[QUOTE="mtnman, post: 53633, member: 836"] Typical response from an Angus breeder, obviously misplacing a few facts about a number of little things like DWARFISM, and total herd reporting, along with a more solid genetic evaluation geared toward actually improving female traits, rather than just talking about them, in favor of the Red Angus breed vs the Black Angus. Obviously, while the Red Angus were chasing color, performance, and female traits, the Black Angus must not have been chasing too much frame, too little muscle, loss of maternal traits, loss of fleshing ability, too much birthweight, now marbling, high retail product(may I remind you, TERMINAL traits?), along with designing EPD more geared toward marketing, rather than breed improvement. mtnman [/QUOTE]
