[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1781493, member: 24565"] Industry definition: "Using "curvebender" bulls (low birthweight but aggressive growth to weaning and yearling) through artificial insemination can result in calves being born three weeks earlier than the calculated due date from AI. In fact, many cattlemen report having all their calves from timed AI on the ground before the 283 day mark." source: [URL='https://www.feedlotmagazine.com/news/cow_calf_corner/gestation-length-calves-arrive-sooner-than-they-used-to/article_2a51d0ab-7e71-5cd8-aacc-6bda8ae6e5ff.html']feedlot magazine[/URL] I glanced at the articles. They really didn't have any info that jumped out at me to tell me that a great trait is always linked to a mutation. There are linked traits and linked genes, but the assumption that the great comes with the bad is not clear. [/QUOTE]
