[QUOTE="Robin Lewis @ PBF, post: 1343958, member: 25570"] We are a humble farm with 15 fenced acres and about 12 beautiful Lowlines. We've had them about 3 years now and couldn't be prouder to own this breed. We have registered some of our herd and then decided to DNA test them. It's nice to offer proof in the paper to our buyers of what they are getting. So we started pulling hairs and filling out cards in hopes all was to easy and we could offer customer satisfaction until... A few tags feel off of our heifers ears ( new to tagging paid off) and then began to get confused at which cow was the right cow for the results. It was so easy to sell without all this fanciness of DNA but we knew it would keep us honest and true in our business. To make a long story short we have not sold a cow since last year and have to go into the red to retest all of our herd. How sad. Anyway we are lucky we have our supplier on the premises and looking forward to offering our babies with no questions or concerns for our customers soon. If you are interested in testing your herd, we use Igentity.com Corp or American Lowline Registers office. They are so helpful and patient with whatever our question is but they may be ready to hear from you instead. Lol. [/QUOTE]
