Reminder
Just a friendly reminder to all owners of Registered Watusi cattle. If you have an animal die, please return your certificate to the office for cancellation and updating of records.
New Director
It is with regret that the Board of Directors has accepted the resignation of our Director Jeff Voss from Briley Farm in Oakland, Florida. Jeff’s contributions to the Association with his tireless participation in our operations as well as his management of his herd of quality watusi cattle have greatly improved our Association. Jeff is not leaving us or the cattle, but business interests are making it difficult for him to put as much time into this endeavor. We want to thank him for everything he has done.
The Board has appointed for the balance of Jeff’s term Don Morgan from the CST Ranch in Keystone Heights, Florida. Don can be reached by email at dmorgsupsi@aol.com, his phone number is 352-577-4149. We want to welcome Don to the board and look forward to his vibrant participation.
Registration changes
The rules and regulations of the World Watusi Association have provided from the beginning that all animals registered must be permanently identified either by freeze brand, hot brand or ear tattoo. As many display their animals the brands have not been used in many areas. The Board of Directors has determined that the ear tatoo is too difficult to read in adult animals. For these reasons it has been decided to remove the rule for permanent identification at this time. Photos delineating the markings on the hide and shape of horns are alternatives to these methods as well as a documented ear tag system. It is the breeder’s responsibility to keep proper records of breedings, births and sales. Some of our members have started DNA analysis of their livestock, which would solve any potential future disputes. It is not a requirement at this time, but it is encouraged as a practice.
Another member lost.
