Members need to record a breeding certificate when they sell bred ewes or use their ram to cover ewes owned by another member. If you’re not sure when to use this form, refer to the registry rules. While you can use the paper form to do this, the Grassroots system makes it much simpler. This post will provide instructions for recording a breeding certificate online.

Step by Step Instructions to Record a Breeding Certificate

1. Log on to Grassroots
2. Hover your mouse over the pancake stack in the upper right corner of the window.
3. Click Service Certificates.
4. Select the ram that covered ewes that you do not own.
5. Enter the dates the ram was with the ewes.
6. Click the orange Next button in the lower right corner of the window.
7. Search for the owner of the ewes using their name or member number.
8. Click on the applicable owner.
9. Select the ewes that your ram covered by ticking the box(es).
10. Click the orange Next button in the lower right corner of the window.
11. Confirm that the list is correct, then click the orange Submit button in the lower right corner of the window.
12. Retain a copy of the Service (Breeding) Certificate that automatically downloads to your computer for your records.

That’s it! You don’t need to mail anything and the Breeding Certificate is recorded with the registrar. You can watch the video below for a walk-through of the process.
