    Hi All,

    I was just wondering if there is a form I can download to change the sex of a calf it was registered wrong at birth. I know the Vet has to sign a form but is it from the vet i get the form or is it from the department. Thanks.

    If there's no panic on you to sell the calf wait until your round test and it'll be sorted out. If you're going to finish the calf don't bother doing anything. I sent a heifer to the factory a couple of weeks ago with the finest set of balls you ever saw on a female outside of those certain dark little corners of the internet seemingly frequented by some posters on here to judge by some of the links they post from time to time:D.

    Ring the dept, they will post you out the form.
    I think this is the form but I'm not fully sure http://www.agridata.ie/daf_forms/ER%2094C.pdf

    I thought it was the Form ER94(b) but I don't see it on the website.

    Now I'm off to hang lights in the shed! Tis the season to be off your trolley and all that.

    You'll need more than a form. A good knife maybe.:D

    You need to get form ER94 B from your local DVO. If you phone them they might email it to you if you ask nicely.

    Hi sorry for resurrecting a long dead thread but,

    Is there any facility on agfood to change the sex of an animal or do you still have to do it the old fashioned way by posting in the form? Thanks

    You can change it before it’s processed (a few hours usually). Otherwise it’s the form. Easy enough. Did two last year that I mixed sexes up during reg.


    no vet sign off or anything like that anymore.

    Given the original thread was 8 years ago, a lot has changed in the meantime. Under new rules coming in next year, all tags must have a number and preferred pronouns for the calf. e.g "001234 (she/her)" for heifers.

    Freemartins are where you're gonna get complications.
