Sale Overview




















Sale Catalogue
Welcome to our 4th Annual Online Female & Genetics Sale!
We are trying something different for 2023 and not designing an issuu catalogue.
The complete sale listing is below.
It's all here.
All lot photos and videos were taken, on pasture, right before weaning in early September.
The heifers have changed a lot since then, so we plan to take updated videos before sale day.
Lot 1
RAINBOW RIVER BRANDY 55L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: MADER WALK THE LINE 92J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER BRANDY 9B



Take note that this is the only heifer in the entire offering that has such an abundance of support photos. Let that be a testament to how fondly I feel about her dam and cow family. 9B has been an outstanding cow for us over the years. Her dam was a big, powerful, dark cherry red cow that I had retained from my dad's original herd when I started my own breeding program. Crossing 76U with the maternal master, MRL 67X, created a synergy like no other in 9B. She has never failed me no matter what sire I've thrown at her, has always bred on first A.I. service, always stamps her dark red colour on her calves, weans a big calf EVERY SINGLE YEAR and does so with ease. Her last 6 calves have all ranked in the top 4 or better at weaning. Her feet, her udder, her maternal instincts, her easy fleshing ability are on point. A cow that I have identified as donor worthy after her many successes in production. I wanted to flush her to Walk The Line this spring but couldn't make her heat date work with my ET vet's busy schedule. I decided to re-breed her to WTL again for a 2024 calf then she WILL be flushed next spring. I honestly cannot believe that I've decided to offer 55L for sale as I have never let a direct daughter of 9B go before. I sold a granddaughter from 9B to Crooked Creek Farms in Ontario during the drought of 2021 and while it was hard to let that heifer go, Colton is very high on that female. He showed her with success as a bred at some summer shows and the Toronto Royal in 2022 and sees a big future for her going forward. I think the future will be bright for 55L as well because the apple doesn't fall far from the tree with this cow family. 55L entered this world a mere 89 lbs, exploded to 814 lbs at weaning in mid-September, and earned a WW ratio of 109. Impressive, but nothing out of the ordinary for a Brandy female. Dark red, thick made, bold sprung and sired by the hottest red Simmental bull in Canada only adds to her value!












RAINBOW RIVER HONEY 13L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: MADER WALK THE LINE 92J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER HONEY 19E


If this pretty lady ends up anything like her dam, she should make a cow! Sired by the $285,000 Walk The Line and out of a highly maternal and very productive Spark Plug cow, on paper this heifer stacks up some pretty special cow power. Darlin' and Brooke are currently two of the best red donor cows in the breed and they both sit up front in 13L's pedigree. 13L's dam has been very consistent in production with her first son fetching just shy of $10,000 to McRuer Simmentals a few years ago. Her next son we retained and used ourselves before sending him to MSE Land and Cattle Co, in SK. He sired our best female in our bred heifer group this year! This heifer's granddam was a very productive Line Drive cow but we lost her prematurely to a breeding injury after only giving us two calves. 19E was her first calf, and the second was our Finalist bull that we showed a few years ago. In selecting some feature heifers to offer this year, 13L was an easy choice.







Lot 2


RAINBOW RIVER UPTOWN GIRL 61L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: MADER WALK THE LINE 92J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER UPTOWN GIRL 1H
A very fancy fronted Walk The Line daughter that stands square and true on all four corners, with a wide top, strong spring of rib and a little extra performance. She was in heat the day we took pictures and videos, so it was hard to get a good shot of her. Longevity is a staple in her cow family with her granddam coming 16 years of age and still being perfectly sound and due to have her 14th calf early next year. Yes, the bottom half of 61L's pedigree is different than most, but her production potential is solid. Consider her outcross pedigree an advantage for mating flexibility. 61L's dam is a second calver whose first calf was a nice calving ease bull that was popular in this year's bull sale. 1H has a perfect udder and I expect udders to be excellent in these Walk The Line cattle as well.




