[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 350827, member: 1604"] That cow had me 11 other calves that were good solid stock. Her daughters, 3 or 4 at guessing, have not had any undesireables. I'm not totally against linebreeding, we have done it for years. I'm just saying when you match a son to his dam you can have a problem. That's what I describe as "Inbreeding". Like I said earlier, 1/2 sibs to 1/2 sibs is as close as I'll get anymore. And even then you can see some degradation in growth traits. [/QUOTE]
