Maternal Upgrade Registration Requests

The steps involved to import Non-Simmental pedigrees into the CSA herd book are as follows:

1. Please fax (or email) the Registration ID for the animal that needs to be entered.
2. To avoid delays in the staff returning the unique CSA identification for these animals, please ensure that you also include the Breeder Copy/DNA certificate showing the current DNA/SNP results for any males that are being entered.  ** Important Note: If you were not the person that originally submitted the hair sample for the bull in question, you must obtain a copy of the DNA results by contacting the breed association office and speaking to someone in Registrations.  Without a copy of these results, we will be unable to complete the pedigree entry.
3. For more information pertaining to Simmental fractions, please go to  www.simmental.com and navigate under - Resources |  Upgrade Table

 

Hair Samples for DNA Testing

Once you have ordered a DNA kit from the office and have received the form, please send hair samples directly to Delta Labs with applicable forms.  Sending to the CSA office first causes a delay for you to receive results.
