[QUOTE="Katpau, post: 1830097, member: 9933"] Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Simmental's also have a breed up program. I think it takes 7/8 percentage registered Simmental blood to be registered as a purebred. So they would be similar to Murray Grey. I suspect both programs may have other conditions that must be met beyond that percentage. All breeds began with someone deciding they wanted to preserve specific attributes. Registries were formed, rules were set and only certain animals were allowed to participate. Eventually the registries were either closed, with no outside animals allowed (such as Black Angus and Hereford), or they remained open to additional animals that met certain requirements. The RAAA (Red Angus Assn of America) allows you to register red calves out of AAA registered black cows. The AAA (black Angus) does not allow registration of a black calf out of a red cow. AAA does allow registration of a black animal that carries the recessive red gene however. [/QUOTE]
