Change is inevitable—but progress is a choice. After a decade of sale dates in May, the 𝗢𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 is moving to November.

The introduction of “The Ones That Built the Brand” in 2015 was our first effort to assemble our best, most proven sows and offer them to the public in a live auction setting. What started as a concept has become a model many now follow, and we take pride in knowing it helped shape the business.

Today, Built the Brand serves as our North Star; the guiding light for decisions in our breeding program and ultimately, the way we measure genetic progress.

Over the years, just as this sale has evolved, so too has our industry. In this ever-changing market, adaption isn’t optional - it’s necessary - and we believe a move to the fall will provide more opportunities to position our best females - purebreds and crosses alike - for a broader market.

Even though the dates have changed, we are still steadfast in our commitment to deliver a genetic offering tailored for modern show pig production. is always front of mind and we know they have to work for you.

Mark your calendars for November 5th, 2026 - we look forward to seeing you on The Hill in Taylor, MO!

𝐊𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐈’𝐒 𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒 𝐀𝐂𝐓 | The Exchange Livestock Event | 5.26.26

There aren’t enough words to describe Kelli’s influence on the club calf business; a donor name synonymous with greatness by every measure. There aren’t enough pages in this catalog to fit a fraction of the bulls, donors, show winners and high sellers related to this lot - even if they were thumbnail size. And yet, even after all this time, she’s as relevant as she’s ever been and we’re excited to offer a rare opportunity; both the calf and the situation.

This heifer CALF is out of 751, the same Kelli Clone that generated the $255k Memphis Mafia heifer in the fall of 2024. Props to the crew at Reimann’s for their vision with this mating to Class on Class - and for making it available. Last time we checked, this heifer is ONE OF ONE - the only one bred like this! There is no doubt she can be shown (Chi, Maintainer and more) and surely you can imagine what’s possible after the halter. She’s bred different, she’s built different and you the chance to owner her NOW!

The heifer PREGNANCY gives buyer an opportunity to obtain a replica of the ever-potent RCC1, among others, that share the Maternal Made X Kelli bloodwork.

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗛𝗘𝗜𝗙𝗘𝗥 - Selling 100% ownership and possession of heifer calf - can be weaned as early as July 1. **Retaining 2 successful flushes at the buyers convenience**

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗬 - 1 Heifer Calf Pregnancy | Maternal Made X 752 (Kelli Clone) - due 11/4/26

𝘽𝙀𝘼𝙍 𝘿𝙊𝙒𝙉 | The Exchange Livestock Event | 5.26.26

Hairy Bear X H345 (350-7) X Top Gun (374-8)
371-2 | #522286002

𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝙃𝙀 𝙄𝙎!! 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙃𝙖𝙞𝙧𝙮 𝘽𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙨𝙤𝙣!

Hairy Bear is the Ralston-bred boar that stood at Savage Sires and now makes his home in Arlington, Indiana at Premium Blend. Hairy Bear is sired by H361, a Tripod son that originated here and made his mark while standing at Shaffer Goldrush. Tying into Hairy Bear only made sense and the resulting pig crop was fun to market earlier the year during sale season. Since then, the results have been incredible with multiple gilts and barrows finding the backdrop at jackpot shows all over the Midwest. We’re excited to see where they stand when the dust settles on the summer National shows.

The mother of Bear Down is 350-7; the VERY BEST gilt retained from the first crop of H345 litters and a sister to Three Fifty that made his mark at Upperhand Genetics. 350-7’s mother was 374-8, a direct Top Gun daughter that was shown by the Col family in California. During her show career, she was Champion Hampshire at the American Royal and Champion Hampshire & Reserve Supreme at the NJSA Western Regional.

Most of the Hairy Bear males were destined for the barrow ring, but not this one. He’s destined to impact the breed! His black front leg distinguishes him from the pack and a longtime friend and fellow Hampshire breeder might’ve said it best “He looks like a Hampshire on one side and a Crossbred on the other!” Folks, he’s different!!

