[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1807500, member: 968"] [USER=42463]@Travlr[/USER] - I get where you mindset is - but, INBREEDING is used to FIND defects. And LINEBREEDING is used to increase the good traits breeders are looking for. I always say: "It's inbreeding if you get a screwup - it's linebreeding if it works out!!" LOL Not trying to make anyone upset either - but - I truly believe all the bad phenotype bad traits showing up in the Angus is because the breeders are chasing NUMBERS ON PAPER instead of LOOKING at their cattle and breeding to bulls to compliment the cows. Everyone is breeding for a bull with PERFECT numbers (top 10% in this and that - mainly chasing MARBLING. Marbling is an antagonistic trait to muscling. BINGO [/QUOTE]
