[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 651485, member: 968"] EatBeef & Oldtimer - you are exactly right. The word "Fullblood" in the Simmental & Limo breed MEANS 100% from imported cattle. "Purebred" means "fullblood" bulls were used on American cattle & UPGRADED. There shouldn't be any black FULLBLOODS. Well, I'll backtract a little on the Simmental breed. There was a time when people discovered imported "Fullblood" Simmentals actually contained more "other breeds" from European upgraded cattle than some of our upgraded Purebreds. So, the ASA made the rule change that "imported Fullbloods" had to go back 5 generations of Fullbloods in the European Herdbooks. Our breed actually marks the registration papers as Purebred or Fullbloods. Remember, we're not the only country that crossbreeds :banana: The problem is that too many people don't understand the difference between Fullbloods & Purebreds. They think because they are registered PUREBREDS that that also means they are fullbloods. NOT! Lot of times it's just a misuse of a word. [/QUOTE]
