What is a Herd Name?

A herd name is a designate of 4 letters (English alphabet only; no special characters) given to identify a particular breeder/member.  This acronym will be used as the prefix in the name of eligible hedgehogs.  The prefix for ineligible hedgehogs will be designated as one of the following:
          PB - Hedgehogs purchased from private breeders who are not a members of the NAHR.
          P I - Hedgehogs purchased from private individuals who are not breeders or members of the NAHR.
          PR - Hedgehogs purchased from a member of the NAHR who has restricted the pedigree/lineage information.
          PS - Hedgehogs purchased pet shops, auctions, flea markets or other retail sources.

Herd names cannot be changed once assigned

Herd names may be used only once.  If the name you prefer is taken, you must choose another.

Only 1 herd name will be assigned per member.

If a member is part of a co-op, it is required that each individual have their own herd name.
