[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1761652, member: 40587"] Actually, the continental breeds that have breed up programs with one registry, have pretty much turned their breed into crossbreds. I admire Hereford for not registering BHS, Brafords, etc. and AAA for not registering Brangus, Chi-angus etc. Chianina is a continental breed that has not been contaminated or diluted by "breeding up"... introducing other breeds. Thet keep the Chi-Angus books, but it is a different registry. I think what happened to simmental is the worst tragecy. There was aboslutley no point in turning them part-bred Angus black. If you take a pb Fleckvieh..the closest you can get to the original simmental that came here, and brred it to a pb Angus, the resulting calf will have a lot more high bread vinegar, and be a much better calf, than crosssing a Black SImm with a Black Simm. And THAT was the original intent of the CAB..to encourage breeders of other breeds to cross with pb black Angus, This not only created more market for angus cows and bulls, but would have increased the market for the breeds that produced the best calves [/QUOTE]
