not defending anyone but how do you know the breeder did sell a bull that can't breed ?Just so I understand you correctly, you're suggesting not pursuing the original breeder for selling a bull which can't breed?
hense my question above

hense my question above
You are correct that there are no recognised sales but there were several major sales of pedigree Limousin bulls where nobody realised at the time they were buying commercial bulls.Is there a major sale anywhere of non-pedigree bulls. Maybe one or two at local marts, sometimes lucky to get a reasonable bid, but nowhere near the choice you get at pedigree sales.
The trick is; never trust a pedigree breeder, so you won't be disappointed. And if you can't get a replacement for a dud bull, he will make £1300 fat, which will go towards buying another from a different breeder. And save yourself the hassle and veterinary bills of making a formal complaint.
They may have sold a bull that can't breed now but that don't mean he couldn't when he was sold hence my question above, what would cause the puss ?I read it that the bull was fertility tested and couldn't breed. Hence, the breeder sold a bull which can't breed.
When I've sold pups I guarantee them to work. If you're not happy, come back at any point and return the dog for a 100% no questions asked refund.
Vet checked 9 days after sale?They may have sold a bull that can't breed now but that don't mean he couldn't when he was sold hence my question above, what would cause the puss ?
How long does a infection (I presume) take ?Vet checked 9 days after sale?

Hence the question, what did the vet say ?You need evidence, so a vet's report surely?
£3200 paid for the bull.How much did you pay for the bull?
This sounds typical of those trusty pedigree breeders. The rules will probably state he must be capable of getting a percentage in calf by natural service. However you told him that you would be semen testing him, drop him back in the pens at borderway, I would imagine they will just reread the rules and not be very helpful.
Hand H said I just have to play the warranty game.Doesn't look like there was any need for fertility tests pre-sale but a bull is only needed for one purpose. If he is only producing pus cells I would worry about underlying infection.
I agree that you may end up with 6 cows not in calf or even worse 2 in calf and a sub-fertile bull.
Get back to H&H with his response.

Poor show all round.
Different I should imagine if it was my local market.
