At Double "H" Farms, we guarantee our cattle not just because we want customer satisfaction, but because we have confidence in our own breed program. We believe in offering a sound investment to you. If you are not satisfied with our cattle, then we can't be either!
CONDITIONS
HEALTH: All of the cattle we sell are guaranteed to be healthy at the time of sale and or delivery by Double "H" Farms. If there is a condition that we feel would adversely affect the breeding ability or longevity of the animal we will not sell it for breeding purposes. If a question should arise at the time of purchase or delivery by Double "H" Farms in regards to the animals health, then the purchaser and seller will attempt to reconcile the condition in question. If a condition exists that is found to be a result of oversight by Double "H" Farms, or an injury incurred during a transport performed by Double "H" Farms, then the seller will be responsible for any cost incurred. The seller will not be responsible for injuries incurred by any transporter chosen of buyers choice. If a heath condition is unfounded, the buyer will be responsible for any cost incurred to verify the animals health. Buyer then has the right to either accept the animal as is or request a refund if payment has already been made. Seller retains the right to revoke the sale if buyer and seller can not reconcile.
VACCINATIONS: All cattle will have current vaccinations. All females who are old enough will have official calfhood vaccination. See our "Care" page for our vaccination program.
FERTILITY:
Bulls: All breed bulls over 12 months of age will be fertility tested. Bulls sold under 12 months of age are sold with no further guarantee, as we cannot be responsible for the conditions the animal is subject to, once under the buyers care. The fertility test, and our health clause is our guarantee that the bull is sold as an effective breeder. Exceptions to this clause will be between the buyer and seller.
Females: Heifer calves under 14 months of age are sold as is. Cows with calves on their sides are considered effective breeders, and are sold with no further guarantee. All females sold open over 14 months to 8 years of age, without calves on their sides, are guaranteed to breed safe with an initial 90 day exposure to a fertility tested bull. This 90 days is in addition to A.I attempts, as we cannot be held responsible for improper storage of semen, bad semen, or improper A.I techniques. There is no guarantee if the buyer first subjects them to estrus synchronization superovulations or ova transfers. If a cow is first attempted to be bred A.I it must have been done by a certified A.I tech or DVM. If after the 90 day exposure and minimum of 45 day wait period, palpation by a DVM reveals the cow has not bred, and she has no clinical reasons for not breeding, then the purchaser will receive a full refund or be given a suitable replacement agreeable by seller and buyer. Double "H" Farms reserves the right to attempt breeding of the female in question for a minimum of 60 days, plus 45 day wait period, prior to issuing a refund or replacement. Double "H" Farms will have no further obligations should the new owner fail to contact Double "H" Farms in regards to the alleged infertility within 4 months of purchase. Remember the #1 cause for a cow not breeding is malnutrition.
VERIFICATION OF BLOODLINE: All cattle bred by Double "H" Farms are guaranteed to be of the sire and dam stated. We will only blood type an animal if the possibility exist of a chance breeding with another bull or if the cow calves close to the exposure date after being A.I. bred. Once an animal has been purchased, the buyer has 90 days from the date of purchase and or the delivery date to dispute the bloodline of an animal back to immediate parents only, otherwise we assume you have no contest. We assure you we would not knowingly or intentionally sell any of our cattle without positively knowing the animals sire.
