[QUOTE="robert, post: 801268, member: 9171"] nice functional, typey cattle Dylan Biggs, the red calf has a real herd bull look to him, the old black bull looks like a real cow maker. There is only one reason we still use a mainstream AI sire in our breeding program rather than only our home raised bulls, and it isn't the quality of the calves, it is to maintain linkage with the mainstream population so that your EPD's don't go down the pan in the out-crossing, latest greatest to fix the problems of the last latest-greatest, scheme that genetic evaluation has become. EPD's today are the baby beef and frame score race of the past. [/QUOTE]