Lot 3
RAINBOW RIVER REEBA 84L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER REEBA 40H


A feature heifer is on offer here in this big performance Mandate daughter and granddaughter of our Reeba donor! She is the 5th highest ranking in our main contemporary group of heifers this year, with a WW ratio of 109, and she comes by that performance honestly. Combining the growth curve of Mandate with the power and maternal strength of our Reeba cow family can only result in her degree of growth through predictability and consistency. Her dam is a bigger framed, very feminine Structure daughter with a beautiful profile and udder. 84L's softness, capacity, length of body, extra base width, ease of movement and docility are to be appreciated. This one just keeps getting better and better with age, and I think she's most impressive in the flesh. If you're looking for a good, red Mandate daughter with a ton of future, 84L is your girl. If you're lucky enough to own a Reeba, you understand how valuable they are!




Lot 4
Lot 5
RAINBOW RIVER BELLE 56L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: LFE STRATTON 3094F
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER BELLE 14B


The dam of this heifer has been an extremely good cow over the years. I sold 56L's maternal sister as our feature open heifer in our Online Production Sale last year. That heifer ended up being our high selling female and went to a great home at Robb Farms, SK. Another daughter sold through our bull sale a few years ago to Drew Don Simmentals in Ontario and, no surprise, feedback on her has been very positive. I have three very productive daughters from 14B in-herd including a gorgeous two year old Tycoon daughter who is certainly following the cow family's footsteps as she just weaned off our best red bull at 922 lbs - off a first calf heifer! Watch for him at Ag Ex this fall. Then there is 9X, the granddam of 56L. That cow is a matron, no two ways about it, and she's still in production I might add, at coming 14 years of age. Long story short, this heifer has so much potential. Bonus - she's dark red with some chrome!







Lot 6
RAINBOW RIVER LINETTE 119L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: RAINBOWRIVER PROTEST 57J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER LINETTE 60G


I've been working towards expanding the Linette cow family into the red side of our program for the last 9 years. Since our foundation Linette 823U donor was homo black, it took a few generations to finally get a red daughter to bring my goal to fruition. 60G, the dam of this heifer, was the ticket and that means 119L is only the second red Linette female to ever be born in our program. Even cooler, she’s dark red as well! 60G really impressed me with the job she did on 119L this summer. This young lady has secured the heaviest adj WW in her entire contemporary group (739 lbs) and her dam made it look easy bringing in a heifer with that level of performance. 119L is a dark red, soggy, performance powerhouse that earned a whopping WW ratio of 112. She is also the first daughter that we are selling from our walking sire, Protest, who is a direct son of two breed legends - Tycoon x Sage 506C. Protest’s full sisters have taken the show and sale rings by storm over the last couple years so we are very excited about his future here. The maternal strength that is bred into this heifer is something to think about. It's no secret what the Linette cow family has done for our program over the years. Take this chance to get in on the only red Linette we have ever offered for sale. We won't be parting with many red Linette's in the future, that's for sure!







Lot 7


RAINBOW RIVER AMBER 12L
HOMO POLLED | RED | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER AMBER 42F
When we purchased Mandate, we liked the fact that he was hetero black because we wanted to generate some red cattle that are outcross to most red bloodlines. Her dam came to us as a frozen embryo from Lewis Farms and the Amber cow family has been a leading red cow family for the LFE program over the years. 12L's granddam, 205T, was shown to Reserve Champion Female at Farmfair in 2010, and to Grand Champion Female and Supreme Top10 Finalist that same year at Agribition. 42F produced a feature bull in her first year of production and another good son sold this past spring. I really like the softness, squareness and femininity of this heifer, along with her easy going disposition. 12L was born with a small 78 lb BW and I think she's going to produce with more calving ease than her EPDs currently suggest. She is almost a carbon copy of her dam when she was the same age.




