Can I register and transfer animals via the website?

Yes, you can!

From the SPI home page (www.specklepark.org), click on ‘Studbook’, then ‘ILROnline login’. If you don’t know your login details, please email MSO, Heather Apps at mso@specklepark.org and she will send your details.

Once you have logged in, you will be able to bring up a list of your animals, your member details, and pending registrations.

Under the ‘Actions’ tab you can enter your registrations and transfer animals to their new herd. At this stage, only natural calves can be entered for registration this way however, we are working on the capacity to store recipient dam information. Stay tuned for future updates!

As it is a relatively new system, we appreciate it can take some time to become comfortable using ILROnline. For help, there is a button found at the top right-hand side of the page which contains information and step by step guides on how to complete tasks. Alternatively, a video tutorial can be found on the SPI website as pictured below, with further videos available by searching “ILROnline” on YouTube.

The registration process of Speckle Park calves is a 4-step process. Steps 1 and 2 can be completed simultaneously:

Record the animals with PBB (either using ILROnline for natural calves, the excel spreadsheet located under the “Resources/Forms and Resources” tab on the SPI website, or through your stock recording software).

Complete the DNA Submission form (Neogen for AUS) located under the “Resources/Forms and Resources” tab on the SPI website (you will need to request the SKSTD_BDL test to meet all registration requirements). Email the completed Submission form to dna@pbbnz.com and you will be provided with the relevant paperwork. Do not send your samples away without this paperwork.

Once you have received your paperwork back from Step 2, enclose the received paperwork with the tissue samples and send them to Neogen. The DNA results will be matched with your registration applications, and if all tests are completed successfully your pending registrations recorded in Step 1 will be accepted as processed registrations.

Further information is contained in the DNA Flowchart located in the “Resources/Forms and Resources” section of the website and in the “Instructions” tab at the bottom of the DNA Submission form spreadsheet or contact our Member Services Officer, Heather Apps mso@specklepark.org anytime or 0491 226 990 (Mon-Thur 8.30am to 1.30pm EDST).
