[QUOTE="Jovid, post: 880983, member: 2979"] First of all he is a nice bull. For all the newbies and I guess for some of the old timers there is no blood test to determine the "breed" of a bull or cow. Most cattle associations require blood or DNA testing of all bulls used for AI. This is to determine parentage of an animal not breed type. The only way to know if an animal is 100 % of the breed he is supposed to be you would need DNA from every animal in his pedigree and a DNA bank of all animals in that breed. I believe they are doing some testing in Australia to see if this is even possible. I don't think any of us can say our breeds are 100 % pure in today's world. Just my opinion [/QUOTE]
