Let's talk about Naylor’s Angus & Shorthorn “Bred for Balance Production Sale” held Sunday, October 26, 1 pm CST at your farm in Halfway, MO. 
What a great conversation with Brett Naylor. Naylor Angus & Shorthorns has put together an excellent lineup for the “Bred for Balance Production Sale” this fall, and you won’t be disappointed. Brett was a great interview, and has a very simple philosophy that has worked well for the Naylor’s over the past 5 decades. “We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel, or veer too far in one genetic direction. That philosophy is to make specific matings that complement each other genetically to design the highest quality phenotype possible. Our philosophy has been honesty. Honesty in our weights, our birthdates, their contemporary groups, how they develop cattle, and how to recommend you use them”. Brett also believes the hide color does not determine quality. Naylors have chosen to make their home in the Angus and Shorthorn breeds for many reasons.
Brett and supporters of these cattle breeds maintain they possess outstanding qualities, particularly when applied in a crossbreeding program intended for commercial cattle operations. The fusion of the Angus breed's growth efficiency and development capabilities and the Shorthorn breed's temperament, durability, and maternal traits yields an exceptional animal. This position is validated by independent research that highlights the significant benefits of this crossbreeding method. Incorporating these high-quality breeds could greatly improve both productivity and financial success in the cattle sector.
Welcome to this year’s Bred for Balance Production Sale! What rousing times in the cattle industry, and the future doesn’t look to slow down. Naylor Angus and Shorthorns are proud of this set of bulls and females. Along with really sound Bulls, that will go out and do their job, they have available for bid Cow/Calf Pairs, Breds, Open Heifers, Embryos & Semen.
Brett states, “We have marketed many bulls over the years through various sales and directly from the farm. The fact that I can count on one hand the bulls we’ve replaced should speak for itself. Our bulls perform well in any environment.”
Naylor’s have an impressive lineup of bulls for this sale, but I would like to draw your attention to Lot 4; it immediately caught my eye. He features an exceptional phenotype and has 15 EPD numbers that rank in the top 25% for the breed.
Not only is this an exceptional lot of bulls, but there are some really sound cow/calf pairs along with bred females and heifers. Some really eye-catching females that would make a great addition to any herd.
Don’t forget about the embryo and semen lots if you're looking to do some AI and get new genetics into your operation.
Brett has a deep passion for Angus and Shorthorn cattle and is truly thankful for their past customers and successes. They appreciate the current customers and welcome new faces to Naylor’s Bred for Balance Sale in Halfway, MO. If you have any questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to Brett. They look forward to seeing you on October 26th!
