HOTELS: There are many hotels within the area, ranging from four star to excellent Bed and Breakfast accommodation, a list of which may be found on page 4 of the catalogue.

CONDITIONS OF SALE - The British Blue Cattle Society have adopted the Auction Rules and Conditions of Sale drawn up by the N.B.A. The Sale is held subject to these rules and the Auctioneers’ General Conditions of Sale, both available on request. In the event of any discrepancy between the two sets of conditions, the N.B.A. Conditions of Sale shall prevail.

INSURANCE: A representative of H & H Insurance Brokers, will be present at the sale and will be pleased to quote Purchasers for transit and other risks.

METHOD OF SALE: All cattle will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and strictly in catalogue order, unless any alteration is announced by the Auctioneers.

COMMISSIONS: The Auctioneers will dutifully execute commissions to purchase for buyers unable to attend the sale personally, upon receipt of written instructions.

PEDIGREE TRANSFERS: Official Pedigree Transfer will be effected by the Auctioneers and the British Blue Cattle Society as soon as possible after after the Sale. Full Pedigrees will be transferred at a fee of £13.90 (plus VAT) payable by the vendor.

SETTLEMENT AND CLEARANCE OF STOCK: Settlement in full is due immediately at the close of Sale. No animal may leave the Sale Premises without an official ‘Pass Slip’, obtainable only from the Auctioneers upon settlement.

ANIMAL WELFARE: Vendors and Purchasers should note the CODE OF PRACTICE published by the Livestock Auctioneers’ Market Committee for England and Wales IS OPERATIVE IN BORDERWAY MART and that weakly, unhealthy or injured stock will be refused entry by the Auctioneers. Enquiries should be directed through the market office to the Auctioneers’ ANIMAL HEALTH and WELFARE OFFICER (Mr Andrew Templeton).

Important Notice to Vendors ARRIVAL OF STOCK: As per timetable of events (page 6).

PRE-SALE INSPECTION: All animals entered for the sale must be available for inspection in the sale premises by a panel of inspectors, including a qualified Veterinary Officer. The Inspectors will have regard to general health and genetic defects, particularly mouth, teeth, eyes, testicles, locomotion and general conformation. Any animal discovered with a genetic fault, disease, disorder or is considered by the panel to be not in a proper and healthy condition to be presented as representing a good specimen of the breed will be REJECTED and the Entry Fee forfeit. Animals will be placed in a crush for this inspection - as required by the inspectors. No pedigree or grade registered stock, entered for the sale, shall have horns.

Two Society Members will form an appeal committee, one of whom will be a society council member.

The appeal committee will be elected prior to the sale.

If any exhibitor feels the need to formally lodge an appeal against the result of an inspection, they must from the beginning speak ONLY to the Chief Inspector. He will then ask for a deposit of £20 from the exhibitor. The appeal committee will then carry out their own inspection of the animal and their decision will be final. The deposit will only be returned if the appeal is successful.

Please ensure all cattle passport documentation is handed to the Market Sales Office upon arrival. Failure to do so or if for any reason the paperwork does not correspond to the cattle being offered for sale, such animals will not be put forward for the auction.

RECORD WEIGHTS & HEIGHTS: All bulls will be weighed and measured by an official as an integral part of the pre-sale inspection procedure and the data will be displayed above the animals pen.

EVERY ANIMAL entered for the SHOW and SALE must be halter trained and shall have no horns. Bulls must be led with a nose rope. Every animal entered for the sale must be provided with a serviceable halter, which shall become the property of the Purchaser.

UK TAGS/TATTOO MARKS - All cattle entered for the Sale will have their UK Tags/Tattoo marks examined as an integral part of the pre sale inspection procedure. Any marks found to have faulty, incorrect or illegible marks will be REJECTED from the Sale. Vendors are therefore urged, in their own best interests, to examine the UK Tags/Tattoo marks of Sale cattle before the animal(s) leave their farm, so that faulty marks can be recitified in accordance with the required Society procedures.

