[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1725360, member: 16453"] I don't think things have changed any, like recessive genetic conditions where if both parents are carriers the offspring has a 1 in 4 chance of seeing the condition expressed. EPD's and EBV's make the assumption that traits get averaged out from both parents but this a starting point until data modifies things a bit. Ken [/QUOTE]
