[QUOTE="Bluestem, post: 476728, member: 3269"] A problem in a linebred herd should show itself early and culled. As linebreeding continues your culled cattle should decrease. A problem should not just show up if you have been linebreeding for some time. I don't think it is necessary to bring in new blood. If I brought another cow in, I would treat her as another herd. Linebreed her offspring for numerous generations. Cull heavy. Introduce that line to my main herd and cull heavy. [/QUOTE]
