[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1507328, member: 14585"] As previously discussed the problem with DD as a genetic defect isn't the very rare DD calf born, it's the unseen embryonic deaths it causes when crossed with another dd carrier. Both Predestined and GAR 5050 dd carriers and in bottom 20% and 5% hp. How much drag on fertility is caused by DD is unknown, but it does lower fertility. 036 is in bottom 30% hp, 25% lower than expected based on scrotal circumference. Many loved 036 and Predestined daughters, but even in their hey-day they had a very low percentage of pathfinder daughters, disproportionately so when compared to all of the bragging by their owners.
