July 2024 News

There will be a new HSS ad in the Canadian Shorthorn Report in their July/August issue (see ad below), and there is also an ad in the July issue of Small Farmers Journal.

A new Calf of the Month has been posted for July, and there will be a new one each month for the next several months (keep those calf pictures and parentage info coming).

Lonny Flack still has a stash of stories and reminiscing about showing Shorthorns “back in the day”, and the next article in his “A Shorthorn Heritage” series on the Cattle Viewpoints page will be posted early this month (July) for you to enjoy reading.

There are some new interesting additions to the “Pictures from the Past, Page 2”.

HSS Registrations—If you are dual registering with HSS plus ASA or AMSS, and you already have a registration # from them, you can include a snapshot of their registration paper along with your HSS application. We will incorporate that information into the HSS Registry database and on the HSS registration paper. Our goal is to build the most accurate and complete pedigree database for Heritage Shorthorns in the world.

Are you new to genetic testing for your cattle, and in need of information? Within the next few days there will be a new page on the HSS website titled “Genetic Testing—Why, Where, and How”. The page will be located under the Registration/Verification Folder.
