SAVE SHIPPING AND HANDLING You can save shipping and handling charges by picking up semen that you will need for your fall breeding season at the Chimney Rock Cattle Company Sale. Representatives from either GENEPLUS or Show Me Genetics will be available sale day to fill your orders. We would ask that you keep your orders to goblet increments of 5’s or 10’s so that we can avoid excessive handling of semen. Please contact GENEPLUS at 1-877-436-3877 to place your order prior to the sale to assure we have enough semen on hand and available sale day. SALE ORDER The cattle will not sell in numerical order. We will have a printed sale order prior to the sale. Please note that the registered females, bulls and commercial females will be presented on video. GENETIC CONDITION POLICY Any animals that are confirmed as carriers of a genetic condition such as DD, developmental duplication, will be listed above their pedigrees as DDC. Any animals we are still waiting test results on will be listed DDPC. All other animals have been either confirmed free of known genetic conditions by test results or from pedigree analysis. TRUSTED PERFORMANCE INFORMATION We are extremely dedicated to providing our customers the genetics needed to positively impact their bottom line. As the motto of GENEPLUS states, “A Step Ahead. The Advantage You Can Trust”, we take very seriously the process of collecting phenotypic information and understand its fundamental importance and the role performance information and proper contemporary grouping play in providing the breed association with the most correct and current information possible, which in turn impacts the EPD’s you see directly. We will never compromise the integrity of our data. All of the weights in this offering were taken by a scale, no tapes or windshield guesses. The ultrasound information was collected by David Aborn and processed through a certified CUP Lab prior to submission at IBBA. The industry has changed over time and a process which was once dominated by visual appraisal, then performance testing and contemporary grouping now has the ability to roll all of the information into a scope of genomically enhanced EPD’s. This gives the customer a tremendous edge in the accuracy of EPD’s and the assurance of parentage, thus dramatically improving the selection process for the future of their ranching enterprise. We encourage you to utilize these tools. For your convenience we have listed the current non-parent Brangus average EPD’s in this catalog for reference and comparison on how an individual compares to the average of the breed in any trait. PARTIAL BREEDING GUARANTEE All bulls selling in this sale have passed a thorough and stringent BSE (Breeding Soundness Evaluation) by Dr. Craig Fontenot of Town & Country Animal Clinic. Each bull selling has passed Dr. Craig
Fontenot’s tests and is considered a satisfactory potential breeder. All bulls are guaranteed as breeding bulls through the first breeding season from the date of purchase. Please keep in mind that we expect the bull(s) to be treated with proper animal husbandry and that they are young bulls and require some additional management compared to mature bulls. Proper management should include the following requirements: 12 to 15 month old bulls at time of sale are utilized in a ratio of one bull to 15 cows and 16 to 20 month old bulls one bull to 20 cows. Furthermore, if these requirements are not adhered to or these bulls are placed in service or are housed until time of service with mature bulls then GENEPLUS will not stand behind this breeding guarantee. If a problem does arise please contact GENEPLUS, Cody Gariss 417-262-1257 or Vern Suhn 620-583-3706, as soon as any question occurs as to a bull’s breeding soundness. GENEPLUS will evaluate the problem, consult with a veterinarian if needed and if replacement is required will replace with a bull of equal quality. If a replacement bull is not available GENEPLUS will issue credit in a future GENEPLUS sale. Please contact us before shipping any bulls. Shipping an animal you feel is unsatisfactory before contacting GENEPLUS will void our guarantee. This is a partial breeding guarantee and is not designed to mirror that of an insurance policy to stand death loss, debilitating physical injury, etc. If full morbidity or mortality coverage over and above this GENEPLUS breeding guarantee is desired we encourage you to contact Marcus Creasy, Adams & Creasy Insurance, at (501) 206-2281.
