Registration Procedures
............
Navajo-Churro sheep, if at least 12 months old and in fleece, may be registered if they conform to the Breed
Standards. Sheep are registered On-Site or by Mail-In. Forms are available
from N-CSA. Click here for a printable registration form.
On-Site Registration and Inspectors
Applicants should provide catch pens and help restrain animals.
All forms must be filled out before the inspector arrives. Sheep
must have ear tags or tattoos. A picture is required of all rams.
The cost of travel/expenses has to be arranged between owner and
inspector. Standard fees to N-CSA are listed below. Current inspectors
are: Connie Taylor (Hoehne, CO), John Harper (Ukiah, CA), Dr. Jim Sachse (Las Cruces, NM), Ingrid Painter
(Brownsville, OR), Jim D. Keyes (Monticello, UT), Marion Stanley (Kings City, CA), Joe Benally (Piñon, AZ), Antonio Manzanares (Tierra Amarilla, NM), Johnny Tom (Aztec, NM), Dr. Lyle McNeal (Logan, UT), Jay Begay (Kykotsmovi, AZ), Doug Montgomery (Newberg, OR).
Mail-In Registration
A registration application must be filled out to the best of your
knowledge, and photos and a fleece sample from midside should
be attached to the back of each application. Note where purchased
if breeder is unknown. A short application form is available for
A Book and higher sheep.
For Mail-In, two photos of every sheep are required (good digital photos are acceptable if printed on photo quality
paper) - one from the side and in fleece, and one from the rear
showing the tail. We also need good photos of ram's horns. Write
the sheep ID (name and/or tag number) and date photo was taken
on back of each photo. Mail forms to Micki Jones (hard copies are required). At least two inspectors will process your sheep.
No inspector judges their own sheep line.
Transfer of Ownership
It is the responsibility of the SELLER to complete the transfer
section on the back of the Certificate and send in the Certificate
of Registration papers to the N-CSA with $2 per head. Do not change
tag numbers or names. Send the Certificate and fees to Registrar,
Connie Taylor (address below). She will record the transfer, send
the papers to the BUYER and publish the transfer in the Flock
Book.
Pending or Temporary Certification for Lambs or Show
This type of registration is used: 1) when Show Certificates are
needed in a hurry; 2) when lambs younger than 6 months old need
documents at point of sale; 3) when any sheep needs Appendix status
while further information is collected. To be eligible the sheep
must be the progeny of registered parents.
Send in standard form and fees as per instructions above and indicate
SHOW or LAMB CERTIFICATION is needed. A temporary certificate
is issued which is viable for one year. When the sheep is mature,
send in mature photo, fleece sample and $1 attached to the temporary
certificate. An N-CSA Certificate of Registration will be issued
if sheep conforms.
Sire Certification
If you do not own the sire, the ram owner must verify the breeding.
We have forms or will accept signed statements. Owner of ewe at
time of breeding is considered BREEDER.
