DNA Testing and Results

29 Oct 2023 2:28 PM | Anonymous

As you are preparing for the new DNA rules to take effect, the first step is to determine which animals in your herd have been DNA tested and which ones you will need to submit testing on. 

Do you want to know if your Miniature Hereford has already been DNA tested and view the results?

To see if a cow has been DNA tested, log on to the American Hereford Association website and go to the Genetics/EPD Search tool. From there, enter the name or registration number of the animal. Click on the animal to go to the Animal Details screen. From there, click on the details tab. If the box next to DNA Case ID is blank, the animal has not been tested.

When an animal is DNA tested, the results are emailed to the owner of the animal. If you would like to see the results of the DNA testing, log in to myherd.org.  Navigate to the Actions tab and then DNA Results. Click on the arrow to the left of the animal's registration number and click on the results button.

Please note that an animal may have more than one DNA test, so be sure to check all test results for the most complete information. If you have questions about DNA testing or results, contact the AHA office.
