[QUOTE="cbcr, post: 1813760, member: 16303"] We have both the International Beef Cattle Registry and the International Dairy Cattle Registry. This year 2023 we are celebrating 10 years of service to the dairy and beef industries. The process of registering cattle, the information should be complete and accurate and not be just a piece of paper. But too many times we have seen registration papers from many registries that the sire or dams information is blank. Why? Because the animal that was left off of the papers what not a registered animal or the animal was of another breed. We DO document all known ancestry and do breed percentages for each breed. Many beef registries will call an animal purebred at 87.5% and the in future calculations use it as a 100% animal. This is wrong. Yes, purity is important! But for those registries to not do their due diligence is lazy for the most part by them. By documenting all know ancestry, if a recessive should happen, then knowing the ancestry can make it easier to possibly finding where in the ancestry it may have occurred. For our beef registrations, we show the birth weight, weaning weight and yearling wights on the papers. For adjustments we only do them to the 205 or 365 days. While there are adjustments for the age of them dam, if taking animals to the sale the only sell on actual weight. I have never heard an auctioneer say that this calf is out of a 2 year old cow so we are going to add 5 lbs for the weight adjustment. We receive many compliments on our papers, we not only document the normal information, but we also have information for tattoo's, ear tag numbers and colors, RFID tag numbers, Brands, If any genetic testing is done for recessives ( the lab we use tests for over 100 haplotypes and recessives) While there are many composite breeds and crosses, it is important that there are still breeders that breed the purebred animals that are used in those composites.
