Of course, there will always be the new ones coming along to make sure we're never completely caught up. :)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16390325505351159920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2046348962517872270.post-67762219998474813382014-12-11T20:24:13.977-05:002014-12-11T20:24:13.977-05:00Wow!

But we can be counted in that 4% of breeders having registered animals born since 2010 that have both sire and dam qualified! We're working on getting our 2 new girls and one other girl caught up by the end of January. And we have a goal of having our entire herd fully tested by the beginning of summer! Thanks again! You are greatly appreciated!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121820035844661657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2046348962517872270.post-82249297014013140742014-12-09T09:01:38.578-05:002014-12-09T09:01:38.578-05:00LOL, Gordon, yes, this subject is dam interesting!...LOL, Gordon, yes, this subject is dam interesting! ;) I don't know how many breeds require parentage verification for registration, but ours is moving towards that. Anyone who buys registered cattle deserves to have assurance of the pedigree they are buying.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16390325505351159920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2046348962517872270.post-68712956248086651932014-12-09T08:59:19.501-05:002014-12-09T08:59:19.501-05:00Thank you for commenting, Janell.

Not sure what all that means, being a non-cattle owner, but it looks like important information for cattle owners. Love the pictures. Especially the one of the brown one running with his tail in the air. So cute! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