No matter which option the buyer chooses, 𝗛𝗛 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝗺:

𝗢𝗪𝗡𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 - Buyer pays 100% of gavel price for possession and 100% of semen sales on the boar. No strings attached.
𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗡𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 - Buyer pays 75% of gavel price, gets possession and 100% of semen sales on the boar. HH retains 25% ownership interest in the boar for semen access (4 doses/week fresh semen and up to 20 straws of frozen semen).
𝗜𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 - Buyer pay 75% of gavel price. Boar stays at HH. Buyer gets 100% of semen sale revenue on boar until boar is paid for, then semen split 60% (buyer) / 40% (HH). HH will have opportunity for in herd use of the boar. Note - semen packages can be sold in HH Showcase the Influence auction on June 23rd for faster return if buyer wishes

359-5 | #687573005
DREAM ON X ALL BY MYSELF (346-8) X LAMBEAU (388-7)

Our Yorkshire effort doesn’t take center stage at HH, but we’re certainly excited about this boar and the related success we’ve had at the backdrop in this breed. His mother was campaigned by the Goldinger family in Missouri when she was named Champion York & Supreme Champion Gilt at the Missouri State Fair and Reserve York & 3rd Overall Gilt at AKSARBEN in 2024. Keeping pace with her notable sister campaigned by the Harrison family in Indiana that was 4th Overall York at the Exposition, 4th Overall York again at the NJSS and Champion York & 4th Overall Gilt at the Indiana State Fair. The Harrison gilt now works for Sanders Showpigs with the title “Princess Peach” - a sow that is generating dollars and wins for their program. This boar was the standout in his litter and his quality is substantiated by his mothers December-born litter sired by He’s Back, a litter that included a boar prospect and a trio of top end barrow prospects grossing $25k in our Feb Online Sale.

307-6 | #457268006
LIMITED ACCESS X WAYMAKER (334-11) X TRAIN STATION (381-8)

The premier sire of our 2025 summer crop of reds was LIMITED ACCESS, the Bedeker-bred boar we owned with Savage Sires. It felt like an opportune to turn one loose that was bred different and yet looked like a compliment to much our sowherd. The focus was never centered on selling babies, but rather an effort to inject new blood with hopes for a set of daughters and a son or two to plug back in. Without a doubt, Limited Access provided all of that and then some. The mother of this 307 is one of five, 334 litter Waymaker sows, and happens to be Max’s Bred & Owned show gilt from the summer of 2024. The 334 Waymaker sows happen to be out of 381-8 (pictured), the beast of a sow most notably known as the mother of 305, the sow we sold in the Exchange. We retained several Limited Access sons from the summer crop and an incredible set of females. In a group of contemporaries the best genetics rarely fail and when they’re bred and built like this one, they tend to rise above the rest - which is exactly what this one did!

LINEBRED BERKSHIRE GREATNESS!

75-1 | #195320001
75-2 | #195320002
TO THE MOON X ROOSTER (79-8) X OTL (379-12)

These littermate boars are sired by the ever popular To The Moon, a boar we turned to in an effort to inject another shot of our matriarch; the OTL 379-12 sow (pictured). If you dig into the pedigree, To the Moon’s mother is a granddaughter of 379-12. The mother of these 75’s, is a Rooster-sired daughter out of 379-12 herself. It’s worth noting that 379-12 was a sister to the Reserve Grand Barrow at the American Royal in 2018 - well before it was cool or even acceptable for a Berkshire barrow to land in the coveted top two spots at a National market hog show. Having 379-12 on top and bottom of the pedigree was the goal and the result is even better than we imagined. Incredible pair of boars that were off limits as babies, retained as herd boars and used exclusively at the farm for our coming crop of litters due in July & August. Our breeding records would suggest that we liked them both equally and we could certainly make a strong case for the selection of either one. Their sisters are also very high quality and collectively as a litter, they truly represent the best of the HH Berkshire program.

Proud to offer CHOICE of this pair; remaining boar will stay at HH. HH reserves the right to remain on the pedigree of the boar that is selected.
