Western States Beefmaster
Breeders Association
On behalf of Western States Beefmaster Breeders Association, I would like to invite you to the Third
Annual Beefmaster Bull and Female Sale. WSBBA is a satellite of the national Beefmaster registry,
Beefmaster Breeders United. Our membership covers the 11 western states.
The cattle that have been consigned to this sale represent the genetics of a number of the WSBBA
members, and are offered here to both the purebred producer as well as the backbone of our industry,
the commercial cattleman.
Beefmasters used in a crossbreeding program will benefit commercial producers through higher
weight gains, reduction of the incidence of Pink Eye, more heat tolerance, more feed efficiency and
better dispositions. In Beefmaster-cross females retained as replacements, there will be better fertility and milk production. All of these benefits were derived through the development of the breed by
adhering to the Six Essentials – Weight, Conformation, Milk Production, Fertility, Hardiness, and
Disposition, all highly important economic traits.
For more information about Beefmasters, visit Beefmaster Breeders United online at
www.beefmasters.org.
Also, for more information about Western States Beefmaster Breeders Association and a directory
of WSBBA members visit us online at www.wsbba.org.
We appreciate your interest in Beefmaster cattle and look forward to seeing you in Dinuba for this,
our third annual sale.
Sincerely,
John Pierson
WSBBA President

Voluntary Classification Guidelines:
Cattle are visually inspected by a BBU field representative for desirable traits. Each animal is classified according to BBU's Standards of Excellence.
All animals (male and female) age 8 months and up may be presented for “U” classification. All
animals at least 13 months of age may be presented for number scores on conformation and underline,
with the stipulation that if the animal is seen later in a BBU Approved or Sanctioned Sale it is subject to
reclassification by the BBU field service representative at the sale (at no charge).
Any bull or female in the "U" category will be so designated on the BBU Certificate of Breeding
along with the date and initials of the BBU field representative. To be presented for a "U" classification,
males and females must be a minimum of 8 months with no upper age limit. Classification of Certified
Beefmaster cattle is $5.00 per head or $350.00 per stop, whichever is greater.
Any bull or female in the "X" category will be removed from the registry by BBU's office and so
noted by correspondence to the member. BBU will not charge the member a classification fee for an "X" animal.
Bulls must have a yearling scrotal measurement (taken between 320-410 days of age) of at least 30 cm
to meet the "U" qualification. A measurement of 34 cm is the objective.
All cattle presented for classification must have permanent identification and must be certified or an
application for certification must be presented to the field representative.
To receive a number score all animals must have a “U” classification.

2. BIDDING DISPUTE: The Auctioneer in charge will settle any dispute as to bids, and his decision on such matters shall be final.
3. TERMS: Terms of the sale are cash due upon sale, unless prior credit arrangements for the sale have been agreed upon in writing between the Buyer and Seller, in which event, the terms of the written credit arrangement between the Buyer and Seller for the sale shall
prevail. The failure of a member buyer to pay the appropriate party the sale amounts when due may constitute a cause for exclusion from
BBU pursuant to Article I, section 9 of the By Laws of BBU.
4. PURCHASER’S RISK: Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as the auctioneer declares it sold.
5. CERTIFICATE OF BREEDING AND/OR TRANSFERS: All required paperwork will be transferred to the buyer at the seller’s expense, upon settlement.
6. HEALTH: All animals will have appropriate certificates of veterinary inspection for travel to the sale site and will to the best of the
seller’s knowledge be eligible for interstate shipment, however, buyers need to be aware of their individual resident state’s requirements
for shipment of cattle. Any and all testing will have been completed within thirty (30) days of the sale date.
7. ANNOUNCEMENTS: Any changes in information of any kind will be announced from the auction box and such announcements shall
take precedence.
8. BREEDING GUARANTEES:
a) FEMALES: OPEN AND/OR EXPOSED FEMALES: Females younger than twenty-four (24) months of age can be sold as open. Open
females are so guaranteed. Any female is considered a breeder if she is certified to be pregnant by a licensed veterinarian at the time of sale
and/or has a nursing calf at side. Cows (including donor cows) with calves at side six (6) months or older must be certified to be pregnant
by a licensed veterinarian.
b) SAFE IN CALF FEMALES have been examined by a competent veterinarian and are so guaranteed.
c) BULLS: Bulls eighteen (18) months or older are guaranteed to have passed a Bull Breeding Soundness Evaluation (BSE) and to have

