and parallel with hocks well apart; the fore legs not wide apart and all having good sound feet,
pointing directly forwards. Even locomotion with parallel tracking.
HEALTH DECLARATIONS
Health Declarations
A Health Declaration signed by the Vendor is required for each herd. Information
taken from this Declaration is included under the Index of Vendors below, which
relates to the herd’s health status and to BVD testing of the individual sale animals.
A copy of the Declaration with full information is attached to each Vendor’s group of
pens. Such information includes the herd’s TB testing regime; membership of a
CHeCS scheme if applicable; and testing and vaccination procedures. If a member of
a CHeCS scheme, a certificate of the herd’s testing status will be displayed on the
pen.
Bovine Tuberculosis (TB)
All vendors have signed a Declaration stating that the animals they have entered in
this Sale have been TB tested within 60 days prior to the date of the Sale. All cattle
are from TB4 testing herds.
Bovine Viral Diarrhoea (BVD)
It is an obligatory requirement of the Society that all Sale animals must either be from
a herd that is accredited free of BVD under a CHeCS health scheme, or must have
been tested negative for the BVD antigen. All Sale animals must also be double
vaccinated for BVD prior to the Sale.
Definition of levels within the Johne’s Disease Accreditation
Programme (CHeCS)
Level 1:
Herds must have had three consecutive clear herd tests at annual
intervals. The first of these cannot be sooner than 12 months following the identification
of a Johne’s disease reactor in the herd. Level 1 will be further defined by stating the
year in which the herd achieved level 1 accreditation.
Level 2:
This applies to all herds that have had an initial, or two consecutive, clear
tests, but are yet to achieve level 1 status. The first of these clear tests cannot be
sooner than 12 months following identification of a Johne’s disease reactor in the herd.
Level 3:
These are herds that have reactors identified within the herd, but the
number of reactors must not exceed 3% of the herd eligible for testing in the Johne’s
programme (cattle two years of age and older). In herds with fewer than 33 eligible
animals no more than one of these is a reactor.
Level 4:
These herds have more than 3% of eligible animals identified as reactors,
or in herds with fewer than 33 eligible animals more than one of these is a reactor.
Level 5:
These herds may be carrying out a testing programme, but are not
adhering to the mandatory requirements of the programme.

NOTICE TO EXPORT BUYERS
Animals available for export (subject to legislation currently in force) are denoted as
such under individual lot numbers. Please arrange terms of responsibility with vendor
and auctioneer for care of animals, health requirements, export certification, post
purchase and prior to export before placing your bids.
MYOSTATIN STATUS – a brief explanation
Myostatin has been identified as a muscle-growth controller. When it is “switched off”
or “deleted”, muscle can continue to grow unchecked. This is sometimes referred to
as “double muscling”. This can be seen in both a positive and a negative light,
depending on individual breeding programmes.
All pedigree bulls are now DNA tested to determine their myostatin status, such
information being published in the catalogue. Although it is not obligatory to test
females for myostatin status, some breeders choose to do so and the result is
published where known. The status is expressed as either:
0
1
2
Meaning no copy of the deleted myostatin gene,
Meaning one copy of the deleted myostatin gene (inherited from one or other
parent), or
Meaning two copies of the deleted myostatin gene (inherited from both parents)
Because genes are inherited (one copy from each parent to make a pair), it follows
that the bull will pass on 50% of his genetics to his progeny: so if a bull has one gene
copy (1) there is a 50% chance that the deletion will be passed on; if he has two
copies (2) he will definitely pass on one copy of the deletion; and likewise if there is
no deletion (0) then the progeny will have at least one negative in his typing. The
other 50% of the progeny’s make-up will come from the dam.
The most frequent myostatin variant in the South Devon breed is ‘nt821’. The
implications for an animal having one or two copies of the “nt821” deletion have been
researched by the Roslin Institute. Their findings were that the deletion tends to
improve muscle conformation, reduce fat, and increase hot weight at slaughter. But it
also tends to increase birthweight, decrease calving ease, reduce weight gain, reduce
internal organ and bone size, and reduce eating quality.
A lesser number of animals have tested positive for the ‘F94L’ variant which is
associated with lower birthweight.
These effects are most obvious when the animal has two copies (2), one inherited
from each parent. For further information, please contact the Breed Secretary.
UNDERSTANDING BREEDPLAN PERFORMANCE
RECORDING
ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVs)
The EBV is the best estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for that trait. Each breed’s
EBVs are calculated specifically for that breed, for comparisons within the breed, and
there can be no cross comparison between breeds.
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 its relatives. Low accuracies should be
treated with caution.
Calving Ease Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth
weights and gestation length information. Negative EBVs mean more difficult
calving whilst positive EBVs mean easier calving.
Direct: Direct calving ease indicates how this bull influences the birth of its progeny.
High negatives are bad whilst high positives are good.
Daughters: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces
daughters that have easier calving. This is an important trait if you are breeding your
own replacements. Again, high negatives are bad whilst high positives are good.
BIRTH AND FERTILITY
Gestation Length: Gestation Length EBVs (days) are based on AI records and
observed natural service. Lower (negative) Gestation Length EBVs indicate shorter
gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after
birth.
Birthweight: 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.
Scrotal Size: 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 ie, the
daughters of bulls with larger testicles may come into season at an earlier age.
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. Bulls with high 200 day milk EBVs have more milky daughters.
200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of the 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. The higher the 200 day EBV then the higher the suckled calf or weaning
weight.
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. Higher
400 day EBVs indicate earlier maturing progeny with a greater weight at an
earlier age.
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.
Mature Cow Weight: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic
difference in cow weight at 5 years of age. Moderate or larger EBVs are generally
more favourable.
CARCASE
Carcase Weight: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in
carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days. An important trait for finished
cattle production.
Eye Muscle Area: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye
muscle area of a 300 kg 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
300 kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat
and earlier maturity, leading to a higher fat classification in slaughtered
progeny.
Retail Beef Yield %: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out)
meat yield as a percentage of a 300 kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV
indicates higher percentage yield for the 300 kg carcase size. This is an
important trait in finished steers and heifers.
QUALITY BEEF INDEX
The South Devon Quality Beef Index is a combination of all traits into a single figure
and is a measure of a terminal sire’s ability to produce prime steers and heifers for
the finished market whilst maintaining calving ease at a reasonable level.
SUCKLER REPLACEMENT INDEX
The Suckler Replacement Index ranks bulls by their genetic potential for the
production of female replacements while producing prime steers and excess heifers
for beef production, with emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits.
