All animals
selling will be tested AM, CA, NH and/or D2 Free, or have no direct
pedigree linkage to carrier animals. Most have already been tested by
catalog time. The others will be tested AMF, CAF, NHF and/ or D2F by
sale day, or they will not sell.
Health:
Missouri and Illinois are both Class Free TB and Class Free
Brucellosis States. All cattle will sell with interstate health papers avail-
able on sale day. Many of the consignors maintain Certified Brucellosis
Free Herds and several are on a Johne’s testing program. Sydenstricker
Genetics maintains Certified Brucellosis Free Herd #322. All bulls have
passed a breeding soundness evaluation within 60 days of sale day,
and those papers will accompany the bulls. All consignors maintain
an acceptable herd health and vaccination program, and all bulls
have been vaccinated for IBR, BVD and PI3, BRSV, Lepto-5 and Vibrio,
and de-wormed and de-loused within 60 days of sale.
Trichomoniasis:
Any non-virgin bulls and any bulls over 24 months of
age are required to have a negative PCR trichomoniasis test within 30
days of the sale. They must not have had contact with any breeding
age females for at least 30 days prior to that test.
In the event that a buyer wants to return a bull to the farm of the seller
as a non-breeder, the bull must have a negative PCR trichomoniasis
test before he is returned. A positive test for trich will void any breed-
ing guarantees.
Trucking:
We would like for buyers to move their bulls as soon as
possible, but New Cambria Livestock Market will care for any bulls
purchased for a reasonable time until trucking arrangements can be
made. The sellers will also assist the buyers in caring for the bulls if
necessary, and in finding reliable truckers if needed.
Insurance:
Livestock insurance will be available sale day.
Terms and Conditions:
Terms of the sale are cash.
Cattle will sell under the Terms and Conditions of the American Angus
Association
).
All persons who attend the sale do so at their own risk, and neither
Sydenstricker Genetics nor New Cambria Livestock Market assumes
any liability, legal or otherwise, for any accidents which may occur.
Interests Retained in Bulls:
You will notice we are selling half revenue-
sharing interest with full possession in some bulls. This means the bull
is totally in your control as far as how you want to handle him, and
you get 100% of the salvage value of the bull. Simply, the seller has the
right to half the semen sales revenue from the bull if sometime in the
future, semen sales becomes a possibility. If you sell the bull to another
breeder, the original seller retains that half interest.
If you purchase a half interest bull and wish to collect some semen on
the bull as an “insurance policy” for your own use, that semen is 100%
yours, unless the seller is in contact with you and also wishes to collect
the bull, either for within herd use, or to build a jointly-owned bank of
semen for sale.
Service Sires
to use on heifers for the Show-Me Select Heifer Program
must have a Calving Ease Direct (CED) EPD of +7 or higher.
Service Sires to use on heifers for the SydGen Influence Sale to be held
November 23, 2013 must be +3.0 or lower BW EPD and +6 or higher for
CED EPD, and must carry the SydGen prefix in their name.

EIGHth ANNUAL Spring SydGen
Influence Sale
April 9, 2013 • 6 p.m. • New Cambria Auction Market •
North of Hwy. 36 • New Cambria, Missouri • (660) 226-5222
Barn is located on the north side of Hwy. 36, between Macon and Brookfield.
Dear Cattlemen,
Welcome to our Eighth Annual SydGen Influence Spring Sale. As many of you know, we have always sold our
fall yearling bulls and January bull calves in our Annual Production Sale in November. We appreciate the accep-
tance of commercial cattlemen of our program and this sale offering through the years. We are proud to include
these contributing breeders who have used our genetics to create a larger group of SydGen influenced bulls to offer
to the public.
All but one of the SydGen bulls selling today are natural calves raised in one 36-head contemporary group. They
were weaned on September 12, and were 90 pounds lighter at weaning compared to the same age bull calves in
2011. They were fed a ration of corn silage, rolled corn and gluten pellets, fed with a feed truck, for 152 days, on a
20-acre fescue paddock with free choice grass hay. All yearling weights and scans were taken on February 11. After
yearling weights were taken, they continued on the same ration, with a higher percentage of silage, along with
forced exercise to help condition them for pasture use.
This sale is another step toward substantially increasing the number of SydGen influenced sires in the Midwest’s
good commercial herds. Over the years, we have brought many outside bloodlines into our herd, and tested them
with the extremes of Missouri’s climate and fescue challenges, and we have seen differences in the adaptability. We
have tried to mold the bloodlines that work into the herd sires we produce, and are proud of how well they’ve done
for others. All these contributing breeders selling today are performance-minded, with a long-term commitment to
breeding better Angus cattle, and we think you will be pleased with the offering.
