[QUOTE="dun, post: 285850, member: 34"] I'm glad you threw the "in theory" part. While todays bulls may be considered "better", the question is better then what. I would think that some of those older bulls could still provide some valid inputs into todays cattle herds. A lot of those older bulls were from before the bigger (and even bigger) is better concept, and could be used to downsize todays herds without causing problems. I used to breed a young ladys Jerseys to a bull that was only put up in magic wands. Those things predated ampules. She ended up with a herd of older style Jerseys that were good foragers, sound structured good producing cows that were as similar as peas in a pod. dun [/QUOTE]
