[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1534251, member: 27490"] Well, if you are impressed with record keeping, dare I say you are looking at the light end of the log! It is vital but does not require skill or knowledge. Regarding, Broadway- I will not use him in my environment again!!! Breeding is an Art but in today's market of AI AND ET that art requires a knowledge of biology. Breeding is a function of reproductive physiology. Dr. Spears is one of the industry's premier embryo transfer scientist. I took embryology under him 40 years ago. The course was taught like a graduate level reproductive physiology course. Selection is based on the science of genetics - which covers all aspects of phenotype and genotype. Understanding the anatomy of a Bovine is fundamental. Biology is the same science used in veterinarian medicine. I hear some good breeders making statements that are contrary to the science of genetics. In most cases, it does not adversely affect their goals. My point is that biology is the very foundation of animal husbandry. Period. [/QUOTE]
