In the event of any discrepancy between the two sets of conditions, the NBA Conditions of Sale shall prevail
METHOD OF SALE: All cattle will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and strictly in catalogue order, unless any alteration is announced by the Auctioneers.
EXPORT: All animals are available for direct export to mainland UK. Animals can be exported to the Republic of Ireland by prior arrangement with the vendor.
UPSET PRICES: There will be an ‘Upset’ price of 1500 guineas on each female presented for sale - i.e. if no opening bid of 1500 guineas is received for any particular lot, that lot will be passed out of the ring unsold.
COMMISSIONS: The Auctioneers will dutifully execute commissions to purchase for buyers unable to attend the sale personally, upon receipt of written instructions.
REGISTRATIONS: All stock in the Sale are registered with the British Limousin Cattle Society (Tel 02476 696500).
PEDIGREE TRANSFERS: Official Pedigree Transfers will be effected by the Auctioneers and the British Limousin Cattle Society as soon as possible after the Sale. Full Pedigrees will be transferred free of charge to all members.

The full Auction Rules of the BLCS can be viewed in the Society’s Byelaws and on the website www.limousin.co.uk. A paper copy can be made available upon request to the BLCS office.
ARRIVAL OF STOCK - As per timetable of events (page 4).
PRE-SALE INSPECTION: All lots must be available for inspection, as per the timetable of events. A Veterinary Officer will examine all animals forward for general health and genetic defects, particularly teeth, eyes, locomotion. The Veterinary Officer and appointed Society Inspector will check general conformation, locomotion and breed characteristics and temperament. Any animal discovered with a genetic fault, disease or disorder will be REJECTED. Animals will be placed in a crush for this inspection - as required by the Veterinary Officer. The Veterinary inspection will form an integral part of the pre-sale inspection procedure. Please note - “All animals are subject to a pre-sale inspection to provide a minimum standard and animals are sold with all patent defects, and any subsequent claim after the fall of the hammer is against the vendor and not The British Limousin Cattle Society Ltd”.
IDENTIFICATION MARKS: At the point of inspection all animals born after 01 January 1998 must be clearly identified in accordance with bye-law 3.12. This includes all calves at foot.
MARGINAL TEETH - Any female found to have marginal teeth when inspected will have their sale ticket marked in yellow. Females with marginal teeth will be eligible to be shown in the pre-sale show.
EVERY ANIMAL entered for the Sale, MUST BE ADEQUATELY TRAINED TO LEAD BY HALTER and MUST BE PARADED FOR INSPECTION unless exempted by the Stewards, at the time and place to be notified. Evidence of faults of temperament, vices, etc., may lead to disqualification. All animals must be provided with a serviceable halter, which will become the property of the purchaser.
Please ensure all cattle passport documentation is handed to the Market Sales Office upon arrival. Failure to do so or if for any reason the paperwork does not correspond to the cattle being offered for sale, such animals will be not be put forward for the auction.
The proceeds of sale are guaranteed by the Auctioneers, however, this does not extend to the animals sold for export, to which special conditions apply.
RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals. The auctioneers reserve the right to charge half commission on the amount of the final bid in the case of animals which fail to reach the Vendors reserve price.
All animals will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission of 5% will be charged by the Auctioneers on all sales. No animal may be sold privately before being passed through the auction ring and full commission will be charged on the sale of any animal sold by private treaty after the auction. All such transactions must be passed through the auctioneers office.
NBA WARRANTIES: This Sale is also held subject to the Special Terms and Conditions of Sale recommended for Sales of Pedigree Beef Cattle by the National Beed Association. The preparation of these Terms and Conditions has proved a lengthy and costly process and, in order to defray the legal and other costs involved, and to provide a continuing source of revenue to assist the Association in its vital work for Pedigree Cattle Breeders, the Council of the Association has decided that a special levy, amounting to £3 per male and £2 per female head/lot sold (plus VAT) shall be charged to each Purchaser.
The pedigree, performance, DNA, health information and footnotes included in Society sale catalogues is as supplied by, or on behalf of the vendor. The responsibility for the accuracy of the information therefore rests solely with the vendor and not with the British Limousin Cattle Society Ltd (BLCS). It should be noted that the Estimated Breeding Values for all animals change over time, as new performance records come available. While the BLCS and Genesure Ltd seek to ensure that the information contained in catalogues is accurate at the time of printing in accordance with their terms and conditions, no warranty is given in respect thereof by the BLCS and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the BLCS shall have no liability for any loss, damage or injury howsoever caused (including that caused by negligence) or suffered directly or indirectly in relation to information and opinions contained in or omitted from this publication. Genesure Ltd’s liability is limited to the extent set out in its terms and conditions (a copy is available from the BLCS office upon request).

‘Got by AI’ indicates whether the calf was a result of an AI service. If blank, the dam was naturally served. ‘Natural calf’ indicates the calf was born to its biological dam. ‘ET calf’ indicates the calf was born as a result of embryo transplant.
