[QUOTE="AllForage, post: 791493, member: 14878"] Herefords.US, As far as heterosis, isn't that a major consideration in a terminal situation? Does continual outcrossing help one get to his goals of uniformity and consistency? Would you say the Lent's cattle are a good place to start for a foundation? As I stated in my previous post I plan to select towards what I believe is right for my situation after correcting my commercial group. I base a lot of size on final hanging weights. My anxiety crosses have been from 625-750 hanging weights. That is considered ideal I believe by most larger grassfed labels. If that drops then I know we are getting too small. Knersie, I respect your last post. Previous ones did not come across in that way. Time will tell for all of us. [/QUOTE]
