I have a couple that are registered through there, but I don't know why.... Soays aren't a miniature.... Just because they are a smaller sheep doesn't make...
I guess they weren't making enough money on dairy goat breeders.... I see it's $10 for membership (discounted for more than one year), $10 herd name...
Funny - when I looked at the tiny thumbnail in the email version, I thought "Funny, it looks like a bighorn..." Shoulda gone with my instincts! Gevan In a...
I have wondered too about the color phase and agouti pattern of Ovis canadensis. If anyone is interested further, you might see if you can find on eBay, or...
I might point out to those now considering IDGR and MNSBAR registries that both existed and were used by NA Soay enthusiasts in the "early years" and both were...
I registered with MNSBAR for the previous 2 years just because I felt it was the best I could do, and most of my foundation stock was already registered with...
It sounds like customer service and promptness was the main problem... I know that was my issue with them also. They take your money (although it took...
When we first acquired our American Soay foundation flock, all had been registered with the International Dairy Goat Association. Our Soays came from Kelscott...
It has been discussed to death in the past. I personally don't know why we need to start a new registry. There is a wealth of information on the OFP. The OFP...
I'm not saying at all that Steve & Priscilla aren't doing a good job... I had even emailed with her exactly a year ago (I still have the email) and asked...
Elizabeth and I would certainly be willing to pay a nominal fee for OFP services we use now or in the future, and if a registration number was included on each...
If everyone with Soay is participating in the Scrapie program (which they should be) each animal does have a unique number - The premise ID and the animal...
Since the Scrapie program is a voluntary thing, it is a personal choice on whether or not someone "should" participate. Personally, I do not participate in...
I agree... There also seems to be a wide variety of opinions regarding a registry... whether or not one is even needed. Steve would have to be handsomely...
[this is a long message - sorry] Like everyone else, Steve and I are following the latest discussion of "registration" with interest and thought it might be...
I do hope everyone mentioned what a great service you are doing Priscilla and Salt Marsh, and be greatful for the hours and thought and timeless consideration...
Priscilla, I am amazed with what you and Steve have done so far with out asking for any compensation.Your work is above and beyond words! I am happy with the...
I have to agree that we need a registry. It is hard when you are selling them-"oh yes, they are all pure bred, and registrable...if there was a registry..." I...
I certainly have no problem with using OFP as a registry, the service that Steve and Priscilla provide is exemplary, I was just under the impression, that that...

re "I actually appreciate the free visit from the vet each year. He's always happy to answer general questions for me". That sounds awesome -but I think...
Yes, that sounds like a pain in the tushie. I was only responding about the US program. It is entirely cost-free for us. Inspections are free. Tags are free....

Hi all - I had let my flock into the backyard to graze what grass they could, and they all went straight for the acorns. They ate quite a few, when I vaguely...
