[QUOTE="Cattleman200, post: 600518, member: 951"] Im with Frankie on the part of the AAA doing a good job dealing with this problem. This was an "all of a sudden black eye" to the AAA Assn. and they want it cleaned up asap. I plan on testing every Registered Angus influenced animal I have that has a known carrier in its pedigree unless that carrier is behind an AMF tested animal. For example If I have an animal sired by Twin Valley Precision E161(which is sired by 1680) and the other side of the pedigree is clean I will not be testing that animal because E161 tested AMF. I would have to think this would hold true for every animal with a known carrier in their immediate pedigree and they would have to be tested if their status is unknown. With annual registrations running around 300,000 + per year you can bet there will be thousands to test. Think about just the calves born the last few years out of 4L60, 2V1, Riverbend Milehigh and Future Direction just to name a few top AI bulls. Then factor in 1680 and some of the others plus calves out of all of the sons and daughters of these few bulls. Some of the largest Angus herds in the country are packed full of these genetics. I think there will be many animals to test on the registered side of this before it is finished but thats just my opinion. Circle H Ranch [/QUOTE]
