven’t noticed, our pictures were taken after the first week in December. I love it when cattle are pictured mid-October for winter sales, with dingleberries hanging on them and the future buyer wonders why they don’t keep their flesh better than they do. This Upgrade daughter is a prime example of how a cow should thrive on grass. She came home way late from the high country, but has absolutely exploded since getting on feed in November. She is a real world female. Breed her anyway you so desire and she will get it done.

32 SIRE: UPGRADE DAM: NEW EDITION x ANCHOR

Recently people have been going crazy over these cattle that keep their condition all year long. They usually need a stool to reach the water trough and only raise a 900 pound yearling bull calf. That doesn’t work in the commercial world. I’ve also never met someone that couldn’t ride a roller coaster without disco boots that wasn’t an easy keeper themselves. This type of cattle needs more size but with the same fleshing ability. Cattle need to grow! This heifer is a prime example of one that will do exactly that. Take this one home and look smart. She will not disappoint.



33 SIRE: SAND RANCH HAND DAM: J & C WILMA W224

You won’t go wrong here and you can thank me later! This heifer comes from the high country where they run from wolves and chase the bears. She will raise one of the biggest calves in the herd and will breed back if she’s within ten feet of the bull. This is what I call good cattle. Stout, soft, big boned and complete.

The opportunities with this cow are endless! I mean that literally because I have no clue what her pedigree is! Once you get her home you can call her a Meyer, Full Flush, Chill Factor or Beefmaster, the opportunities are endless. I found her in a group of 400 commercial cows we had out in Jordan Valley, Oregon. A 450lb weaned calf in Jordan Valley is a monster. Bear Grylls would last about 8 hours in this country. To think this beast was roaming around there since her first calf heifer days speak volumes about her. No round bale feeder or scope of silage needed to keep her alive. She has survived on a grasshoppers ration! Based on her bangs tattoo, there is a good chance she is an Ali, but I’m not guaranteeing anything. I flushed her this spring to Monopoly and got 11 eggs. Her natural calf out of some sorry bull roaming the desert sold for $2,000 this fall. I can’t even imagine how good her Monopoly 2 calf will look this spring. Seller reserves the right to one successful flush at the seller’s expense and buyer’s convenience with an equal split after 6 eggs.

66 SIRE: WHO MADE WHO DAM: MAINE x ANGUS

Step up to the plate here boys! Big time donor potential! Her first calf sold for an astounding 20k to Texas. Her next calf sold for 25k to Iowa and she averages over 30 eggs per flush. Ever noticed how the top cows in most sales have over 100k in sales by the age of 4! I’m sure that has happened, but let’s be honest. I actually have no data on this cow. She was my pick of the bred heifers a few years back but has always been out and about and never close to home. She has never been AI bred. She could be the next great one! Roll the dice here, it could be snake eyes!

67 SIRE: BAR CK BULL DOZER x LUCKY DICE DAM: NICHOLS LEGACY

If you are looking for a big time, purebred Simmental donor you might want to stumble into this little ol’ lady’s pen January 4th. She’s the real deal and quite impressive in person, on video or standing in a bog. Super soft made with a great front end for being pure. Bid with confidence on this one, she’s the type that your neighbor’s salebarn bull can jump the fence and breed and still make you money! I flushed her a couple times this spring and averaged 6 good eggs per flush.

If you’re into red heads this cow will suit you just peachy. She is a stout, clean fronted, purebred Simmental that is moderate, but not a midget! I have flushed her three times, I believe, with no amazing results, but I would say she has average 6 to 7 eggs per flush, which is about average. I am excited to see what her natural calf out of Workin Man will be. I have sold bulls and heifers out of her, just pray for a live one!

69 SIRE: ALI DAM: ANGUS

Believe it or not, but this cow weaned a 600 pound Jimmy the Greek heifer in October, stayed on grass till the 20th of November and carries condition like a sumo wrestler! She was a successful show heifer throughout the Northwest and made an even better cow. Not the typical show heifer either, she calves and actually likes the calf! Doesn’t need convinced calving was a good idea like most show heifers. Plus, she has an udder that would make most Holsteins jealous! She’s a good pig.

