[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1390988, member: 9096"] Wow, so that's 43 descendents you currently have? or that you've kept in total?.. I have 22 cows from 5 families (1 is going extinct), and I think I've kept about 19 from some of them, so it's about the same ratio.. Ironically, the family I kept the most from doesn't have the most members in the herd.. I had to keep so many because they kept failing! (thankfully they're better now) The family that I've kept less animals from (14 of 72 total) makes up a full third of my herd now with 8 of them still around.. Sometimes slow and steady does win the race.. makes a good argument for long lived cows at least [/QUOTE]
