In the event a customer has any problem in with a bull (health, injury or death) prior to or during the bulls first breeding season the customer should immediately contact Lassle Ranch Simmentals to report a claim. A veterinarian’s statement of the problem will be required and Lassle Ranch reserves the right to have the bull returned if deemed necessary. A replacement bull of mutually agreed upon quality will be provided if Lassle Ranch has one available.

No one can guarantee that every animal will perform perfectly, but at Lassle Ranch Simmentals we can guarantee that we will make things right if they do not. Testicle Measurements The scrotal circumference of each bull was tape-measured the week before Christmas while clipping the bulls. The scrotal measurement were adjusted to yearling and sometimes will vary one way or another as actual yearlings. We guarantee our bulls 100% for fertility – unless damage is induced at your ranch – and then it’s out of our control. Recommendations for Scrotal Circumference

Suggested Guidelines for using Yearling Bulls We are firm believers in the use of yearling bulls and feel it is one of the best years of their lives. It is a time when they are easy to manage and their only concern is breeding cows. We have found that yearling bulls that are managed carefully during the second year of their lives, not only do well, but they will perform better over time. Below are some suggested guidelines for the care of yearling bulls. • Upon deliver to your ranch, keep yearling bulls separate from older bulls and feed them a maintenance ration of 5-8 lbs per head of grain and free choice hay. Reduce the amount of grain fed gradually, so that bulls are on straight hay or grass 2-4 weeks prior to the breeding season. • Where possible try to limit the bulls and put them in separate pastures with plenty of good quality grass. It is best to achieve the growth and strength to compete with older bulls for feed and space. • You will see the benefit of a little added cost and care of feeding a yearling bull by probably two or three more years of service from a well managed and healthy bull.
