[QUOTE="ollie, post: 52706, member: 323"] I do not believe that is what the majority of breeders are doing. I believe the majority of commercial breeders are , as they always have been, searching for that extra dollar. The most cost effective way of doing that has been breeding black. Black and nothing more.As a matter of fact I also believe that the main focus of purebred breeders has been similiar but different. They have been turning anything black that grazes grass but they have also been distracted by things that don't improve carcass such as polled heads. They have also been distracted with building epd's that are more desireable than the neighbors.While I would like to agree with you that the majority of us are smarter than our grandads I don't really think we have learned our lesson.
