Registering Hebridean Sheep
Registration is available to member flocks of the Society only, subject to the following procedures and regulations:
- Only animals that are the progeny of fully registered parents are eligible for registration.
- All lambs for registration should be identity tagged at birth (the Birth Tag) and a record made of their parentage.
Details of the Birth Tag must be provided on the Registration form.
- Births of ALL lambs should be notified on the Registration Form.
- Those animals that are to be registered must conform to the Breed Description. A programme of Flock Inspection will be used to verify this.

Pliers for inserting this metal registration tag are available from: Ketchum Manufacturing Company Ltd, Tadworth, Surrey, United Kingdom, KT20 5RE.
