[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1208875, member: 9267"] Oh yeah, not that I really know anything about long term outcomes but just in case my colourful cows got over-mongrelised... I stick with three breeds per individual. I might have seven or eight breeds wandering about in the herd right now, but a three way cross would always be bred back to one of the original three breeds of her make-up. Exception is for terminal where the progeny won't be kept - I'll happily put an Angus straw into a 3-way crossed dairy cow and sell the resulting calf. That's just what I do, can't say I've seen good/bad results in any direction as long as the parents are suited to my type of system. [/QUOTE]
