[QUOTE="MO_cows, post: 803498, member: 9169"] I have worked for breed registries that required parent verification by blood typing, then later on DNA, on animals to be registered. Some of them required it on every animal that was to be called purebred or fullblood or whatever their highest level of registry status was. It was undoubtedly a major expense for the breeders and it made more work and headaches for everyone involved. But it sure did reveal a lot of mistakes/inaccuracies that would have went into the herd book undetected otherwise. Hereford seems to be gaining back some of the ground they lost over the years. Seems like this is one more selling point to build on. Hope the extra expense and work pays off for the breeders. [/QUOTE]
