[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1290976, member: 20599"] On the transfer form, you have to say which bull the heifer was AI'd to. And when the AI tech comes out, (s)he fills out a form saying which bull was used on which cow. That form goes back to the semen co. So I assume that when you request an AI certificate for animal AAA 651728 (for example), they can cross-reference and (theoretically at least) catch you if you lie. (I'm not sure how it works if you buy semen and do the AI yourself; maybe some others will weigh in...Just honor system maybe?). Of course, the bigger question is when you AI, then turn them in with a bull right away. I would assume people do a DNA test in that case, but I do wonder if some people don't just take an educated guess at which sire it ended up being. I would hope not... [/QUOTE]
