Over the years the popularity of fullbloods of most of the Continental breeds has declined. There are only a handful of breeders still actively raising fullblood Maines, Chi's, South Devons, and Gelbviehs.
However there still seems to be a fair amount of fullblood Limmy's being produced and several breeders of Fleckvieh (one of the strains of Fullblood Simmentals) are having some success merchandising their cattle.
Any thoughts out there on why the fullblood Limmy's and Simmy's continue to have quite a bit of commercial success? Any thoughts on why the other Continental fullbloods are not having much success?