Lot 8
RAINBOW RIVER AMANDA 35L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: SPRINGCREEK AMANDA 127C


35L is one of our favourite Mandate daughters this year. Her dam was a donor for Spring Creek Simmentals before I lucked out acquiring her through a private treaty deal a few years ago. 127C was my pick of the Spring Creek herd that fall with her outstanding feet and udder, length and depth of body, fullness of heart, unique hip structure, femininity, and of course the cherry on top - her sire, Springcreek All In 155Y, a bull who knew how to make females. We have retained 127C's Fireball daughter and wow, did that female ever bring home an impressive bull calf this fall! Almost unbelievably, she weaned off 80% (yes, seriously) of her body weight as a first calf heifer AND rebred by A.I. to calve in early January next year. 127C herself was purchased with intentions to flush but we have taken a couple years to breed her a couple of different ways to get a feel for how she works. The verdict is she makes a quality calf no matter what sire we throw at her. Her 2022 calf by Supercharged was our best black bull last year but sadly we lost him before bull sale. Then 35L is the third calf she's given us. I liked 35L so much at a young age that I bred 127C back to Mandate again for a 2024 calf. The plan is to finally flush 127C next spring, which is why I feel that I can comfortably part with this feature daughter of hers. 35L is deep bodied and feminine like her dam, has nice natural muscle expression and shape, and stands squarely on impressive feet. Foot quality will be a staple in this heifer with square toes, large hoof size and perfect heel depth bred in from both sides.




Lot 9


RAINBOW RIVER ROXY 63L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER ROXY 85G
63L is very feminine, clean fronted and deep bodied with a soft, sweeping underline and bold spring of rib. Structurally, she is the ideal type of female I strive to create and source. She has a very attractive profile and tends to catch your eye. Her young dam is puppy dog quiet and has been showing a lot of promise early in production with her first calf ending up as our high selling red bull in 2022. 63L's granddam, who we acquired as an embryo from Canadian Donors and is a direct daughter of the Double Bar D Roxy 186X donor, also produced our high selling black bull in 2022. 63L should have tremendously good feet with Mandate and Impact backing her pedigree. They are two of the best footed bulls we have ever used. Those two bulls have also been reliable in chopping gestation and BW in their calves. This heifer’s dam shortens gestation, also. Expect 63L to follow suit. She is bred to calve easy with CE and BW EPDs at the top 4% and 10% of the breed.




Lot 10


RAINBOW RIVER ROSE 90L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER ROSE 55J
If you like your females with all kinds of center body and depth of rib, take a look here. She comes by her capacity and softness honestly from her big barrelled, moderate framed dam. Notice that she is mothered by a first calf heifer and is sired by Mandate. I don't care what Mandate's EPDs read right now, he is heifer safe and we used him on heifers again this year. His EPDs already leaped ahead by 20% for both CE and BW and should continue to change once more progeny are registered. 90L is double bred calving ease with having Mandate and Impact stacked on top of each other. Expect her to shorten gestation and make BW smaller in her calves. Be sure to check out her EPD profile, there's a fair bit of green on her chart. She's got a nice balanced set of numbers with extra CE blended with performance. Like most of the Mandate progeny, this heifer has a nice disposition as she was always curious and friendly all summer during pasture checks.




Lot 11
RAINBOW RIVER WHISPER 112L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER WHISPER 34J


The dam of this heifer is a big, powerful two year old with excellent feet and a very good udder. She makes an appearance at the end of 112L's video. She raised 112L to be the 3rd highest ranking heifer in our main group of open heifers, with an adjusted WW of 723 lbs and ratio of 109. Check the age on 112L - she is one of the youngest heifers on offer but sure doesn't look it. 34J was bred late to no fault of her own last year, but she pulled her breeding ahead by a month this spring. That's no easy feat for a first calf heifer. Take note that 34J is also a maternal sister to our feature and high selling bred heifer that we sold in our inaugural Online Production Sale four years ago, underscoring the production merit of this cow family. I love the softness that 112L displays and her natural dimension and capacity in her middle third. Big barrelled, soft made cattle are the easy keeping kind around here. She is one that I wish I could keep, but we want to offer some of our favorite heifers this fall. Being a daughter of our highly exclusive, $160,000 Mandate just sweetens the opportunity.




