WHAT IS MAINE ANGUS? The Maine Angus program is an initiative created by the American Maine-Anjou Association (AMAA) to showcase the complementation of Maine-Anjou genetics when crossed with Angus or Red Angus cattle. This program will reveal Maine-Anjou cattle’s ability to enhance feed efficiency and red meat yield when placed on British based genetics. This program should provide seedstock that will increase production and carcass yield through heterosis. The name Maine Angus is both strong and informative by stating exactly what breeds are present in said animal. The standard requirement is that both parents must be registered at the AMAA, American Angus Association (AAA) or Red Angus Association of America (RAAA). This will provide confirmed lineage and genetic information along with valuable EPDs. Through a partnership with the AAA our EPDs will be updated with the latest genetic evaluation by the AAA which will provide the breeders and customers the best genetic prediction available. This program is focused on producing quality registered offspring that will
aid in the incorporation of Maine-Anjou genetics into the mainstream of the USA beef sector.
PROGRAM STANDARDSMaine Angus refers to cattle with the following characteristics:
• The animal will have between 3/8 Maine-Anjou to 5/8 Maine-Anjoublood and have between 3/8registered Angus to 5/8 registered Angus and/or registered Red Angus blood. • Both parents must be registered at the AMAA, AAA or RAAA to confirm lineage. • Qualifying cattle can have no morethan 1/8 of non-registered blood orother breeds.• A registered Maine Angus bull must be proven free of genetic defects PHA and TH. Depending on the Maine Angus bull’s genetic makeup, the individual must also be proven free of known Angus lethal genetic defects (Ex. AM, NH and CA) and/or known lethal Red Angus genetic defects (Ex. AM, NH, CA
and OS) whether determined by pedigree or test.• A registered Maine Angus female must be proven free of PHA and TH, whether identified by pedigree or test.
MAINE ANGUS COLOR STANDARDSAll qualifying individuals will be predominately solid black or red in color. White markings are only allowed on the underline and switch of the tail. Feet and legs must be solid black or red.
• NOTE: All Maine Angus animals that do not meet the color requirment, but were registered prior to Jan. 1, 2019, will retain their Maine Angus papers. They will not be able to exhibit/show in the Maine Angus division, but are still eligible to show as MaineTainers.• If an animal is registered Maine Angus, but is found to not meet the color requirements, they will be reverted to a MaineTainer registration.

Females represented as bred or exposed are not guaranteed as “safe in calf,” but they and the open heifers selling as individual lots are guaranteed to be breeders. NO guarantee shall apply to suckling salves. NO guarantee is given that bred females will deliver a live calf. Any animal that appears to be a non-breeder within six months after date of sale, if in healthy condition and of breeding age, may be returned to seller at buyer’s expense. Seller will then reserve the right to prove the animal a breeder within a six-month period, using any purebred registered Maine-Anjou bull of his choice, A.I. or natural service, and if successful will return bred female to buyer, again at buyer’s expense. Should the animal fail to prove a breeder, the seller, at his option, may either return purchase price to buyer or replace the animal with another of equal value in full settlement and satisfaction of all claims. In no event shall seller be responsible for more than the purchase price. In case the animal in question should develop to be a problem breeder due to negligence or improper management by the purchaser, the seller’s guarantee does not apply. In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after this sale, this guarantee shall be null and void. Any complaints regarding breeding difficulties must be reported in writing by the buyer to seller within the time limit specified above, and animals returned must be free from disease and in good condition.
Liabilities: All persons who attend the sale do so at heir own risk. The sellers and the sale manager assume no liability, legal or otherwise, for any accidents that may occur. Neither does the sale manager assume any liability for loss of or injury to livestock due to theft, mysterious disappearance, sickness, improper handling or Act of God. It is to be clearly understood that the sale manager and representatives act only as a medium between buyer and seller. They are not responsible in any way for any failure on the part of the buyer and the seller to live up to his obligations or for the truth of any warranties or representation expressed or implied. Neither does the sale manager assume any financial obligations to collect or enforce collections of monies between buyer and seller.
Contract: The above terms and guarantees shall constitute a contract between buyer seller of each animal and shall be equally binding on both. Animals that are resold following purchase in this sale shall constitute a separate transaction, and the rights and obligations of the two parties connected thereto are not covered by these Sale Terms and Conditions.
