I have a heifer who I trying to figure out how much % simmental she is, hopefully can get some help.

                             Macho (Registered PB)
Sire- 9K Gold Key(Registered 1/2)
                            Who Made Who

                            BS Mr Arapahoe (Registered PB)
Dam- Unregistered
                             Unregistered

So if anyone could let me know what she should be registered it would help a lot. Thanks.

Since the dam is unregistered, your calf would register as a 1/4 blood unless you go back and register the dam out of Arapahoe before you register this progeny sired by Gold Key. If you register the dam as a 1/2 blood, then your calf would also be registered as a 1/2 blood. One thing to keep in mind...depending on the genetic make up of the unregistered maternal grand dam and the genetic defect status of Who Made Who with ASA, your calf may get a TraitTrac status of yellow or pink unless you test for potential genetic defects. For instance, if that cow in the pedigree is a commercial Angus cow, she would carry a population risk for AM, NH and CA. The calf would have to be tested and cleared to get the Green status. Otherwise, she'll have a Yellow status showing her as population risk as well.

Hope that helps!

I was saying that I know "Unregistered" means zero%

Ya, I know... and then I said, why would you ask then what percent your calf was--  you know the sire was 1/2.. and 1/2 of 1/2 is 1/4.. if unregistered equals zero %.
