Registration Certificates
The CMJA issues three types of registration certificates: Junior, Breeding Stock, and Full Mini.
Junior certificates are temporary certificates and are issued to all animals under 3 years of age.
Once the animal is height verified at 3 years of age, one of the following permanent certificates is issued:
Breeding Stock certificates are issued to all base animals and F1, F2, F3, and F4 crosses after 3 years of age.
Full Mini certificates are issued to all offspring of F4 + F4 crosses after 3 years of age, provided that they meet all breed requirements. After the Miniature Jersey becomes a recognized breed within Canada, animals registered as Full Mini under the current program will be considered Purebred.
