[QUOTE="robert, post: 648817, member: 9171"] It's too bad it's only being dealt with now, could and should have been addressed long ago. Linebreeding IS the solution that needs to be adopted for testing sires, seems to me that when bulls with 1000's of progeny 'suddenly' show up siring defects when it could have been addressed when a sire has, say, 1000 registered progeny and mating 35 or 40 of their daughters to their sire BEFORE they go on to sire 8, 10 or 12,000 calves in a single year.
