[QUOTE="robert, post: 1046027, member: 9171"] Depends on the first question whether the animals subsequent to 036 have been tested free or not yet. For the second question history shows some people are totally unscrupulous when it comes to dumping potential carriers on the market. As there is no commercial test available yet, unless the possibility of the defect being passed on has been eliminated through the subsequent descendants used then you have to treat them as potential carriers. A quick scan through my sale animals for this fall shows me I have 2 bulls and 2 heifers who are in an untested descendant line from known carriers (either 036 or Ken Caryl Mr. Angus) so unless the test is available prior to my sale they will be pulled.
