Herdowners can order DNA hair kits through our self-selection screen by logging into their ICBF account online. All the different stages of the order can be tracked using the Genotype tracking screen. Payment can be made using a credit or debit card. Alternatively, you can call ICBF 023 8820452 or email [email protected].
Below is a step by step guide on how to order a genotype online.
- Go to www.icbf.com and login to your ICBF Account using your username (Herd Number) and password.
- Under the ‘Services’ drop down, select ‘Genomic Services’.
- On the Genomic Services screen, select ‘Genotyping Individual Animals’.
- Select the animal type that you wish to genotype from the dropdown menu – ‘Dairy’ or ‘Beef’, then click on the ‘Go’ button. Simply click on ‘Select’ opposite the animal(s) that you wish to genotype, then click on ‘Save Changes’ and ‘Checkout’. This will then take you to the payment screen.
