[QUOTE="txag, post: 46619, member: 8"] true. i think this is where some of the confusion came from earlier. i was using the term breeds because that's usually the easiest understood but it seems this time it created more confusion. Ruby, when you cross your two brahmans, you still have an F1 but you have no hybrid vigor (that's why in cattle terms, crossing two animals of the same breed is usually not called an F1). anytime you cross two breeds you have hybrid vigor (or heterosity) but the MOST hybrid vigor is seen in a bos taurus/bos indicus cross.
