FERTILITY All bulls selling have passed a breeding soundness examination performed by Dr. Adam Lukert from St. Mary’s Veterinary Clinic within the 45 days of sale. They have also been tested negative for trichinosis within 30 days of the sale. BREEDING GUARANTEE Bulls selling are guaranteed for 90 days from first turnout against breeding injury. If a replacement bull is available, he will be provided. If a replacement bull is not available, credit will be given in a future NextGen Cattle Company sale. Credit will be the purchase price less salvage value of the injured bull to be used for the purchase of one replacement bull. Please notify us as soon as possible should injury occur and prior to the injured bull being sold for salvage. This is not a mortality insurance policy. Any deviations from the above policy will be worked out between the buyer and NextGen Cattle Company. TERMS & CONDITIONS Bulls and females sell under the listed sale terms and conditions published on the NextGen Cattle Company website (www.nextgencattle.com) on the sales page. After 60 days, all unpaid invoices will be subject to an interest charge up to 18% APR. GENETIC MERIT RATING SYSTEM Each animal in the catalog is rated on a 1-5 scale with 5 being the highest in six categories: Phenotype, Calving, Weaning, Maternal, Terminal and Docility. The following is a general description. PHENOTYPE: Determined by the average phenotypic score given by our five graders when sorting bulls for the sale. CALVING: A rating of calving ease within their respective breeds. 5 stars would be suitable candidates to use on heifers. WEANING: Real dollars for those that sell at weaning influenced by both genomic EPDs and actual performance. MATERNAL: A measure of a bull’s daughters to be efficient, fertile and have longevity. TERMINAL: A measure of post-weaning gain, feedlot performance and carcass quality.
