[QUOTE="Katpau, post: 1807810, member: 9933"] Bulls must be tested free to be eligible for registration. Cows can be registered without testing, but their potential carrier status will be noted on their registration. This includes any animal that traces back to a known carrier through untested parents. For example, your cow or bull traces back to known carrier Bull A who is the great great great grandsire of your cow. none of the cows between him and your cow were tested and found to be free of the defect. A bull calf born to that cow, can not be registered, unless tested and found to not be a carrier. Her daughters would be eligible for registration and that potential would be noted on the registration, and the risk would continue on into the next generation. For that reason, most seed-stock producers will test their cows too, and remove the carriers. Some exceptional individuals may remain in the herd for a time in hopes of producing clean replacements out of them. [/QUOTE]