Lot 12


RAINBOW RIVER LINETTE 124L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER LINETTE 79J
Here is our second heaviest adj WW heifer this year with an outstanding adj WW of 737 lbs and WW ratio of 112. In her contemporary group, the only other heifer to outgain 124L was another Linette female, 119L, who also sells as Lot 5. What does their performance tell you about the Linette cow family? Note that 124L's dam is a first calf heifer and a direct daughter of our deceased matriarch and donor, Blacksand Linette 823U, who we purchased for $17,000 at the Blacksand Dispersal in 2014. Even better, 79J is also a granddaughter of the renowned RF Certainly Flirtin 202Z. Of all the Linette daughters we've had over the years, 79J is the closest replica of 823U that we've created. When you read 124L's pedigree, you realize that her quality is no accident. This young heifer has a lot to offer with pedigree, performance and good looks.




Lot 13
RAINBOW RIVER LINNE 34L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER LINNE 39D


We did not picture or video this heifer because she was on my keeper list. However, when another heifer had to be pulled from the sale offering, the best replacement was up to bat, which is 34L. Her dam is a beautiful daughter of the Springcreek Linne 10R donor and always gets picked out on pasture tours. A maternal sister to 34L was one of the high sellers in our Online Production Sale last year. A maternal brother by Lieutenant was also a feature bull in our 2022 bull sale. This heifer has Mandate's big, strong feet on her already at this stage and is puppy dog quiet. She was nearly impossible to picture this summer because she was only two feet away from me most of the time! The only photo I could find of her was taken in early September when she was in heat. Stay tuned as we plan to get an updated photo and video before sale day.




Lot 14


RAINBOW RIVER MS MORGAN 7L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER | TWIN
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOW RIVER MS MORGAN 24E
The dam of this heifer is very fertile and an outstanding producer having raised multiple feature bulls, including a $10,000 high seller in 2021. 24E entered our donor program this spring. Her granddam, 41C, was purchased as a calf from Labatte Simmentals for $19,000 and was also a donor for us prior to her accidental death as a second calver. 41C was geared to transform our program, it was a very sad day and big loss when we lost her. 7L's maternal great granddam is a donor for the Labatte program as well. There's lots of cow power stacked up in this little lady! We are retaining 7L's twin sister.








Lot 15
RAINBOW RIVER ROSE 9L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOWRIVER ROSE 49G


A very quiet and friendly heifer with some extra frame that comes from a strong, young cow and dominant cow family. We really like the maternal qualities of our Riddler cows. They milk very well, make good mothers, are quiet and tend to keep BWs moderate in their calves. We have a maternal sister to 9L retained in-herd. Foot quality should be very good in this heifer. 9L's three quarter sister, 90L, also sells.




Lot 16


RAINBOW RIVER WHISPER 48L
HOMO POLLED | BLACK | OPEN HEIFER
Sire: R PLUS MANDATE 1044J
Dam: RAINBOW RIVER BLACK WHISPER 16D
A very quiet and easy going Mandate daughter is on offer here. She is the biggest framed heifer in the sale and also has the extra length of body that Mandate stamps on his progeny. Her cow family is one of the best footed cow families in our program. Add in Mandate’s unrivalled foot quality and I am sure that foot quality will be locked into 48L. Her dam has been a top producer in our herd having raised our high selling bred heifer in our inaugural Online Production Sale four years ago. She has also put a feature heifer through our bull sale, her 2021 daughter is retained in-herd and is the dam of Lot 11 in this sale, plus her 2022 daughter is one of our top breds this year. Her only son to date was a feature Impact bull who sold to a good repeat customer of ours two years ago. I saw that bull this spring and he looks outstanding. If you trace the cow family back four generations, you’ll find the 76T and 321N cows who were two of our best cows ever to walk here. We flushed both of those cows over the years. The fertility and maternal strength backing 48L is very strong. I would count on this one turning into a reliable cow that gets the job done every year.

