[QUOTE="ArmyDoc, post: 435541, member: 6832"] Several have posted a 50% rule... can anything be closer than 50%? Oh! Do you mean like a father/daughter offspring (50%) being rebred back to father again? I guess that would be 75%. How far apart do they need to be to not be considered line breeding? Would cousins be considered line breeding? I've seen sites recommending 3 sire rotations. The offspring of sire one is mated to sire 2, that offspring is mated to Sire three, and those back to sire one. Is this considred far enough apart that it would be considered "normal", and not line breeding? What about 2 sire rotations? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
