Every bull will sell with 100% possession and natural service rights going to the buyer of said bull. The retained breeding rights or semen rights will only be important if given bull is taken for semen collection and ultimately semen is marketed from noted bull. In this case the retained ownership will have the rights to the proportionate share of semen and marketing rights. Each party will pay their proportionate share of collection and marketing costs. Genetic Conditions Relative to genetic disorders, every animal in this sale has a notation in their respective data box as either “Free” or noted with a carrier condition prefix (DDC). Those noted as “Free” are either tested free or consid- ered free due to their free sires and dams. Those noted with a “C” in their genetic prefix are carriers only of a non-lethal recessive condition. Those noted with “PC” in their genetic prefix are potential carriers and waiting for completion of DNA testing. If original owner of bull would like semen and the buyer prefers not to exercise collection and marketing rights then the initial owner of bull can make arrangements for pick up (and return) of bull for semen collection at a time convenient to the new owner of bull and when bull is not being used for natural service breeding.
