[QUOTE="KaitlinLego, post: 665857, member: 12916"] I didn't look to see if this was an active board, and I'm only a kid, so dont get mad if i sound un educated or naive. I am a new Angus breeder, i started through FFA and i have 3 heifers. My best heifer might be a AM carrier. I don't understand why you can't register AM carries in the Angus Association, unlike the Shorthorn Association where you can with a very similar disease. No one WANTS a AM affected calf, so if you had a AMC cow bred with a AMF bull, you will never get an affected calf. You'd simply have to test it to see if the calf was a carrier, and if it is take responsibility to not breed that calf to a AMC bull. Plus AMC bulls can not have certificates anymore, so if your in the club calf buissness you wouldnt breed to an AMC bull anyways. So my question is, why is the ANgus Association not letting people register AMC cows. [/QUOTE]
