[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1055737, member: 17767"] Check this out. Looks like Ken in Australia was correct. wbvs58 posted this to my thread on the New Day heifer on 9/7/13. Good forethought Ken: [i]Lovely heifer Ron, I see no need to test her other than for your own curiosity. You are not a seedstock producer, it is the job of seedstock producers to test and drift away from carriers and supply clean bulls. The genetics that carry this gene have been heavily used for over 20 years with no perceived problems until just the other day. If it is much of a problem then I think we are a bit slow on the uptake. By the way Ron they are now finding normal animals that are homozygous cc. It is only an assumption that the majority of cc embryos die. I think it is more likely that the developing embryo corrects the defect and hence now the normal homozygous cc are showing up.
