[QUOTE="dun, post: 40241, member: 34"] It isn't/wasn't the Milking Shorthorns that ruined the breed. It was the Chi and Maine influence that brought them to where they are today. The whole hair issue is based on the length of hair that the show/clubby SHorthorns have. It's almost as extreme as the differnce between a regular haired weaniedog and the long haired version. We have one Red Angus that never really slicks out, but with her it's more of a woolybooger look then just long hair. The shorter hair I don't think is really a fertility thing as much as it is a heat thing affecting the viabliity of the embryo because of the increased body temp of the cow. Just my opinions of course dun [/QUOTE]
