[QUOTE="Nkline, post: 1692152, member: 41001"] HP is tricky, as sometimes the fattest heifer in the pen will have problems getting pregnant. If the fattest heifer in the pen was the norm and they were fed accordingly would you have pregnancy issues? For HP I try to stay away from lines with know problems, and outlier low scoring bulls. Genomics are getting better, but have a hard time finding unique gene variants that may be superior. So low usage pedigrees have a real possibility of being misrepresented by both Epds and genomics.
