Before You Use the Lab Finder
This address book is provided as a breeder resource to help you find a starting point for goat testing. Lab test menus, fees, sample requirements, accepted submission types, and turnaround times can change.
Always confirm directly with the laboratory before collecting or shipping samples.
HSFGR Breeder Resource
Goat Lab Address Book
Choose the tests you are looking for, then let the Lab Finder show which listed labs may cover them. Always confirm current test menus, prices, sample requirements, and submission rules directly with the lab before collecting or shipping samples.
Find a Lab by Test Type
Select one or more tests. Use “all selected tests” when you want one lab that may cover everything on your list.
Johne’s testing note
Johne’s testing can be complicated. Blood and fecal testing answer different questions. A fecal PCR looks for MAP DNA in manure and can help identify shedding, but a negative result does not always rule out infection, especially early in disease or during non-shedding periods. Work with your veterinarian and the lab to choose the right test and repeat-testing plan.

Before You Ship
Confirm the current submission form, sample type, tube type, shipping day, turnaround time, and whether owner-submitted samples are accepted. Keep a copy of the official report in your herd files. HSFGR does not diagnose disease, interpret results as veterinary advice, or certify herd-health status.
Johne’s Testing Note
Johne’s testing can be difficult to interpret because infected animals may not shed consistently. Blood testing and fecal testing answer different questions, and a negative result does not always rule out infection, especially early in disease or during non-shedding periods.
If Johne’s is a concern, work with your veterinarian and the laboratory to choose the right test, timing, and repeat-testing plan.
Important Disclaimer
The HSFGR Goat Lab Address Book is an informational resource only. HSFGR does not diagnose disease, provide veterinary medical advice, interpret laboratory results as medical guidance, certify herd-health status, or guarantee that any listed laboratory is appropriate for a specific animal, herd, disease concern, or legal requirement.
Laboratories are listed as possible resources for breeders to investigate. Inclusion in this address book does not mean HSFGR endorses, approves, guarantees, or certifies a laboratory, its testing methods, its results, its turnaround time, or its current availability.
Breeders are responsible for confirming all current testing information directly with the laboratory, including sample type, tube type, collection instructions, shipping instructions, submission forms, pricing, owner-submission rules, veterinarian requirements, and result-reporting format.
Disease testing should be discussed with a licensed veterinarian, especially when animals are sick, exposed, aborting, showing clinical signs, being sold, entering a herd, or being tested for regulatory or biosecurity purposes.
A test result reflects the sample submitted, the test performed, and the date of testing. No single test result should be treated as a permanent guarantee of herd or animal health.
