1. Herd Prefix – All animals must be registered with the herd prefix of the owner at the time of birth. If you purchase an animal that was not previously registered you must use the prefix of the owner at the time of birth. This owner must sign the application giving their authorization to use their prefix. If the owner at the time of birth does not have a herd prefix you should use their last name as the prefix and again you must have their signed authorization.
