GUARANTEE All heifers are guaranteed bred and are guaranteed to remain pregnant for 30 days from the sale date. Calving dates are approximate. Females can range two weeks or more around a projected calving date even if they were A.I. bred on the same day. The consignor will refund the purchase price or replace the heifer with one of similar value if a heifer is found to be open within 30 days of the sale by a veterinarian. All guarantees are made by the consignor and not the University of Missouri Extension or other organizations or individuals involved in the sale. In case the buyer and seller are unable to reach an agreement over a heifer, an arbitration committee can be asked to hear both sides and render a decision. TAGS A special tag that carries the Show-Me-Select TM trademark and name identifies all heifers in the sale. This tag signifies that the heifers have met all the requirements of the Missouri Show-Me-Select TM replacement heifer program. Some heifers will carry a white Show-Me-Select tag. This identifies them as Tier Two heifers. Note a complete description of them in the requirements section of this catalog. The Show-Me-Plus Heifer TM designation is for heifers tested with a genomic prediction panel approved by University of Missouri Extension. No special tags used at this time.
