[QUOTE="VLS_GUY, post: 887745, member: 13182"] The most these type of cattle have to walk is on level ground on a tame pasture. Most of the time they are housed. The BB I saw here panting while lying down like a winded dog when it was 90 degrees out. The idea of these cows rustling or bulls covering cows on rough ground falls under the heading of notgunnahappen.com. Anther big problem these double muscled cattle do not breed well. Delayed sexual maturity and poor fertility are the order of the day. The demand for the lean beef from such animals stems at least in part from different cooking methods used and the feeling that buying fat is like buying waste. Also keep in mind that fatty beef is problem for people on fat restricted diets this would make for a natural market for such animals. The beef is also very tender due to the muscle fibers being larger for the same amount of connective tissue. The production problems for use in extensive systems are very large however. Right now the typical American herd could get plenty of improvement by using normal continental reeds with out double muscling. [/QUOTE]
