Maddux Cattle Company’s Phase II “Maternalizer” Mature Bred Cow Herd Dispersal

Genetics    |    Working Ranch Radio Show

Saturday, March 7, 2026
At Ogallala Livestock Auction • Ogallala, Nebraska

THIS IS A GENERATIONAL OPPORTUNITY!

This sale represents Phase II of a three-year, nearly 6,000 head process to disperse our mature cow herd. These females represent generations of selection, retaining only the heifers that can graze our native Sand Hills, and raise a calf on their own year after year.

The cow herd has been built over decades with the goal of designing moderate, highly maternal, British based, low-input females. The herd is designed to thrive in a year-round grazing program. As a result, fitness and convenience traits have been a constant emphasis. The result is one of the largest, home-raised cow herds in America with generations of selection for udder quality, calving ease, and fleshing ability that deliver high fertility with maximum hybrid vigor.

Selling Approximately 3,000 Head of Home-Raised, “Maternalizer” Bred Females, Including:

500 2-year-old heifers (including 300 AI bred to high use Sim-Angus sire)

850 3-year-old cows

1,175 4- and 5-year old cows

500 6- and 7-year-old cows

Sale order is available here