Breeding Soundness Evaluation (BSE) must be reported on a fully completed official form and attached to the health papers required for
the sale.
9. DISCLOSURE OF PRIOR PROCEDURES: If known to the seller, there must be a disclosure in the current sale catalog or from the box
of any circumcision or other surgical alteration of any underline of any male or female and of any single egg or super-ovulation flush of
any female sold in a BBU Approved Sale.
10. INHERITED DEFORMITIES GUARANTEE: All bred females are guaranteed not to produce a calf with an inherited deformity occurring in Bovine for a period of nine months following date of sale.
11. REPRESENTATIONS AND GUARANTEES: All representations and guarantees, whether set forth in sale catalogs, these Terms and
Conditions of Sale or otherwise, are solely those of seller and are not those of BBU. Except for the assurances set forth in the Approved
Sales Agreement that an animal does not exhibit a genetic defect and that its registry information is consistent with the information in
BBU’s records, BBU makes no representations, warranties, guaranties or assurances whatsoever.
12. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS: The above terms and conditions of sale shall constitute a contract between buyer and seller of each
animal and shall be equally binding upon both. Each sale or resale of an animal constitutes a separate transaction. Neither BBU, the sale
manager, nor any other person connected with the management of the sales assumes any liability, legal or otherwise, for any subsequent
resale of an animal.
13. REMEDIES :
a) OPEN AND/OR EXPOSED FEMALES are guaranteed to be breeders by twenty-four (24) months of age except in cases of animals
purchased and then fitted for show or administered any super ovulation drug. In cases of animals fitted for show or administered any super
ovulation drug after purchase, the breeding guarantees, if any, shall be such as agreed upon between buyer and seller. All claims for a refund must be made in writing to the seller within six (6) months after the animal reaches twenty-four (24) months of age. Open females are
so guaranteed. If within sixty (60) days after the sale date, a female sold as “open” proves to be with calf, the buyer may return the female
to the farm of the seller, provided the female is in good condition and in compliance with the health requirements of the seller’s state, and
receive refund of the full purchase price. The acceptance of the refund of the full purchase price shall in any case be deemed full satisfaction and settlement of the matter. The buyer’s failure to notify the seller within sixty (60) days from the date of sale and to make the election as hereinabove provided shall relieve and absolve the seller of any duty, obligation or liability to the buyer regarding the purchase of
said female. The seller and buyer shall bear equally all reasonable and necessary transportation expenses that are incurred in returning the
animal to seller.
5
b) SAFE IN CALF FEMALES are guaranteed to have been examined by a licensed veterinarian. If within thirty (30) days after sale date, a
female sold as “safe in calf” proves not to be in calf, the buyer may immediately request that the female receive service from the bull previously used, if available, or return the female to the farm of the seller, provided the female is in good condition and in compliance with the
health requirements of the seller’s state, for a refund of the full purchase price. The acceptance of the refund of the full purchase price shall
in any case be deemed full satisfaction and settlement of the matter. The buyer’s failure to notify the seller within thirty (30) days from the
sale date and to make the election as hereinabove provided shall relieve and absolve to the seller of any duty, obligation or liability to the
buyer regarding the purchase of said female. The seller and buyer shall bear equally all reasonable and necessary transportation expenses
that are incurred in returning the animal to seller.
c) FLUSHES AND TIME REQUIREMENTS: A flush consists of all viable embryos, transferred or frozen, received from a female as the
result of the administration of any super ovulation drug. The sale of a flush or resulting pregnancies must specify in the sale catalog the
number of pregnancies guaranteed and the disposition of any other pregnancies resulting from the flush, the disposition of any frozen embryos resulting from the flush and any additional charge for the recipient cows. The maximum time for the delivery of the guaranteed results must be specified along with a payment schedule. Non-delivery or only partial delivery by the specified time by the seller will result
in a pro-rata refund of all monies paid by the buyer for such flush or pregnancies not delivered.
d) PREGNANCY AND/OR PREGNANT RECIPIENT COW: Pregnancy and/or pregnant recipient cow is a cow of any breed that is carrying a pregnancy (guaranteed to have been examined by a licensed veterinarian as safe in calf) as the result of a flush as so stated on the
certification of embryo transplant form. Such pregnancy and/or pregnant recipient cow is guaranteed to be carrying the embryo pregnancy
so stated and if found not safe in calf by a licensed veterinarian within thirty (30) days of delivery of the recipient cow to the buyer, the
buyer will have the same remedies as set forth in clause b) for the safe in calf females. The amount bid by the buyer for the individual
pregnancy and/or pregnant recipient cow offered at a sale will be inclusive of the recipient cow. A pregnancy and/or pregnant recipient
cow should be available at the sale site; however, if not available it must be delivered to the buyer, at the seller’s expense, within thirty
(30) days of the sale with the necessary health papers sufficient for delivery to the buyer.
e) CLONES: Only BBU replication cell-cloned animals shall be eligible for registration and eligible to sell in BBU Voluntary Approved
Sales. Genetically modified animals shall not be eligible for registration and cannot sell in BBU Approved Sales. Cloned animals shall be
guaranteed by the seller to be breeders under the same terms of the agreement for females and bulls. Any additional guarantees with respect to clones shall be by separate agreement between buyer and seller.
f) BULLS: If within one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of sale, the bull has failed to pass a Breeding Soundness Evaluation
(“BSE”) certified by a licensed veterinarian, buyer must send seller written notification of the failure of the test within one-hundred and
twenty (120) days from the date of sale and include the BSE test results. Within sixty (60) days after sellers notification of the failed BSE
test, buyer and seller shall identify a mutually agreeable licensed veterinarian or technician certified by a licensed veterinarian to perform
another BSE on the bull at the buyer’s expense. The results of the test shall be deemed final and conclusive of this matter and binding on
buyer and seller. If, in the opinion of said veterinarian or technician, the bull is unable to pass a BSE and be confirmed a satisfactory potential breeder, he shall so certify in writing to the seller and the buyer which shall include the official form used by the Society of Theriogeniology or the official BBU Breeding Soundness Evaluation form. In such event the buyer may return the bull to the farm of seller, provided
the bull is in good condition and in compliance with the health requirements of the seller’s state, for a refund of the full purchase price. The
acceptance of the refund of the full purchase price shall in any case be deemed full satisfaction and settlement of the matter. The seller and
buyer shall bear equally all reasonable and necessary transportation expenses that are incurred in returning the animal to seller. A listing of
industry standards for Scrotal Circumferences for bulls at various ages will be printed in the sale catalog. Satellites, Marketing Groups, or
