[QUOTE="alisonb, post: 1042477, member: 13050"] Have always believed that a 'roach' back is a genetic trait and may be passed on from one generation to the next. When selecting an animal it should have good top line not one that is roached and has skeletal deformities, spinal issues. Certainly an undesirable trait to breed into a herd. Arched or swayed are perhaps more appropriate terms for an animal that has developed an arched back due to arthritis, hardware etc??? Can someone please enlighten me..... :help: [/QUOTE]
