[QUOTE="J+ Cattle, post: 1725524, member: 4063"] Let me see if I understand your meaning and if not, you can correct me. You want a sire that has been linebred (increased inbred coefficient) because he will have more matched-up pairs of genes and therefore more likely to pass on his traits. I watched a video about the Ohlde operation where he talked about some of his cattle pedigrees containing certain animals up to 8 times. My commercial cow base started with heifers of unknown original and over the last 15 years I've retained heifers from them using bulls with Traveler X N Bar Emulation EXT on the top and bottom side in their pedigree.
