8Important Notice to VendorsARRIVAL OF STOCK: As per timetable of events (page 7).PRE-SALE INSPECTION: All animals entered for the sale must be available for inspection in the salepremises by a panel of inspectors, including a qualified Veterinary Officer. The Inspectors will haveregard to general health and genetic defects, particularly mouth, teeth, eyes, testicles, locomotion andgeneral conformation. Any animal discovered with a genetic fault, disease, disorder or is consideredby the panel to be not in a proper and healthy condition to be presented as representing a goodspecimen of the breed will be REJECTED and the Entry Fee forfeit. Animals will be placed in a crushfor this inspection - as required by the inspectors. No pedigree or grade registered stock, enteredfor 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 mustfrom the beginning speak ONLY to the Chief Inspector. He will then ask for a deposit of £20 from theexhibitor. The appeal committee will then carry out their own inspection of the animal and their decisionwill be final. The deposit will only be returned if the appeal is successful.RECORD WEIGHTS & HEIGHTS: All bulls will be weighed and measured by an official as an integral part ofthe 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 mustbe led with a nose rope. Every animal entered for the sale must be provided with a serviceable halter, whichshall become the property of the Purchaser.UK TAGS/TATTOO MARKS - All cattle entered for the Sale will have their UK Tags/Tattoo marks examinedas an integral part of the pre sale inspection procedure. Any marks found to have faulty, incorrect or illegiblemarks will be REJECTED from the Sale. Vendors are therefore urged, in their own best interests, to examinethe UK Tags/Tattoo marks of Sale cattle before the animal(s) leave their farm, so that faulty marks can berecitified in accordance with the required Society procedures.CONDITIONS OF SALEThe sale will be held subject to the Auction Rules and Conditions of Sale drawn up by the British Blue CattleSociety:“No member shall withdraw from sale any animal catalogued for sale. Any member who, having entered ananimal for sale under these rules, fails to bring that animal to that sale, must produce, either at the sale or bypost to reach the Registered office of the Society within 7 days of the sale, a veterinary surgeon’s certificateaccounting for such absence on grounds of health. Failure to produce such a certificate within the timestipulated will automatically render the member liable to a summary fine of £50 (imposed by the Counciland subject to variation from time to time) in respect of each animal not brought forward. In addition, allentry fees will be forfeited, and no further pedigree registrations or entries for other sales will be acceptedfrom 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 theSale. Such guarantee, however, does not extend to the animals sold for export, to which special conditionsapply.UPSET PRICES - There will be an “upset” price of 1500gns on each bull presented for sale - i.e. if no openingbid 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 pregnantrecipient cows or heifers will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission 5% will be charged by theAuctioneers on all sale.RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals, or to fix aReserve Price, which must be notified to the Auctioneers in writing before or at the time their animal entersthe Sale Ring.

It also sets out criteria for the Society’s Volunteer Inspectors to work to, which in turn, facilitates uniformity across allSociety sales. Apart from meeting the minimum standards stated below, pedigree cattle should also conform to the Society’s Bylaws, number1.1 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. Coatcolour 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 requireno tattoo, on condition that they have been double tagged, as per Ministry regulations2. Animals must conform to minimum heights and weights specified by the Society’s Council. See over for the detailed charts3. Teeth and jaws should be correct in terms of position and bone structure. A degree of latitude shall be allowed where an animal is cuttingteeth. The Chief Inspectors decision is final, with regard to acceptable jaw and teeth configurations.4. The testicles and sheath shall be checked for correctness. Testicles should be of good conformation and consistency, with the epididymisshowing definition. The minimum circumference of the scrotum between 10 and 24 months is shown overleaf. Animals over 24 monthsmust have a minimum scrotal circumference of 32cm.5. All animals must be in good, healthy condition and free from signs of infectious diseases, such as Viral Warts, Live Ring Worm etc. (AVeterinary 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 beacceptable for practical use and not be detrimental to the breed’s reputation. Bulls with an exceptional conformation will be allowed adegree of latitude with regard to mobilityThe Council of the British Blue Cattle Society would urge all potential vendors to adhere strictly to these notes whenentering 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 ofinspection. 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 saleSAFETYA Vendor must not enter for sale, any animal with a potentially dangerous temperament. The Society’s Inspectors havethe 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 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 decisionis intended as a purchasers guide only.

