I was wondering how many other people on this board are confused about how you can start registries for cross cattle in their first year?? Their seems to be Black everything now and they are making EPD's for them on the first generation... not sure how this works if anybody understand how they can figure that stuff out let me know.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what your wanting or not.
I am not sure how other breed registeries work, but, this is how the American Simmental Assoc. is.
Cross bred cow bred to Reg. Simbrah bull = 1/2 % Reg. Simbrah heifer.
That 1/2 reg. Heifer bred to Reg. Simbrah bull =3/4 % Reg.Simbrah heifer
That 3/4 reg. heifer bred to Reg.Simbrah bull = Purebred Simbrah heifer.
Heifer 3rd generation is Purebred Simbrah.
Each reg. will produce EPD's, but, the accuracy number will be low percentage. But, 1st calf Reg. heifer's have low accuracy numbers too.
Watch you accuracy percentage numbers.
If this isn't what you wanted, sorry, just trying to help.
