Please feel free to post your EIC results under this sticky heading.
Please also be sure of any information you post as fact about genetic science. It may not be readily evident, but I do get contacted behind the scenes by concerned parties. The concern is valid and centers around misinformation getting posted on widely-read threads, which then becomes generally accepted as fact. Sometimes it is no big deal. Other times, it really can mis-serve the purpose of the board by propogating misinformation. So please, if you are going to cite statistics, factual scientific genetic info, etc. please have some science or valid reference to back it up.
In short, as always, please be accountable for the information you post on RTF. Please also remember that the EIC test just came out as commercially available. Be considerate to others in the manner in which you present your results, please.
Also, I want to clarify that I have not at all had issue with any of the folks at the Univ. of MN. It has been a while, but I have spoken with some of the folks there, long ago when the test was under development. They have NEVER contacted me with any issue about some of the misinformation that folks have posted on RTF. I'm not saying that they never will, but so far, they have not. Nonetheless, please be mindful that the paragraph in bold is followed. Thanks!
Thanks! Chris
(My apologies to Mark Sehon. I tried to merge his results into this thread and I botched it all up! So I have tried to restore his results thread to its original condition.)
from two different dams whose EIC status is not known at this time and was not known at the time of breeding.
From the amount of carriers being reported I would think that EIC is going to take a significant time period before it can be eleminated from Labradors.
Sire: Clear of EIC
My two 7 & 8 month old pups out of the above sire.

Doubt anyone would be interested, since he's a show dog (nothing field-bred close in his pedigree, and we're just getting into hunt test training- having a blast doing it, though!), but...

Missy, you and Dan have been "first class" with me ever since we talked about breeding Taffey. After hearing from you a few weeks ago, I held off posting my EIC results because of what you said you were going to to. Thanks for confirming what I have always thought.