14NOTICE TO PURCHASERSThe objective of the Official Society Inspection is primarily in place to raise the breed standardand the inspection panel’s decision is intended as a purchasers guide only. Prospectivepurchasers should satisfy themselves as to the suitability of an animal for their particularrequirements. By bidding for an animal the intended purchaser accepts the Societies andAuctioneers conditions of sale, the animal being theirs at the fall of the hammer.The British Blue Cattle SocietyGuide to looking after your new BullIt is often, quite correctly said, that the bull is half the herd. This should mean that he is treated as being asimportant as all the other stock put together. What often happens, in practice, is that he is lucky if he is givenhalf the care and attention that others receive. This is in spite of being possibly, the most expensive singleanimal in the herd.The fi rst thing to do, when buying, or hiring a new bull, is to plan ahead. Do not rush out to fi nd a bull today,because you want to use him tomorrow. First, be sure about what kind of bull you want and, how many youneed and give yourself time to get the right ones. How many you need, depends, not just on the size of theherd but also on the breeding season. It is the number of cows per day, when working, which matters, notthe total number of cows.Another reason for planning ahead is to allow time for the bull to settle in. Leaving home for a young bullis just as big a wrench, as it is for your children when they go to ‘big school’, or leave home. Some bulls areaffected by the stress of travel, showing and the sale ring. Stress can disrupt the reproductive system. Somebulls will have poor semen quality for up to two months, following transport. By the time poor results arenoticed and a vet, like myself, gets around to looking at the semen, the situation is back to normal. The wisefarmer 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 asreproduction goes – size does matter but it is the testicles, rather than any other anatomical feature. Scrotalcircumference 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 overtaxthem when young.Some bulls will be 18 months old, or more, before beginning to produce decent semen. British Blue bullsbeing warranted from 20 months. Give your bull a gentle introduction to the herd. Just give a small group offemales at fi rst, (preferably heifers, for a young bull). Young Blues are often unbalanced by their large backends,and, if they cannot get a good grip on the cow, will do an involuntary backward somersault, at thecritical moment. Present a young ‘Blue’ with a large Holstein and you are in “It’s a business doing pleasurewith you” territory!These are simply matters of common sense; a young bull will not have the capacity, skill, or psychologicalstrength 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 problemswith service and, that his libido is good. Check the females regularly for pregnancy. If there is a problem youneed to know quickly.Finally, do not forget his psychological development. Few bulls are natural born killers. Those that turn nastyare 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 throughhandling facilities regularly, for no reason other than to give him a reward. He should have comfortablequarters 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!By kind permission of The Blue Cattle Society of Ireland


15UNDERSTANDING BREEDPLANOnly British Blue GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can bevalidly compared between herds.ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.ACCURACYAn accuracy value is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount ofinformation that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy thelower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for thatanimal or it's relatives. Accuracy below 75% should be considered low.CALVING EASECalving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation lengthinformation. 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 haveeasier calving.BIRTH AND FERTILITYGL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicateshorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth afterbirth.BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted fordam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of adifficult 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 andquantity. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negativecorrelation with age of puberty in female progeny.GROWTHMILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, thisEBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of theircalves.200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best singleestimate 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 301and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best singleestimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best singleestimate 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 at5 years of age. Smaller, or more moderate EBVs are generally more favourable.


16CARCASECWT: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at astandard age of 650 days.EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm 2 ) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kgdressed 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 300kgdressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as apercentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yieldfor the 300kg carcase size.IMF%: Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in thepercentage of intra-muscular fat at the 12/13 th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on markettargets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.INDEXESAn index combines the EBVs with economic information (costs and returns) for specificmarket and production systems to rank animals based on relative profit values. Note that thedifferent types of animals can give similar profit values, so you should also consider both theindex and the component EBVs when selecting animals for your production system.BBB Profitability Index (£’s) - Estimates the genetic differences between animals in netprofitability per cow mated for an example commercial herd targeting the EU market with nomarbling requirement. All progeny are assumed to be marketed at around 550-580 kg liveweight (280-320 kg carcase weight) at approximately 19 months of age.Bulls with a higher BBB Carcase Yield Index will have a greater genetic potential to sireheavier finished progeny. As there are no maternal traits included in the calculation of the BBCarcase Yield Index, bulls with a high Index will not necessarily be suitable for breedingheifer replacements.BBB Pedigree Breeding Index (£’s) - This index (£ per cow joined) targets herds that breedtheir own replacement cows and bulls and slaughter progeny from large framed cows. Steerprogeny are slaughter at around 16 months of age at 620 kg live weight (360 kg carcaseweight). 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 cowmated 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 thematernal and fertility traits of the animal. Therefore, both direct and daughters calving easeare 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 50 th percentile or better for Calving Ease Direct, 400 DayWeight and Retail Beef Yield % EBVs.The British Blue GROUP BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this SaleCatalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from datasupplied by the breeders.
