Hi all...
Sorry I haven't been around lately...my Murrays are doing great and we recently attended the NAILE (so I HAVE been doing cattle!haha). My question is.... tell me everything you know about Parentage Verification and other reasons for DNA testing.
My bull was verified so he could be placed in the herdbook but what good reasons are there for breed associations to DEMAND testing on registered bulls. Or do they even require it at all? Just tell me what you know...The reason I'm asking is that it was proposed for our association and I'm trying to get input... Thanks!