Mandate is the $160,000 phenom from the final R Plus Simmentals Bull Sale in 2022. In his first year of production, he has impressed with his breeding capabilities and lived up to our high expectations. He has calved as easily as expected; consistently shortening gestation, making BW smaller and adding an impressive amount of vigour to his newborn calves. We have calved Mandate successfully on heifers and were so pleased with the results, that we used him on heifers again this spring. His EPDs for CE and BW have jumped ahead by 20% already with his first calf crop being entered in the CSA database. I expect his calving numbers to continue to climb over time. Mandate has also lived up to my expectation for him to sire curve bending growth in his calves, add length of body and improve foot quality as well. It is still early with his first calves, but early indicators of their foot size and structure looks very promising. We have some tremendous replacement heifers in our keeper pen and we encourage visitors to come take a good look at them. His sons are demonstrating extra testicular development, are masculine, replicate his attractive skull and presence, and very much carry his stamp. We have received so much positive feedback on the Mandate calves that are scattered across the country from the R Plus Dispersal and in the herds of our syndicate partners. Mandate is breeding true and proving his value early in production, cementing himself as one of the most interesting and predictable outcross sire options in some time!
*IMPORTANT: Since Mandate is currently being held as an exclusive sire in Canada, your purchase of his semen will require you to agree to respect and abide by the terms of exclusivity set forth by Rainbow River Simmentals. Before the semen is released to the buyer, he/she must agree in writing to not share, give away, sell, split a pack or otherwise transfer the semen to any other person. The semen is to be utilized by the buyer in their own herd only and cannot be used to split a flush with another person(s), or used in joint ownership heifers/ cows/ donors unless the resulting embryos/ natural progeny remain, in their entirety, in the sole possession of the buyer. Contact Jennilee with any questions or for clarification. You are investing in an exclusive sire and we want to ensure that everyone involved gets the best return on their investment!

STORAGE LOCATION: Embryo Genetics Ltd., MB




We purchased Sabrina for $25,000 as a 7 year old cow and proven donor. Herself and her daughters were standouts in the Meadow Acres dispersal, and her son, Patriot, that was owned by Rust Mountain View Ranch, is an impressive individual. When we purchased Sabrina, our intentions were to keep her embryos exclusive to our program. However, when she kicks out 30 freezable embryos in one flush, we can afford to part with some! As I said, our plan is to keep Sabrina’s embryo inventory exclusive, so if you like what Sabrina has to offer, this may be your only chance to snag some embryos. *Note: These embryos were produced after the 2023 breeding season and we will not be implanting any until 2024, therefore the buyer will join us in being at the forefront of the first calf crop!

We have a full sib to these embryos in our bull pen. He has a blaze face and is going to be a very interesting heifer-safe prospect in our upcoming bull sale on March 8, 2024. We also implanted several of these embryos this spring with the majority of them getting implanted into heifers. Also remember that Mandate is being held very exclusive. I will be implanting the rest of these embryos in 2024 so this is your only chance to acquire some Mandate’s out of Sabrina!

