We guarantee all bulls to be breeders and we reserve the right to test
any bulls in question as a non-breeder for at least 180 days before
making an adjustment. And, if the bull is declared a sound breeder
by a competent veterinarian, he will be returned to the buyer, at the
buyer’s expense. In case an adjustment is required, it will be made
with a replacement of equal value to the animal in question, credit on
purchase of another animal, or return of purchase price. We guaran-
tee cattle to be healthy sale day.
