[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 321128, member: 4353"] Sorry for chirping in late on this thread, but although I have nothing against smaller cattle I am definately not interested in any breed of cattle that are continually selected for an even smaler frame size. I think that eventually by continuing this single trait selection all the growth are going to be bred out of them and more than likely other faults will creep in. If the minitures decided they wanted to be a frame 1 or even a frame 0 its fine by me, but it seems like they are chasing a frame 0000 or even smaller if possible. Surely there must be a minimum frame size and below that cattle won't be functional or profitable. i'm sure we all remember the consequences of chasing the other extreme. [/QUOTE]