When a breeder steps up and invests $26,000 into a heifer calf that isn’t even a year old by sale day, you can either call them crazy, or confident! I prefer the latter, of course, because that’s exactly how I felt the day I bought Marlee for that price tag. Kirsten Fornwald spoke so highly of this heifer prior to their dispersal and everything was lined up on her in every other way. Her dam, her cow family, her sire, her colour, her numbers, her look, her performance, her disposition. Everything. Man, it’s nice when a plan comes together because I have been in the position a few times over the years where investments don’t always work out as expected. Marlee has done nothing but impress though and we are very excited for her future here. We focused on turning her into a cow in her first year, so we bred her early then sent her for a couple rounds of IVF that summer. Last year we offered up a pack of her IVF embryos in our Online Production Sale and they fetched $1700/ embryo selling to the only people who know her breeding potential as well as I do - DK Land & Cattle, her previous owners! In her first year of production Marlee cranked out the best Impact heifer that has ever graced our program, and that’s singing high praise because anyone who knows me knows how much I love my Impact females! Marlee’s heifer achieved a 712 lbs actual WW (696 lbs adj WW) and a WW ratio of 105. Ranking her 7th out of 25 contemporaries and by golly, she looks just as impressive as her numbers! Marlee’s photo was taken just days before weaning off that calf, in her working clothes, on pasture. I don’t know about you, but I’d take a pasture full of two year olds like Marlee any day. She stands squarely on big, perfect feet, is very correct in her leg structure and is a doll to work with. Her maternal instinct at calving was also very impressive to watch. She has definitely earned her spot in our donor pen this fall and with her about to start into our fall flushing schedule, we feel that we can part with these embryos from this exciting mating with the very popular Stratton! I’m betting on stout, soft made, dark cherry red, blaze faced babies from these embryos. We all know how valuable dark red, blazed faced cattle are these days! I think these embryos will generate a nice ROI for the winning bidders!

HOMO POLLED | RED
3 conventional embryos (CAN 🇨🇦 qualified) - Tycoon x Sage 11H
STORAGE LOCATION: Currently stored on farm. Will be moved to Bow Valley Genetics, SK during Agribition




If a breeder doesn’t shake their head and wonder why the heck they’re parting with something when they create a sale offering, then they haven’t dug deep enough. I have saved a very special lot for last, and I am questioning my sanity as I try to put my thoughts into this footnote. Sage 11H is the most intriguing, impressive, and flat out exciting female that I have ever bred. She has been special from the moment she was born and has never had a bad day in her life. When Matt Criddle worked for BMS, he very quickly found this heifer when she was a calf and followed her development closely. Matt asked if I would sell her in Friday Night Lights, but my answer was a hard no. I had big plans to build on this beauty! Sage is a big, powerful female and is so structurally ideal that she rivals, and is even better than, many of the most expensive females I have invested in over the years. She is a fourth generation donor being a granddaughter of the great WFL Red Sage 506C. Her dam, Rainbow River Sage 37F who is a full sister to Betts, has been cutting a very wide swath through our program in short order, earning her badge as a donor as well. We have some very impressive ET progeny out of 37F and WTL, and we cannot wait to showcase the bulls from that flush in March. I also have three very good daughters in herd, two by WTL and one by Can-Am, in addition to Sage 11H. What’s more, 37F’s natural heifer was our #1 selection to feature a top Mandate daughter in the Keystone Konnection Sale coming up on December 5. The breeding potential backing Sage 11H is very strong and I invite you to come view Sage 11H, as well as 37F and all of her siblings, in the flesh. 11H is one that I’m very proud of and I truly believe that she is going to have an enormous future ahead! I have 10 ET calves on the way from 11H for 2024, some of which are these Tycoon embryos, plus Sage is also bred up early to WTL. I can hardly wait for her calves to hit the ground! I have never planned on sharing Sage’s embryos, but I really wanted to offer 20 lots in this sale and I felt that it was time to showcase my greatest breeding accomplishment to date. Sage is a very prolific donor as she produces big numbers with every flush we’ve done. This flush in particular generated 19 number one embryos! However, I am going to be keeping these genetics very close at hand so these are the only embryos I will sell from this flush. Tycoon is dead and gone with semen nearly impossible to find. I really shouldn’t be parting with any Tycoon embryos because my semen inventory from him is nearly depleted also. However, here I am offering up my best!
