[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 502966, member: 1683"] Red Bull Breeder- I agree with your reasoning, UNLESS, in our zeal to acquire some trait in our cattle (you name the trait), we succumb to "single trait selection", at the expense of other more important and influential EPD's, and in the process, lose characteristics which are more PROFITABLE to our businesses. I think that we all know of some breeds which have sacrificed some critical trait(s?) by over-concentrating on one or two OTHER traits - and in the process - LOST chacteristics which have hurt the breed(s).
