Absentee & Sight Unseen Purchasing Sale Day Phone #: 651-923-4587 Absentee: We have only a single phone line available sale day and our sale facility is located in a large valley where cell phone service is very unreliable, making absentee phone bidding somewhat difficult. So we welcome and encourage any buyers who are unable to attend on sale day, to come and inspect the bulls ahead of time to formulate your purchasing decisions. Brian will handle all of the absentee bidding in accordance with your instructions, and will contact any absentee bidders prior to 1:00 on Sale Day for final instructions. Sight Unseen:
If you can’t make it to the sale, and going through the bulls ahead of time is not an option for you, we do offer a Sight Unseen Guarantee where we will guarantee your satisfaction on all purchases. If you need to make a SUS purchase please contact Brian at 1-888-226-9210 prior to sale day so we have adequate time to discuss your operation, your cow herd and breeding program to find the bull that will best fit your needs.

Bull Housing
All Bulls will be housed free of charge until May 1st, after which time we will continue to house your bull(s) until needed at a charge of $3.00/ day. ** Note that several of the Balancer Bulls don't yet have Individual Calving Ease and Carcass EPD's. The reason for this is that the sires of these bulls are new additions to the Gelbvieh Database, and there is insufficient data on these Angus and Red Angus sires within the Gelbvieh Registry to generate Balancer EPD's. While Balancer EPD's aren't yet available on these individual bulls, their sires are proven Angus and Red Angus sires with proven EPD’s in their respective Breed Associations (Angus & Red Angus). Many of these reference sires are listed along with their EPD’s in the catalog for you to review.