Hey looky here, finally one with some honest BS behind her. I sold her Monopoly heifer calf to Chris Beutler for $1,200, he sold her as a bred for $4,500, and that first calf sold for just under 5K! Moral of the story, she’s really good, and I’m a horrible trader. Cool blaze face and super big middled. She milks, mothers and makes money! Yup Yup Yup!

71 SIRE: BR MIDLAND DAM: COLEMAN BLACKBIRD 713

A direct daughter of BR Midland originating from the famous Coleman Angus herd in Montana. Everyone goes crazy over Montana Angus cattle; so how much better is a well traveled Montana Angus? She raised an awesome heifer calf this year that will stay in the herd and is bred back to Iron Moutain! This is a fertile vessel on four legs. You could probably use her straw of semen next spring as pour-on and have a 50% chance!

To be flat honest these Perfect Blend daughters are as good as any sire group around and here’s another one that would click with about anything. Super stout, big middled and sound! No blaze but hey, they all can be perfect! FYI she wheezes when breathing heavy but has been that way for years with no problems.

Here is another cow that is flat out awesome to look at, but I have no idea just how good she is. She has never been AI bred. She has always been far from home and not close to a chute. She is rocket fronted with a shot of bone hip and belly. Quite possibly one of the most attractive and exotic cows in the offering with a great maternal pedigree to boot.

Finally, another one with some BS behind and not the typical bred cow for sale that has ran dry for two years, finally stuck AI, and is now a donor candidate! This cow has raised some good ones around here and her latest calf is currently residing in Mineral Point, Wisconsin, waiting for some unsuspecting buyer. Ask Bob May what he thought of her when he was in Idaho this summer if you have any doubts. She’s the choke necked, big boned freak everyone is wanting these days.

This cow is the start of the Perfect Blend daughters which are maternal-ly bred to the hills. She is a stout, powerful monster that raised a great BIM steer that sold into Washington. Not only do they have the look but they bring the groceries. These things spit milk like a fountain. No worries about their ability to feed one!

If this bred beauty doesn’t trip your trigger, I wasted a lot of money on freight and postage. She is bred for excellence with Meyer, 6807, Pale Face and Full Flush influence from both sides. Plus, she has the ever so attractive splash of white on the face, if only it was a blaze! Bred to BIM, this could be a homerun the first year! Very easily a future donor or success cow family in the making.

This is the Betty White of the sale. Although long in the tooth, she is still an asset to have on the team. She raised one of the most dominating steers in the west and we have been able to keep many heifers out of her. Old school genetics at their best with a shot of Dry Ice and Char before it was the cool thing. She has many years ahead of her.

85 SIRE: EYE CANDY DAM: FULLBACK DONOR

This next group of Eye Candy females are really nice. Of all the club-by bulls, I would have to say the Eye Candy females are by far some of the best. They keep a maternal look and are extremely loose made and broody. There is no such thing as a loose made cow that couldn’t milk or raise a calf and that theory holds true here. Not only will they spit one out but they will like it to. These are proven cattle here with great fleshing ability.

Moral of the story, I’m not a huge fan but these next three have honestly raised some nice Char and Simmental influenced cattle.In fact, the three averaged $1,900 on one Yellow Jacket and two Broker heifers just this year.

If you mention Who Made Who females in Idaho people will think you’re talking about AC/DC groupies from the 80’s. If you do the same in Iowa you will hear how good the champion steer was in Des Moines out of that great Who female. Rather, you are in Idaho or Iowa the who females flat out get it done! This husky beauty was literally on grass till Nov. 20th. She breeds, converts, moves, milks and could probably make you a Denver omelet if you taught her how to turn the stove on. She has never been flushed but I would like a piece of the pie on this one. She’s plum good and begging for some FSH.

No guessing on this purebred Hereford cow. She already had her cancer eye taken, she usually aborts before calving, thus avoiding the prolapse, and she doesn’t milk enough to ever have a bad bag. Finally, a Hereford with no problems! Actually she is missing an eye, thus making her spook proof on the driver side, but she does milk and has raised some really nice calves in Idaho. Super long sided and powerful with a load of bone! She is a purebred, but papers are not available.