CONDITIONS OF SALE The sale will be held subject to the Auction Rules and Conditions of Sale drawn up by the British Blue Cattle Society: “No member shall withdraw from sale any animal catalogued for sale. Any member who, having entered an animal for sale under these rules, fails to bring that animal to that sale, must produce, either at the sale or by post to reach the Registered office of the Society within 7 days of the sale, a veterinary surgeon’s certificate accounting for such absence on grounds of health. Failure to produce such a certificate within the time stipulated will automatically render the member liable to a summary fine of £50 (imposed by the Council and subject to variation from time to time) in respect of each animal not brought forward. In addition, all entry fees will be forfeited, and no further pedigree registrations or entries for other sales will be accepted from that member until such fine or fines have been paid.”

The proceeds of sale are guaranteed by the Auctioneers, who will account to Vendors on the day of the Sale.

Such guarantee, however, does not extend to the animals sold for export, to which special conditions apply.

UPSET PRICES - There will be an “upset” price of 1500gns on each bull presented for sale - i.e. if no opening bid of 1500gns is received for any particular lot that lot will be passed out of ring unsold.

ALL REGISTERED CATTLE entered for the Show & Sale (Pedigree or Grade Register), also pregnant recipient cows or heifers will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission 5% will be charged by the Auctioneers on all sale.

RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals, or to fix a Reserve Price, which must be notified to the Auctioneers in writing before or at the time their animal enters the Sale Ring. The auctioneers reserve the right to charge half commission on the amount of the final bid in the case of animals which fail to reach the Vendors reserve price.

All animals will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission of 5% will be charged by the Auctioneers on all sales.

8 No animal may be sold privately before being passed through the Auction Ring and FULL COMMISSION will be charged on the sale of any animal sold by private treaty after the auction. All such transactions MUST BE PASSED THROUGH THE AUCTIONEERS OFFICE. PRIZE MONEY: Will be withheld unless the winners are sold, either by auction or private treaty.

STRAW: A limited amount of bedding straw will be provided by the Auctioneers free of charge. Additional Straw, if required, may be purchased from the Auctioneers.

The British Blue Cattle Society’s Sale levy, amounting to 1% of sale price, will be deducted by the Auctioneers from the proceeds of sale.

INSPECTION CRITERIA AT SOCIETY SPONSORED SALES

JAN 2015

MINIMUM HEIGHT WEIGHT AND SCROTUM DIMENSIONS

This document is published to help members select cattle of the right type and specification, for entry into prestigious sales, held under the auspices of the Society. It also sets out criteria for the Society’s Volunteer Inspectors to work to, which in turn, facilitates uniformity across all Society sales. Apart from meeting the minimum standards stated below, pedigree cattle should also conform to the Society’s Bylaws, number 1.1 of which states: -

“The definition of the breed’s characteristics is as follows: A long, large bodied beef animal with fine bones, double muscle, sloping rump and hidden hips, strong legs and correct mouth.

Coat colour can be black, white, blue, or any combination of these colours that is acceptable to the Council.”

1. The ear tattoo should be clearly legible and the letters and numbers agree with the pedigrees. Animals born after 1 January 1998 require no tattoo, on condition that they have been double tagged, as per Ministry regulations 2. Animals must conform to minimum heights and weights specified by the Society’s Council. See over for the detailed charts

3. Teeth and jaws should be correct in terms of position and bone structure. A degree of latitude shall be allowed where an animal is cutting teeth. The Chief Inspectors decision is final, with regard to acceptable jaw and teeth configurations. Animals with mildly defective teeth or jaws will be marked in yellow and allowed to be sold through the ring, in catalogue order, with an accompanying rostrum announcement; ‘This animal has not fulfilled the Society inspection criteria in respect of jaws and teeth’. Where it is a veterinary decision that the animal be rejected then the animal shall be rejected in the normal way, with no appeal, marked in red and not be permitted to be sold through the ring.

4. The testicles and sheath shall be checked for correctness. Testicles should be of good conformation and consistency, with the epididymis showing definition. The minimum circumference of the scrotum between 10 and 24 months is shown overleaf. Animals over 24 months must have a minimum scrotal circumference of 33cm.

5. All animals must be in good, healthy condition and free from signs of infectious diseases, such as Viral Warts, Live Ring Worm etc. (A Veterinary certificate must accompany animals if previously treated, this treatment must have been carried out at least 14 days prior to the sale), Mange, New Forest Disease, Lice.

