Information for Vendors PRE-SALE INSPECTION: All animals entered for sale must be available for inspection as per the timetable. A veterinary officer, appointed by the Society, will check the animals teeth and in the case of bulls, testicles measure up to the minimum BCCS standard – details below. They will also check for any contagious diseases. The officially appointed BCCS stewards will check the animals for any patent defects, such as lameness, etc. The animals will also be weighed to make sure that they comply with the Charolais Society minimum weight for age – details below. 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 not be put forward for the auction. SOCIETY DISCLAIMER: “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 Charolais Cattle Society Ltd.” IDENTIFICATION MARKS: All cattle entered for the sale will have their UK tags examined as an integral part of the pre-sale inspection procedure. Any tags found to be faulty, incorrect or illegible will be rejected from the sale. Vendors are therefore urged, in their best interests, to examine the UK tags of sale cattle before the animals(s) leave their farm, so that faulty or missing tags can be replaced in accordance with the required Society procedures. DRUGS: The use of drugs is totally banned, as undernoted: 1. Preparation for Sale. Any drug which would affect the weight for age, conformation or growth of hair. 2. Presentation for Sale. Any drug which would affect soundness or temperament at Inspection, Judging or Auction Sale. DNA PARENTAGE VERIFICATION: All Charolais animals sold through BCCS auspices sales must be sire verified prior to sale.

EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR CATALOGUES Only British Charolais BREEDPLAN EBVs can be validly compared between Charolais herds.
ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)
The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.
ACCURACY
An accuracy value (Acc) is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives.
CALVING EASE Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.
DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny. Using a bull in
the Top 1% for CE direct (+16.7) is predicted to result in approximately 15% fewer assisted calvings in 2 year old heifers compared with using a bull in the Bottom 1% (-14.7). This range is predicted to be smaller in cows. Remember that the dam’s genetics and management are significant factors influencing calving ease in any mating.
DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.
BIRTH AND FERTILITY
GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth. BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers. SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negative correlation with age of puberty in female progeny.
GROWTH
MILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves. 200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages. 400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight. 600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age. MWT: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age. Moderate or larger EBVs are generally more favourable.
i
42
CARCASE EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals. FAT: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity. RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size. IMF%: Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intra-muscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.
Terminal Index
The BCCS Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Charolais bulls over large framed, mixed breed cows to breed steers and heifers to finish at 18 months of age. All progeny are destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 680 kg live weight (375 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase. Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 18 months of age. The index is focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to breeding replacement females. If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis on a higher calving ease direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.
Self Replacing Index
The BCCS Self Replacing index is aimed at a Charolais herd breeding steers to finish at 16 months of age. Replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while finishing steers for slaughter at around 680 kg live weight (375 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system. This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Charolais sires over mixed breed cows where replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour. Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter.
Charolais EBV ratios have been incorporated with the Estimated Breeding Values (EBV) to assist breeders in making their selection decisions when purchasing Charolais cattle. The Charolais EBV ratio for each trait shows that animal`s breeding value for that trait in relation to the current published breed average. The average for each trait is 100, and the approximate range between the bottom 1% and the top 1% is between 70 and 130. The British Charolais BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeders. Neither the British Charolais Cattle Society nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of this data.

British Charolais Myostatin Guide
What is Myostatin? Myostatin is a gene that influences the production of proteins which control muscle development. When an animal is identified as having one of the mutations it means that they have inactive genes which do not control muscle growth as effectively, this can result in increased muscle mass. Currently in cattle, there are 19 known mutations of the gene and after extensive testing for the nine most common varients, we have concluded that the British Charolais cattle population only contains two - F94L & Q204X. Why are we testing for Myostatin? Knowing the myostatin status of your animals will help you to select bulls with the most appropriate myostatin traits for your breeding programme. This will lead to better calving ease and help with the ever-present trend to improve carcase conformation and quality. However, it is just one tool which should be used in conjunction with the wider information available such as Estimated Breeding Values (EBV’s) – which predict the performance of the animal based on its back pedigree, accurate measurements and the performance of its herd mates – and your own judgement on type and pedigree. How are these genes inherited? All reproducing species have two copies of each gene – called alleles. If your Charolais has one copy of the myostatin variant (one allele) it is classed as heterozygous, if it has two copies (two allele) it is classed as homozygous. The table to below shows the chances of inheriting depending on the status of the parents:
2 Homozygous Parents 1 Homozygous Parent 1 Heterozygous Parent 1 Homozygous Parent 1 Non-carrier Parent 2 Heterozygous Parents 1 Heterozygous Parent 1 Non-carrier Parent 2 Non-carrier Parents

QR CODES In this catalogue we have printed QR code for each animal, this will take you to the web page which will give you full information on pedigree, bar charts and photographs if available
Step 1 Download and install a QR code app on your smartphone if you don't yet have one. Open your App Store, Market, Marketplace or App World application (for the iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile and BlackBerry platforms, respectively). Step 2 Search for "QR code reader," and then download and install a free app. The app should be named something to the effect of "QR Code Scanner" or "QR Scanner." There are paid versions of these kinds of apps, but the free ones work just as well. Step 3 Open the QR barcode app on your smartphone, and choose "scan from camera" or "scan QR code" from the main menu. A new window should open with a square in the middle of it. Step 4 Center the QR code in the middle of the square that's currently displayed by your QR barcode app. The app should automatically take a picture of the QR code for you when it has finished scanning the code. A new pop-up menu will appear, with the QR code information on it. Step 5 Click the link that was embedded in the QR code, this will direct you to the Society website.