2. Myostatin
“Not tested” indicates that no Myostatin test is currently available for the animal. Full details on the Myostatin variants and their effects on performance can be found on the Limousin Society website www.limousin.co.uk, search in ‘performance programmes’. In summary:
The Variants:
F94L
Animals with two copies of this gene (ie F94L/F94L) exhibit an increase in muscling (by up to 19%) with no associated increased in calving difficulty, lowered fertility or longevity and by far the majority of animals in the breed carry this gene. Heterozygous animals (those with one copy of the gene) also exhibit these characteristics but not to the same degree.
NT821
Animals with two copies of the gene (ie nt821/nt821) will exhibit characteristics of larger loin depths, reduced fat depths and large, rounded rump and thighs. However, unlike F94L, animals with two copies may also have slightly heavier birth weights bringing with it the potential for more difficult calvings, If animals are ‘heterozygous’ with F94L (ie F94L/nt821) they will still exhibit quality carcase characteristics but are less likely to be affected by more difficult calvings.
Q204X
Animals with two copies of the gene (ie Q204X/Q204X) will exhibit characteristics of larger loin depth, reduced fat cover and greater meat tenderness. However, they may also have the potential to exhibit larger birth weight and, if females, slightly reduc ed milking ability. Animals that are ‘heterozygous’ with F94L (ie F94L/Q204X) will still exhibit quality carcase characteristics but are less likely to be affected by larger birth weights and reduced milking ability.
Two further variants of Myostatin exist in the population but are relatively uncommon in their occurrence. Known as nt419 and E291X, their effects are similar to nt821 and Q204X respectively.
The recognised benefits of Myostatin are:
✓ Increased Meat Yield – by up to 19%.
✓ More feed efficient
✓ Higher meat quality – increased tenderness, reduced fat content, higher polyunsaturated fats
An important factor to remember is that carcase traits (muscling, fat cover etc), calving traits and milk traits in cattle are controlled by MANY genes. Myostatin is only one of them and, as such, it is not an absolute predictor of an animal’s performance
A Myostatin genotype is a further bit of information that may help your decision, but it should be used in conjunction with wider information such as Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs), which bring together information of actual performance from the animal itself, its herdmates and its relatives to predict genetic merit, and your own judgment on type and pedigree.
3. Genetic Colour
Colour and polled/horned genes typically come in pairs called alleles. One is inherited from the sire and one from the dam. Where an animal’s alleles are the same, it is said to be ‘Homozygous’ (Hom.) Where the alleles are different (because there is more than one variant of the gene, the animal is said to be ‘Heterozygous’ (Het.)
“Hom. Red” – animals will be red and will pass on red genes
“Hom. Black” – animals will be black and will pass on black genes. All calves will be black, since black colour genes are dominant.
“Het. Black” – animals will be black and will pass on either a red or black gene
“Het. Red” – animals will be red and will pass on a red gene or a colour gene known as the ‘wild type’ that is non-colour determinate. (The coat colour of calves inheriting the wild type gene will be governed by the gene they inherit from the other parent. It is rare, but it is also possible for an animal to be homozygous for the wild type gene, in which case they will be reddish/brown to brownish/black)
EBVs & GEBVs are expressed in the same unit as the recorded trait (eg kgs for 400 Day Weight, mm for Muscle Depth etc) are relative to the Breed Average.
a) In sale catalogues, Breed Average for each trait is represented by the vertical line t hat is central on the bar chart...
✓ Bars that lie to the right of that line indicate EBVs/GEBVs that are above average. The further to the right they lie, the higher above Breed Average they are.
✓ Equally, bars that lie to the left of the line indicate EBVs/GEBVs that are below Breed Average. The further to the left they are, the further below Breed Average they are.
b) Accuracy Values (Acc%) are expressed as a % and indicate the quantity and quality of records used to produce each EBV, GEBV or Index. The closer they are to 100%, the more accurate the EBV. Highly accurate values are less likely to change over time.
c) The numeric EBV & GEBV values on the charts can be used to further refine comparison with the breed using the Breed Benchmark which is updated annually.
For more information on EBVs and GEBVs, go to www.limousin.co.uk and search under ‘Breed Improvement’ in the main menu or scan the QR code opposite.
EBV, GEBV and pedigree information on all Limousin cattle are just a few internet clicks away…
Step 1: Go to www.taurusdata.co.uk
Step 2: In the ‘All Breeds Quick Search’ box type the name or ear number of the animal you are interested in or click on the ‘Breeder Search’ button to look at all animals belonging to or bred by a particular breeder.
The site will then tell you the animal’s owner/breeder details, its breeding values, its pedigree and list its progeny with full links to all of their information.
A bull that is “Hom. Polled” - will be polled himself and all calves will be polled (since he only has polled genes to pass on and they are dominant).
A bull that is “Het. Polled” – will be polled himself and will produce some polled and some horned calves (assuming the cows are all horned).
