[QUOTE="cbcr, post: 1557191, member: 16303"] I would have to agree with this. It seems that all the bull studs want to get genetics from the same few breeders, big breeders at that. They won't even give the time of day to the small breeder, but they sure want their business when it comes to selling semen. I wonder what the inbreeding is on the Angus breed? With all of the bull studs chasing the same genetics it could end up like the Holstein dairy breed. Saw that the inbreeding of the youg genomic Holstein bulls is around 11 - 16%. How many bulls that are from small breeders could producer better offspring that many of the AI bulls? [/QUOTE]
