[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 63868, member: 440"] I raise registered Texas Longhorn cattle and linebreeding or inbreeding doesn't concern me at all nor does it seem to bother any other breeders that I know. When I'm purchasing an animal I always look at the pedigree but I don't care if the animal is line bred or inbred as long as it meets the general criteria and has the traits that I'm looking for. One of my herd sires goes back to the great Longhorn bull King four times in his pedigree. This just sets in the traits and will make his offspring more uniform in appearance. If I do inbreed an animal I won't take that offspring and breed back to a parent or sibling. I will breed that animal back to someone is is not related. Inbreeding can be very bad if you continue to breed back to the relatives but can be very good if you do it a time or two, you just have to be careful. [/QUOTE]
