# O.C.G.A. § 44-14-511. Liens on offspring of stallions, jacks, bulls or boars; necessity of recordation; recording fee; priorities.

The owner or keeper of any stallion, jack, or blooded or imported bull or boar shall have a lien upon the offspring thereof for the service of the stallion, jack, or blooded or imported bull or boar for the period of one year from the birth of the offspring, which lien shall be superior to all other liens except the lien for taxes, provided that the owners shall keep their animals enclosed in their own pastures or otherwise. The lien provided for in this Code section shall not become operative unless it is recorded in the office of the clerk of the superior court of the county where the owner of the mother resides within six months after the performance of the service. The clerk shall keep a book in which all such liens are to be recorded and shall receive a fee as required by subparagraph (f)(1)(A) of Code Section 15-6-77 for recording such liens.
