Simmental and SimAngus Bulls
Bulls will be semen checked and yearling weights will be
available sale day. Bulls have been fed a predominately
roughage ration that is no more than 1% of their body weight
in concentrates, anticipating a 3 lb. average daily gain.
Projected yearling weights will be available sale day!
Because of the late arrival of some of the bulls, we felt
data would be more accurate if taken closer to sale date for
a longer feeding period. We are retaining 50% semen interest
on all bulls unless other terms are agreed upon prior to the
sale. Commercial bull buyers would only be affected by this
if their purchase would produce calves that would benefit
the seedstock industry. Herd bull prospects will be DNA and
coat color evaluated. Please call for results.
Bulls selling for more than $2000 can be left until May 1 at
no charge or receive a $100 discount for sale day pickup and
will be warranteed for the first year of service. Bulls
selling for less than $2000 will be charged $2.50 per day
until pickup or receive a $50 discount for sale day pickup
and will no longer be guaranteed . Volume discount: 2 Bulls
2% of total, 3 Bulls 3% of total, 4 Bulls 4% of total, 5 or
more Bulls 5% of total. Discount only applies to purchases
greater than $2500/Bull.
Terms and Conditions:
All cattle sell under the terms and conditions of the
American Simmental Association.
Payment:
My banker agreed to stay out of the cattle business if I
would stay out of the banking business so payment is
expected before cattle will load out.
Delivery:
We will guarantee no more than $200 delivery on purchases
providing delivery accommodations are arranged by Springer
Simmentals! Out of state buyers please contact me prior to
the sale.
Health:
Harmony Vet Clinic: Dr. Lynn Aggen has performed all
pregnancy testing prior to the sale. All bulls and open
females have been vaccinated twice with Bovishield, Vision 7
with Lepto, Vibrio and poured in September, November and
again January 7th.
Special Notes: CUP data, scrotal measurements and homo black
and homo polled data will be available three weeks prior to
the sale. Please call for further information.
