FRIES & BURT 5/5/24
Thank you for viewing our 2024 spring sale. These calves offered are some of our absolute very best. As we travel across the county looking at the new baby calf crop we would much rather see them unclipped. So that is how we are going to sell them to you, unclipped and unfit. These calves however have been given a few baths and are broke to tie.
All calves are considered healthy at the time of the sale and sell as is with but no guarantee on fertility, disposition or soundness. All calves will be vaccinated, castrated and dehorned at the seller’s expense. Any cosmetic dehorn must be done after pick up and at the buyers expense.
50% of the purchase price will be expected at the conclusion of the sale and the remaining amount is due before the animal is picked up. All animals are on creep and will remain on creep until the animal is picked up no later than September 1st 2024.
In the unlikely event the calf dies before being picked up the buyer will be given their money back. If the animal is not picked up by September 1st the sale is voided and no money will be reimbursed.
We retain the right to two successful flushes with a minimum of 6 embryos per flush.
