What do the different registration types mean?

Posted November 7, 2024

Registration types indicate the Registered status of an animal. Anything other than an (R) or (I) status cannot be transferred or have registration certificates printed.

  • (R) Registered - animal is registered and no additional information is required
  • (I) Incomplete - animal is registered, weaning weight has not been recorded and the calf is less than a year old. This status will automatically change to R after the calf is a year old.
  • (C) Compute - This animal is not registered and has only been recorded to satisfy THR reporting requirements.
  • (F) Foreign - This animal has been imported from another association and is not registered. These animals are considered foundation animals and can be the sire or dam to registered progeny.
  • (U) Genetic Defect Hold- This animal is on hold and needs DNA testing for a genetic defect.
  • (Z) Parent DNA required - This animal is on hold due to missing DNA on a required parent. All sires (regardless of mating type) and all donor dams are required to have DNA on file.
  • (B) Pedigree Exclusion - This animal is on hold status because its DNA is excluded from one or more parent(s) listed on their pedigree.
