Where do you send a sample for DNA breed purity testing?
Does it break down the percentages by breed?
I would like to verify my Galloway conspiracy theory on old style Shorthorns so I can select for a percentage of Galloway for my 4wd Shorthorn program.
Not being rude or judgmental,  just practical. Also I need to sort out high maintenance growth infusions and look for Lincoln Red.

Also looking for this kind test.
Read many scientific papers about this matter, but not got a lab to do it!
Wish test the pure UK sêmen that I own and check if it is really it!
I think that DNA test will finnish this kind discussions so common here.

What's ol boy's name that bred the American muscle bull.  He's had all of his cows DNA verified as 100% Shorthorn....  (lol)
