[QUOTE="Mark Reynolds, post: 1807249, member: 43196"] Inbreeding, or linebreeding, is an accepted way to draw out or enhance specific characteristics that may be a goal that is being aimed for. There are disadvantages to the practice as well. If a producer is trying to create breeding animals to sell and be producers in someones herd, then it's definitely a good practice. If a producer is trying to produce animals for market/slaughter, Then crossing breeds or at least avoiding inbreeding in order to gain hybrid vigor is likely a better practice. The way and how you breed should depend on what your objectives are. What is right for one producer may be disastrous for another. [/QUOTE]
