Slate Run Black Magic 006 is the cornerstone herd sire of the Slate Run program — a bull whose numbers aren't just elite on paper but proven in the field across 79 progeny in 43 herds. His $B of +237 ranks in the top 1% of the entire Angus breed, paired with a +1.15 ribeye and +.98 marbling that consistently transfer to his calves at above-average ratios. Sired by Byergo Black Magic 3348 out of the proven Slate Run Susan cow family, he combines the explosive carcass merit of the Silveiras Conversion bloodline with the deep maternal foundation Slate Run has built over 60 years. His daughter Slate Run Susan 005 — a 50K genomic-tested Triple Crown performer — is among the highest-ranking cows in the breed, proof that Black Magic 006 doesn't just perform, he transmits. A DDF and Pathfinder qualified sire that improves growth, carcass, and maternal ability simultaneously.