6. All animals should be able to walk correctly, on the day of inspection, with no genetic defects. The general mobility of the animal should be acceptable for practical use and not be detrimental to the breed’s reputation. Bulls with an exceptional conformation will be allowed a degree of latitude with regard to mobility

The Council of the British Blue Cattle Society would urge all potential vendors to adhere strictly to these notes when entering cattle into official sales and to seek advice, prior to the sale, if they are uncertain as to whether an animal will pass. This will avoid the disappointment of any of their cattle being rejected by the Inspectors.

Should any cattle be rejected, it is the vendor’s responsibility to ensure that the Lot Number is sprayed in red at the time of inspection. Such cattle may be sold privately from the pens, the sale going through the auctioneer’s books.

Rejected animals may not be sold through the pedigree or commercial ring at a Society sale

SAFETY A Vendor must not enter for sale, any animal with a potentially dangerous temperament. The Society’s Inspectors have the right to demand the immediate removal, from the sale and the sale premises, of any animal, which, in their opinion, demonstrates a temperament, which could be dangerous to the public

  

E



All Animals Must Be Halter Trained No Animal Shall Have Horns It is a statutory requirement that any bull over the age of 12 months, sold through a public auction, shall have a ring in its nose The objective of the Official Society Inspection is primarily in place to raise the breed standard and the inspection panel’s decision is intended as a purchasers guide only. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the suitability of an animal for their particular requirements. By bidding for an animal the intended purchaser accepts the Societies and Auctioneers conditions of sale, the animal being theirs at the fall of the hammer.

3 Month Rule – No calf, whether pedigree or commercial, under the age of 3 months will be accepted for either the show, or sale C:\Data\My Documents A\2014\Sales\Inspection Criteria\Current\Criteria Revised January 2015.doc

65 NOTICE TO PURCHASERS The objective of the Official Society Inspection is primarily in place to raise the breed standard and the inspection panel’s decision is intended as a purchasers guide only. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the suitability of an animal for their particular requirements. By bidding for an animal the intended purchaser accepts the Societies and Auctioneers conditions of sale, the animal being theirs at the fall of the hammer.

The British Blue Cattle Society Guide to looking after your new Bull It is often, quite correctly said, that the bull is half the herd. This should mean that he is treated as being as important as all the other stock put together. What often happens, in practice, is that he is lucky if he is given half the care and attention that others receive. This is in spite of being possibly, the most expensive single animal in the herd.

The first thing to do, when buying, or hiring a new bull, is to plan ahead. Do not rush out to find a bull today, because you want to use him tomorrow. First, be sure about what kind of bull you want and, how many you need and give yourself time to get the right ones. How many you need, depends, not just on the size of the herd but also on the breeding season. It is the number of cows per day, when working, which matters, not the total number of cows.

Another reason for planning ahead is to allow time for the bull to settle in. Leaving home for a young bull is just as big a wrench, as it is for your children when they go to ‘big school’, or leave home. Some bulls are affected by the stress of travel, showing and the sale ring. Stress can disrupt the reproductive system. Some bulls will have poor semen quality for up to two months, following transport. By the time poor results are noticed and a vet, like myself, gets around to looking at the semen, the situation is back to normal. The wise farmer uses this period for quarantine and settling in.

You should, of course, always buy bulls from a reputable source, for both quality and health. As far as reproduction goes – size does matter but it is the testicles, rather than any other anatomical feature. Scrotal circumference is a good ‘rule of thumb’ indicator of a bull’s capacity and you should be looking for 31cm+.

However, remember that bulls are still maturing in this respect, up to 2 years of age, or so, so do not overtax them when young.

Some bulls will be 18 months old, or more, before beginning to produce decent semen. British Blue bulls being warranted from 20 months. Give your bull a gentle introduction to the herd. Just give a small group of females at first, (preferably heifers, for a young bull).Young Blues are often unbalanced by their large back-ends, and, if they cannot get a good grip on the cow, will do an involuntary backward somersault, at the critical moment.

Present a young ‘Blue’ with a large Holstein and you are in “It’s a business doing pleasure with you” territory!

These are simply matters of common sense; a young bull will not have the capacity, skill, or psychological strength to cope with being suddenly turned out with a herd of large, bossy cows.

Always keep a close check on your bull in the early days. Watch him to ensure he is not having problems with service and, that his libido is good. Check the females regularly for pregnancy. If there is a problem you need to know quickly.

