[QUOTE="BEJ, post: 1791620, member: 39888"] Just wondering what everyone’s opinion on how much line breeding is to much…I know the old saying if it works it’s line breeding and if it doesn’t it’s inbreeding but how do you figure out the coefficients? I have just 8 registered Simmental and they all have hooks shearforce in the pedigree 3-5 generations back and majority of the bulls I wanna try on AI all have him within 2-4 generations…I don’t want to get the blood to thick but wouldn’t mind getting my replacements I keep more consistent…side note I have no intention on keeping bulls back just the top end of the heifers to grow and build my herd…thanks!
