Sale Information                     Red Hill Farms – Spring 2025
        VETERINARIAN:  Roger Thomas, DVM, Thomas and England Veterinary Services,
          (270-563-0011). Contact Dr. Thomas for any questions regarding Red Hill Farms’ herd
          health or breeding soundness exams of the sale bulls.
        FERTILITY/DISPOSITION GUARANTEE:  We guarantee the fertility and disposition of
          every bull selling. All bulls sell with a breeding soundness exam (BSE) certificate. Each
          bull is guaranteed to be a satisfactory breeder; assuming the buyer provides acceptable
          nutrition, health and management.

          •  If a bull proves to be a non-breeder, the buyer must contact Bart Jones or Sarah Jones
          on or before January 15, 2026, to make a claim.
          •  Red Hill Farms reserves the right to request a statement from a veterinarian and/or the
          bull being returned to Red Hill Farms at the buyer’s expense.
          •  If proper claim is made, the buyer will be given full credit if the bull is returned, OR full
          credit minus salvage value if the bull was sold with the credit to be used in a future Red
          Hill Farms sale.
                     GENOMIC ENHANCED EPDS:  Bulls that have breed genomic en-
                     hanced EPDs are designated in the catalog with a logo. Most of the bulls
                     selling have been genomically enhanced. DNA markers provide molecular
                     breeding values which are used to enhance the EPDs and improve the
          accuracy of the EPDs. This is particularly important because the EPDs on these bulls are
          much more accurate than prior to the use of these DNA values. These enhanced EPDs
          now have the same meaning as data for bulls that have several progeny records.
        $PROFIT GENOMIC ENHANCED INDEXES:  All $Profit Indexes in this
          catalog have been enhanced with Zoetis HD50K genomic testing.
        SALE PROCEDURES:  We will conduct a “Farmers’ Auction” to sell each
          individual lot. Cattle sell in catalog order. Each animal has a base price listed in the
          catalog. When it is time to sell a particular animal, we will ask those interested to hold
          up their buyer number. If only one number is in the air, the animal will be sold at the
          base price to that individual. If there are multiple numbers in the air, we will gradually
          raise the price until one number remains. If there is a tie (last two bidders drop out at the
          same time), the bid is given to the buyer with the lower buyer number. The other bidder
          may raise the bid by $250 if he wishes to stay in the auction. We intend for this to be a
          simple, low-pressure sale for the benefit of all involved.

        HEALTH:  Please contact us with any health questions.