Finally, do not forget his psychological development. Few bulls are natural born killers. Those that turn nasty are mostly made so, by lack of attention and by only being handled for unpleasant purposes.

Keeping a tractable, well-behaved bull takes time and effort. He should be handled and put through handling facilities regularly, for no reason other than to give him a reward. He should have comfortable quarters and his feet etc., should be well cared for. Your bull can make a great contribution to your business: Look after him and he will look after you!

EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR CATALOGUES Only British Blue GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can be validly compared between herds.

ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)

The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.

ACCURACY

An accuracy value is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or it's relatives. Accuracy below 75% should be considered low.

CALVING EASE Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny.

DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.

BIRTH AND FERTILITY

GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth.

BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negative correlation with age of puberty in female progeny.

GROWTH

MILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves.

200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages.

400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.

600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

MWT: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age. Smaller, or more moderate EBVs are generally more favourable.

67

CARCASE

CWT: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days.

EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals.

FAT: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.

IMF%: Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intra-muscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase.

Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.

INDEXES An index combines the EBVs with economic information (costs and returns) for

specific market and production systems to rank animals based on relative profit values.

Note that the different types of animals can give similar profit values, so you should also consider both the index and the component EBVs when selecting animals for your production system.

BBB Carcase Profitability Index (£’s) - Estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow mated for an example commercial herd targeting the EU market with no marbling requirement. All progeny are assumed to be marketed at around 550-580 kg live weight (280-320 kg carcase weight) at approximately 19 months of age.

Bulls with a higher BBB Carcase Profitability Index will have a greater genetic potential to sire heavier finished progeny. As there are no maternal traits included in the calculation of the BB Carcase Profitability Index, bulls with a high Index will not necessarily be suitable for breeding heifer replacements.

BBB Pedigree Breeding Index (£’s) - This index (£ per cow joined) targets herds that breed their own replacement cows and bulls and slaughter progeny from large framed cows. Steer progeny are slaughter at around 16 months of age at 620 kg live weight (360 kg carcase weight). The main EBV emphases are on weight, carcase retail beef yield and calving ease. The index estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow mated for a herd targeting the EU market with no marbling requirement. With this in mind, the index also identifies suitable replacement breeding animals by also considering the maternal and fertility traits of the animal. Therefore, both direct and daughters calving ease are included in the index.

This index is only reported for animals with at least moderate accuracy for the key traits. Animals must also be in the top 50th percentile or better for Calving Ease Direct, 400 Day Weight and Retail Beef Yield % EBVs. The British Blue GROUP BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeders. Neither the British Blue Cattle Society nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of this data.

The British Blue Superior Carcase Sire Listing Scheme The eligibility of a bull to qualify for ‘Superior’ status is as follows: 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

Must be fully registered Must come from a herd that is ‘Breedplan’ recorded Must be under 36 months of age at the point of sale Must be DNA tested Must be officially transferred to the new owner Must achieve the following ‘Breedplan’ EBVs: Retail Beef Yield (RBY) – Top 30% 400 Day Wt – Top 30% Eye Muscle Area (EMA) – Top 50% Carcase Profitability Index (CPI) – Top 50% EBLEX suggest that ‘selecting a sire with the right genetics could increase the profitability of a 50 cow suckler herd by £1,500 to £2,000 a year’ or £7,500 to £10,000 or more, over the life of a bull.

The Aim of the Scheme The aim of the scheme is to identify young sires, of high genetic merit, that will provide meaningful financial benefit to commercial purchasers when used in their commercial herds.

The scheme also provides a major incentive for Pedigree Breeders to record their herd and to make available eligible bulls for sale, the interest for such, hopefully being reflected in enhanced demand.

Meat Buyers Seek High EBV Sires The Scheme also gives meat buyers a ‘Point of Reference’ when sourcing quality British Blue X commercial cattle. Increasingly buying and being associated with animals of high genetic merit, is becoming more important. This is definitely so with meat procurement officers sourcing commercial cattle for the main supermarket groups, the genetics within such animals result in higher retail meat yields and higher profit. This has recently been borne out by meetings that your Society has had with those responsible for buying cattle for the major supermarket groups, hence the introduction of this ‘Superior Sire Listing Scheme.’
