I was looking about the ADGA Genetics and noticed that one of my does shows an appraisal history of one. This would lead me to believe she should have an appraisal score, but I am not sure where to find it. Anyone help me out? http://www.adgagenetics.org/GoatDetail.aspx?RegNumber=N001363910 Troy
Click Linear History on the left hand side of the page. Her LA score can be found on the Member's Only portion of the ADGA website: 1-01 78 (+VAA) Sara
Now how the heck do I read that. :crazy Do I add up certain ones to get my score? Like is she an 86VVEE or????? Linear History For: PRUITTVILLE'S LUKE'S GLOXINA - N001363910 (PB Doe) LAYear Age ST* SR DY RA RW* RLSV FUA RUH* RUA UD MSL TP TD 2007 01-01 20 27 34 29 29 31 34 23 19 38 22 16 08 Troy
Sara, Explain to her the letters above the score and point her to the LA chart for Linear traits. We can't explain the scores in a post...you need to look at the pictures that go along with the #'s. Kaye
I fiqured it out, thanks....I had only looked at the "my animals" part...didn't know I could pull up others in that section. Paula
I am such a guy. I must have had on my guy glasses when I read your post Sara. I did not even catch the members only part. Sigh. :rofl What does the 1-01 mean? Thank you! Troy
Okay so she was pretty young which probably has something to do with the low score I assume. Good stuff to learn. Thanks!
I just read the Appraisal guide and WOW. I had flipped through it before, but never read it all the way through. For anyone that has not taken the time to read the guide I would suggest you do so. Learn something new every day. :biggrin Troy
LOL....ok, so we've been saying that exact same thing for ummm...years now! One of the best ways to get over barn blindness and learn small things that will help you later down the road. Cheaper and more informative than shows anyday! Oh, thought I'd add that no doe/buck under 2 can score an EX overall. Reason yearling scores don't excite me-good or bad. Kaye
Appraisal Guide...? Would that be Article X in the ADGA guidebook, or are you referring to something else?
Something else. The ADGA linear apprasial handbook. Think it's $3. Best 3 bucks you ever spent. Used to be online but download took forever and 2 days. Kaye
We tried to order one by snail mail and they told us you have to order it online and print it out, they no longer mail out the booklet. We have the printout at home. Anyway, that is what Troy said (this is Michelle responding). Michelle
They are going to drag us all into the computer age. They are upping registration done by snail mail also, to force online registrations! Guess I will have to drag out that ole pin number Vicki
Online registration is SOOO much easier and quicker, I have used it since it became available. And I believe the LA booklet is still downloadable, there is a link to it in the member's-only section. At least if what you are referring to is all the different diagrams and such...I just downloaded it.
Vicki, when is this going into affect?? I am about to send all my paperwork in by snail mail but I don't want to if its going to cost me more!
