[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1208874, member: 9267"] Sure there is. When the black part of the Hereford came from Holstein :hide: 'bout the horned versus polled debate, I been wondering why horned breeders wouldn't make them polled by crossing in the polled type then selecting for the superior traits associated with horned Hereford till they've got a consistently polled Horned Hereford? Or is it marketing the resulting polled animal as a horned Hereford that is the issue? Seems that's what's being done with most of the dairy breeds now - crossing in the polled gene then breeding from the best of the progeny that carry that polled gene. [/QUOTE]
