[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1498498, member: 20599"] Thanks jdg, and everyone else as well. This sheds a bit more light. Is it fair to say that, even though the marbling EPDs might not be 100% reliable (especially when applied to grass performance), that a sire that is 1.2 for marbling will likely produce better-marbled offspring than one that is .4? ie, that is might not be totally reliable but is at least worth taking into account (and trying to stay away form sires with super-low marbling EPD?)
