Open Registry Program
HOW TO USE THIS PROGRAM
Complete the Dual Purpose Request for
Registration Approval (Forms). Check
the "Open Registry Program" box at the top of the form
and attach the required supporting information.
Please use these color definitions
when completing the Form.
W
- White fleeced animal with no known natural colored heritage
W/N - White fleeced animal with natural colored heritage
N - Animal with natural colored fleece
For each animal, provide proof of previous
registration if available. This might be a copy of CSSNA, CSSNZ
or CSSAU paperwork, or a copy of a CSSNA Flock Inventory showing
the registration number of the animal. If these are unavailable,
a farm pedigree that traces the animal to one of the above may
be accepted
For each animal, provide a photograph and
a fleece sample with its weight noted. Photos may be sent electronically
to the Committee Chair by prior arrangement. Be sure to identify
each animal by its ID on the photo. Paper copy photos will be
returned if you include a SASE with your application.
If you own a purebred ram or ewe that especially
exemplifies the qualities that make up Coopworth sheep but you
do not have the pedigree or paperwork to apply for registration
as described above, please complete as much of the form as possible.
On the back, write about your first-hand knowledge of the animal.
In some cases, the ACR is able to help trace lineage and may
be able to find information about your sheep.
You should not assume that making an application
will result in the registration of the animal. The Committee
will review all the information you provide and will inform you
of its decision.
If you are selling or buying an animal
whose registration is dependent upon acceptance through this
program, it is recommended that the review process be completed
prior to sale.
If you have questions or need help with
your application, contact Martha McGrath, Committee Chair at
deerrun@mountain.net
or 304-358-2239. Please mail your completed application and attachments
to Martha McGrath, HC72 - Box 14D, Franklin, WV 26807.
