I have some questions regarding registering some 1/2 blood simmental calves. Would experts be willing to give me some advice?

I bred some commercial females with Grandmaster semen, are the registerable? Or did I need to get a semen certificate? Any other advice.
Hi All,
Here is the excerpt from the American Simmental Association that will answer your question:
PARENTAGE
Dam's ASA registration number: This is a unique number assigned by the Association to a dam at the time she was registered. If the dam is not registered with ASA, then a permanent identification-not a name-year of birth and her percentage breeds such as 100 Angus or 1/2 Mix and 1/2 Hereford are required.Sire's ASA registration number: This is a unique number assigned by the Association to the sire at the time he was registered. The sire must be registered in the Simmental or Simbrah herdbook before a calf can be registered.
Breeders using sires of another breed can register calves as Simmental provided the other breed sire is registered with his breed association and then with ASA and the dam is a registered Simmental
Hope this helps you,
Kevin

No certificate needed, and you can registers the calves as half blood.

They are angus hereford cross females, mainly angus. Will they require testing?

I registered all my % bred cattle last fall and this spring. They just came back trait trac yellow on the angus dam's but I still got papers. I'm going to test all dam's I have left and try and get to all green status....
