[QUOTE="UG, post: 834994, member: 714"] Unfortunately way too often registered cattle of all breeds don't parent verify to the animal that they were registered under. This could be due to a variety of reasons: a. wrong straw of semen was pulled from the tank without the inseminator recognizing the mix-up b. calf was born closer to the AI date but actually sired by clean-up bull c. bull in neighboring pasture jumped the fence to breed the cow rather than the bull that was assigned to that pasture d. cows that calve the same day get mixed up and claim each other's calves e. breeder intentionally records wrong animal f. etc., etc., etc. I am familiar with an Angus operation that parent verifies every calf born on their place and every animal they purchase. They frequently find that cow's swap calves at birth, and unfortunately frequently the cattle that they buy (often high dollar animals) don't verify to the sire or dam. [/QUOTE]
