[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1046229, member: 13402"] Well here we go again. Our system of verifying was taking the oldest cow in the herd that was a potential carrier and getting a DNA test to verify if she was a carrier or not. If she was a carrier (out of three in the herd one was tested to be a carrier) she got a white tag which in our herd means she is a commercial cow. Any calves out of her in the herd also recieved a white tag and registration on these animals was cancelled. Angus breeders can go to your angus log-in and pull up the genetic defect page. They already have a list of potential carriers for D2 listed on the site. The only question I have is I have two cows in my herd that I would be concerned about 010 an 036 daughter and 577 a 1407 daughter. The current list shows them with no potential carriers in their pedigree which based on the list of bulls would mean they for sure could be potential carriers. I wonder if they haven't actually completed this report and if so why would they put it up if not completed. Gizmom [/QUOTE]
