[QUOTE="Alan, post: 518439, member: 378"] I'm not familar with bovine DNA testing, but the AQHA has a company do it for $35 a head, its required for Stallions and Mares and foals of any AI breeding. To me this just seems like a no brainer, it's too sloppy and leaves too many chances for mistakes. It's just too easy of a problem to fix and an opportunity to give more legitimacy and revenue to associations. I'm not saying to DNA every calf, just the ones you register. If I'm buying a $2000 heifer I would like the association to back the pedigree it issued. Just too easy of a problem to fix, Alan [/QUOTE]
