[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1823419, member: 16453"] Why Mark? I don't follow your reasoning, all that needs to be replaced is the bull it is obvious that both the bull and that cow are DD carriers, if the bull was replaced with a registered Angus bull you can be assured that it will be free of DD by testing or by pedigree. The OP is looking at ways to improve his herd so a quality registered Angus bull would be a step in the right direction. The Beefmaster would be another alternative however by the looks of the dam the genetics might be a bit unknown there. Getting a dink calf like that from salebarn cows of unknown origin my mind immediately goes to BVD, PI. Ken [/QUOTE]
