[QUOTE="libertygarden, post: 1647599, member: 25299"] I don't want to hi-jack this thread but since it has been inactive for almost a year and my question is related, I figured to post it here instead of opening a new thread. So, is breeding a heifer back to its grandpa a big deal? Conditions: Grandpa Bull had Bull calf that bread with a cow from a different herd and had a heifer that bread back to Grandpa Bull. What degree of inbreeding is this and is it a big deal? By my math we're talking of 1/4 inline breeding? Thank you. [/QUOTE]
