[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14670"] It can be and is done frequently. However, you have to be totally sure that the bull has exactly the traits that you want. The dairy industry generally doesn't like to have any more with more then 12.5% being traced to any particular animal, I kind of agree with that. Just my opinion. dunmovin farms > Could anyone let me know about in > breeding? If we are desiring to > keep heifers for breeding > purposes, can they breed with > their "father"?
