The latest from registry headquarters...
8/18/08--The photo contest winners are finally posted! Sorry it took so long. First the computer crashed here at HQ in June, and it took a month and a half to fix it. Then I had eye surgery in July to fix my near-sightedness. All is good, and my eyesight is 20/15 now. Thanks to everyone for your patience and to Marlo for her well wishes. -Eddie-
5/11/08--The registry documents listed above are now available in PDF format. You will need Adobe Acrobat to open them. E-mail me if you require Word documents. -Eddie-
2/17/08--Check out our bookstore link for livestock and crafting titles. More titles to come. "Skepqueen" is my eBay selling i.d., and books bought through my Half.com store directly benefit AMCSBA. Help us grow! Buy a book today! -Eddie-
1/27/08--Hope everyone is having a great New Year!
I want to take this time to answer questions about registration timelines, fees, and breeder responsibilities.
Registration Timelines: To qualify for the $7.00 registration fee, a lamb must be registered during its birth year. This does not provide a 12 month window of registration from the time of birth. Rather, a lamb must be registered during the same calendar year. (i.e., if lambed in 2008, it must be registered on/before December 31, 2008). Lambs registered after their birth year are subject to a $10.00 registration fee. The fee increase is levied to encourage breeders to register their lambs in a timely manner.
It is important to register lambs during their birth year, as the registry generates year-end statistics. When lambs are registered late, the reports must be revised. Accurate statistics provide important breed information to potential buyers & researchers (birth numbers, colors, sexes, multiples, etc). Please, let's all do our part to maintain the accuracy of our registry statistics.
Breeder Responsibilities: It is each breeder's resonsibility to register lambs before selling them. Buyers should avoid purchasing lambs on the promise that "they will soon be registered," or "registration will be sent later." Lambs cannot be registered by buyers, only breeders. Buyers may contact the registry to confirm registry status of any lambs they may wish to purchase. However, AMCSBA does not oversee the business practices of individual breeders, nor does it mediate.
I hope this answers questions you may have on this subject. If you require more explanation, please contact me (Eddie) at the registry.
Thanks, and have a productive lambing season!
